Re: dyskinesia & muscular pains

I went to an ear nose and throat specialist 3 days ago for an ear infection
and he noticed that I was gritting my teeth.  This has been one of the side
effects of my carbidopa from what my nuerologist has told me.  He suggested
Botox injections in the jaw muscles to deal with the problem.  I don't know
much about the Botox, but it felt kind of cheesy, the way it came up.  Sort
of a hard sell, "buy the extended warranty" kind of feeling.  Anybody up to
date on Botox injections?
