I wonder if the intense interest means that a lot of people are really desperate for a better solution for their migraines, or if they're hoping to get some kind of cosmetic benefits out of it as a side effect. I know nothing about Botox as a migraine treatment and whether it's at all similar to how Botox is used cosmetically.Amyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12714078352001622357noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5883634615775822475.post-35915550688324293712010-10-19T13:00:37.035-04:002010-10-19T13:00:37.035-04:00I'd say if you have had 47 desperate phone cal...I'd say if you have had 47 desperate phone calls already that you have some seriously under treated patients!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5883634615775822475.post-88585502214997910702010-10-19T11:55:32.728-04:002010-10-19T11:55:32.728-04:00I think I'll keep taking my Imitrex, thank you...I think I'll keep taking my Imitrex, thank you very much!
