Hi Monica, thank you for your comments of Botox for Painful legs and moving toes sydrome. I have
written to my Neuro and received a negative reply as he says it does not work. How can I get this Neuro to give it a try. I am in so much pain.

I have been getting Boxtox injections for 16 years and have been treated successful. It has allowed me to have a great life and be able to work. I been treated at Lankenau Hospital, Philadelphia, PA by Dr. Gollomp, a movement disorder neurologist. You must been seen by a movement disorder Neurologist. I hope that I have been helpful.

Hi Monica,
I live in Holland and there is no information about moving toes at all on Dutch sites.
I have the syndrome since one and a half year and I have felt very lonely in this syndrome because I cannot find anybody in Holland who has this.
This is the first time I read things from others who have moving toes / painful legs syndrome.
I am very happy for you that you have been succesfully treated with Botox and..........it gives me hope. Thanks a mille for your information. Can you walk normally after you are injected? Does botox stop the pain plus the movement of the toes? Are there side effects from Botox injections? Or is Botox rally a miraculous treatment? It is as like I read a message from heaven.
Thanks again.
Smile, Angela

Hi there!
Went to see my neuro yesterday and he is going to try Botox in my "Painful legs and moving toes Syndrome. At least he is going to try for me.
The lyrica and clonazapam and the pain patch which is Norspan do not seem to give me any relief.

will let you know what the outcome is.

Cheers,

Had Botox injections in my feet and it definately stopped the movement of the toes and also the pain.

However the injection in my left calve did not improve the pain or movement.

Going to Neuro next week for normal consultation.

Has anyone else tried the Botox Injections

Cheers

I was diagnosed with prostrate cancer which had gone to the bone, in 2007 in 2008 my cancer treatment stop working and was given radio therapy which caused my spine to collapse which has left me parapalgic I have no movement from the waist down but my legs go into spasms which are so painful. I had an appointment at the hospital yesterday to see if they could give me a botex injection to relieve the pain but could not have it because Im on such a high dose of claxane to thin the blood. but i was wonderering if it would have work
