I had Botox injections for chronic daily headaches & migraines yesterday afternoon. Typically my headaches are located on my forehead, right above the browline (more over the left eyebrow to the bridge of my nose) & my migraines are left sided. This AM I awoke with a slight headache on the right & by mid AM it had developed into a full blown migraine. It's evening now & even with Maxalt I still have a headache. I thought Botox was supposed to help my head, not make it worse? Is this "normal"?
