Relief for Migraines

Botox for migraines? Sure why not!

When the hammering pain of a headache demands quick relief, what do you reach for?

Bayer, Excedrin or perhaps Tylenol?

Or are you like me and massage the temples and whisper petitions of healing to the powers that rule in the Heavens above? This is my first line of defense, but in nagging cases, I also opt for a little help from the medicine cabinet to accompany my prayers.

I hear that Botox works wonders in stopping the drumming and pain of a migraine. Anyone know anything about this cure? Does it work?
