I joined a migraine support group a couple of years ago which I haven't been active in. I've started posting in there and getting responses from other people regarding their Botox experiences. From what I'm reading common side effects are swelling of the eyelids and the exhaustion. I'm hoping that this will phase out and eventually I will start feeling the positive effects. I can only cross my fingers and hope that I'm one of the ones that Botox injections will work as a preventative. From what I'm gathering from both the neurologist and for the people who are receiving injections, it is usually the second or third injection set (6-9 months down the line!) before they start seeing real results. The last night, I viewed a couple of posts about people that once it gets close to the end of the 3 months they will start getting their migraines back intensely... I am crossing my fingers and praying that that is not me!
