Hi Becky,

Ive had migraines for 20+ yrs... After my strokes I had a constant migraine. I had 2 gon bloks (two injections of steriod and anes in back of head. 1st one worked for a few wks then 2nd one only a few days. You can only have 2 lots in a year.

Had 2 lots of Botox (32 injections around my head/shoulders/neck each time) 1st lot only worked for 6wks , 2nd lot is still working since Feb haven't needed anymore so far and its halved my migraine attacks. Botox inc injections above my eyebrows it made my eyelids droop both times for about 6wks which is just muscles relaxing..

I've tried various pills topermax and others but like u I have low BP which caused an issue. The anti depression types just made me very depressed as I am a naturally positive person.

Hope this helps.

Dawn x
