Health Buzz: Botox for Migraines and Other Health News

botox and migraines

just to add to what I have already written.My daughter is not having botox every three months now. the gap is getting bigger between each treatment as the migraines become less and less. which means the body is getting use to not having them. Which the botox doctor did say could happen. Also the difference between botox working for her and not for me apparantly means that her migraines are stress related and mine are not. Mine are hormonal and hopefully will go after menopause.

Insurance and Botox

I was on Botox study then under insurance coverage of Botox with great relief. When I changed jobs 4 1/2 yrs ago, new insurance will not cover Botox and have been suffering since. I am praying for the day that FDA approves use and insurance will cover. It was like flipping off a light switch for me.

Insurance Problems with Botox for Migraines

I have tried several tripans for migraines. I have had migraines so bad that my body became allergic to the tripan medications because of my extended use. My insurance company (Anthem Blue Cross) used to cover Botox injections for migraines but now has ceased that coverage. I feel when you have an allergy to typical migraine medications the insurance companies should make an exception and pay for the Botox. I have had excellent sucess with my migraines with the Botox.
