Kristy, where did your friend get the injections? My Pain doc mentioned possibly trying them in some of my trigger points (along the sacrum) but I'm gonna stick with the t.point injections for now. I guess it's like everything else....we all have the potential to react differently and that STINKS! *ugh* ~Chelle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 18, 2008 Report Share Posted February 18, 2008 Botox injections are sometimes used to try and relax pelvic floor muscles if PT doesn't help much or in addition to the PT. My friend did it because even though PT helped her some she had to stop doing it because insurance would no longer cover the treatments to try and help her spastic pelvic floor muscles. She was never officially diagnosed with vulvodynia but the pelvic floor issues came because of some other health issues related to the area. She did one Botox injection a couple months or so ago that was supposed to help reduce the spasming and it did not. It made it worse. It made it worse in that the spasms got even worse than they did before the injection. As for the doctor, the doctor was experienced in general with these but according to what she (my friend) said the doctor had not done this procedure often. The only other doctor that would have known how to do this as far as with regularity was in Iowa or some place, a place my friend who is in VT couldn't afford to go to.
