Edit
that is just horrible to have that happen. The first couple of times that I went to the neuologist instead of dr merritt, I felt the same way. Sick and about to pass out and it hurd bad she took her sweet time and tortured me! And then had the nerve to say I can't cure you go to someone else. and that was a nightmare because they wanted to treat me with dry eyes but not blepharospasm so I just go fed up and said no more. Thats when I found this foundation it was longer for the website. Dr merritt was on their list. I rember the first time I saw him I had a real attitude. I said I have been to hell and back and I don't know what to do anymore. He treated me with botox that same day without even getting it approved first. He was so quick with a needle that before I knew it he was done in a few minutes!He gave me a prescription for the cream. it takes alot of the fear out of it. After you put it on the injection sites they are numb you can tap your forehead and eyelids and you wont feel it. personally, I would never,ever go to a doctor who would not give me something for the pain. It is just senless to have to suffer and we have suffered enough. I also have bipolar and my doctor trys me on different things and if I don't like it, he changes it. He has also helped me out alot and wrote stuff for my migraines. I take alot of medications and I'll be damned if I am going to be miserable and suffer and I don't. I go to doctors who are on your side. It would be different If I was a drug addict or something then I could see limiting things. I only take what I have to take but I am not going to suffer period.
