40 Units Botox in Forehead 10 Weeks Ago. 2 days after treatment experinced headaches, extreme fatigue, nausea, loss of appetite & sharp pains & a burning sensation in arms & legs at night. most seemed to resolve after a couple of weeks but the intense burning sensation/tingling continues now both during day & night. now also in arms, legs, hands, feet & sometimes in face all labs came back neg, will be seeing a neurologist soon. my dr says a reaction to botx & should settle down once botox wears off. any thoughts?

The burninng and tingling of arms is not likely related to Botulinum Toxin (Dysport or Botox)

The burninng and tingling of arms is not likely related to Botulinum Toxin (Dysport or Botox) injections that you recieved and it would do us all a great favor if you were to report back to us with the findings of your neurologist.
