Maybe I am dumb, but I just found out what botox really is -- botulism toxin. I don't know about anyone else, but I don't want that in me. What about cortisone injections? What about the injection of local anesthetics? I just started going to a pain clinic myself for constantly sore neck and back and that is what they are going to do for me. I would see if you can get a referral to a pain clinic; they appear to be staffed by anesthesiologists.
