Dear Anne:
Thank you for your letter and information. The botox injections are to be used to control my eye lid spasms-- top and bottom lids close up, as it to wink it's more bothersome and sometimes embarrassing than anything but when both eyes are soing it at the same time, then it can be dangerous while driving. As far as the neck goes it should help with the locked up muscles, but thats not really a hazard, just uncomfortable. The prednisone I started a couple of weeks ago for Chrones has had some benifit as it has easied some inflamation, I had FUO and a very enlarged Lymp node (removed and benign) and finally after many test found illietis (Chrones) Hopefully a month of prednisone (tapering down each week) will help. I have had more energy and my temp hasn't been over 97.4 since a few days after starting it. Small bowel still gives me paon form time to time though. Again, Thank you for your response and I'll check with the dystonia areas to get more info.
Mary
