Health Updates: B.O.M.B. (Back on my BOTOX) (Patreon)

So after several months of failed attempts to find a new migraine medication that works for little Myrna (ie. One that tried to kill me, and one that...well I thought was working, but certainly doesn't work anymore and left me feeling disassociated and got back to almost daily migraines 🫠👍), it's time to get back to Botox!

I know this works. It's expensive 💀, but it works.

My plan for now is to get 1-2 doeses (6 months worth) of Botox and then try something else again once it wears off. Because the effects of the Botox wane, but they last a long time. So if we can find something else that gives me enough relief in the period where the Botox is less effective, but still kind of there, maybe I won't have to spend $1100 to get stabbed anymore 😅🤞

In the meantime, I am looking forward to some relief 🙌 It's only been about a month that my migraines have been almost daily, but holyyyyyy I do not know how I handled it before. It has SUCKED.

BUT while I've done this several times before, I am feeling particularly anxious about it this morning 🫣 It's my first set of injections from this neurologist. What if they mess it up and I have a wonky eyebrow? Or a droopy eyelid? FOR MONTHS! Not that either of those things is a big deal...but I'm also just getting stabbed a bunch of times by essentially a stranger to me 😅

Scary... Wish me luck! T-minus 5-10 minutes 🫣
