I had another botox treatment today to lower my eyebrows, which I've been doing repeatedly for about 1 1/2 years. I never had any side effects before but this time I haven't been so lucky. I have a difficulty to breathe, muscle stiffness in my extremities and had a mild skin reaction with itching on my body shortly after the treatment. My heart rate is also elevated. Like an allergic reaction. I'm not freaked out or anything but my unpleasant
experience today has still convinced me to not use botox again.
Botox treatment is relatively safe since it shouldn't go systemic if done properly and they use miniscule amounts of it. (Usually) not enough to cause botulism (to date there are only 4 reported cases of botox-induced botulism). Maybe my doc accidentally hit a blood vessel or I've developed an intolerance. Idk how many units I got but I think he was a lot more generous than usual.
I need to moneymaxx more to get surgery sooner than planned now, since botox isn't an option for me anymore. I've always considered it a temporary fix anyway.
