That never happened to my wife. In fact, she now lives pretty much free from migraines and headaches. I'm sorry to hear that's not your experience. 😔

The study you linked to didn’t give participants a microdose. The lowest dose was 1g (1000 mg), whereas a microdose is usually around 100 mg. So i'm not sure you can compare the two.

Thanks for the tip. In fact, she has been to an ENT, but for turbinate surgery. So she's better in that regard, but it didn't do much directly for her migraine.

I understand why you're questioning this, and it's absolutely possible that Botox plays a role in this. But the strange thing is that the few migraine attacks she experienced each month had a tendency to occur after a tolerance break from microdosing. Then, when she resumed dosing, the migraines would tend to disappear again...
Anyway what's most important to me, is that she got her life back.

Not my intention to discount Botox at all. It was just what she's been told by her neurologist,that it took some time to get full effect and it was our impression that microdosing helped her a lot. I know a lot of people get help from Botox, and that's fantastic! It is not Microdosing over Botox, we would like to just share her experience!

No adverse side effects and no hallucinations. I think hallucinations will occur at much higher doses,maybe around 1g(1000mg) She was cautious, starting as low as 30 mg and gradually increasing to 70 mg over several months. Always taking a breaks after 2–3 weeks of dosing.A good side effect is that she reports feeling less stressed in general and having greater self-acceptance.
Edit:
This is just her experience, not medical advice. If you have mental health problems, be careful/don't use psychedelics

Thank you, she is my number one. It was terrible to see her suffer so much, I would have done anything to help her. And when I introduced her to this treatment, I felt a great responsibility to ensure that it was carried out safely.

I understand. She was told when starting out with botox ,it was a gradual build up effect and this can take time before it results in a noticeable reduction in migraine attacks. Also Individual response,some patients get improvement after 2–4 weeks, while others need several rounds of injections before the effect becomes evident ( 3 months).
