He's been trying to eat foods rich in potassium (like bananas, fish, etc.) to help with the neck spasms .  I haven't read anything anywhere about a connection between potassium and the relief of neck spasms but it was encouraging to read about the Botox.  Are the treatments terribly expensive and does insurance cover them?
