What specific problems do you want addressed?  Yes, Botox has helped my severe 24/7 migraines caused by my stroke.as well as my severely cramped up toes, a spasticity caused by my stroke.  But Botox is used for other problems as well.

So please let me know what problems you are looking to get help for.
