I have to take Botox injections in my calf muscles every 12 weeks for leg cramps and freezing gait. The injections last about 8 weeks, then the leg cramps return. It is important to note that exercise is a must for PD and the more you exercise the muscles that are injected with Botox the faster the Botox leaves your body! The freezing gait has slightly improved.

I also get the injections in the bottom of both feet because of peripheral neuropathy. These are painful but I believe they are worth it.

Yes, I have been using Botox for about a year. Injections ared somewhat painful but in the end it does seem to be worth the initial discomfort..

Botox is injected into both of my calf muscles and does help my gait.
