Just wondering if anyone has had botox injections for any form of tremor and how successful it was?
I have being diagnosed with a palatal tremor (have had it for nearly a year) which is not thought to have a serious cause. However, it is really annoying and affecting me on a day to day basis.
The only solution being offered is to have botox injections straight into the muscles on each side of my palate. I am a bit afraid of this incase it affects my swallowing. It only lasts 3-4 months (good or bad effects) so if it is awful I don't have to have it again.
I haven't completely lost hope of the tremor disappearing on its own yet but am thinking of the botox option if I still have it in 6 months to a years time.
