Are There Any Early Indications I May End Up with Eye Droop After Dysport Injections?

I had 50 units of Dysport injected 3 days ago. Approx. 30 minutes later I noticed what I would describe as numbness around my right eye. After 3 days my eye feels funny and a little twitchy but not droopy.... I am concerned that as the product takes full affect that I will end up with eye droop which has left me with so much anxiety I am actually worrying myself sick. After 3 days I am down 7 pounds. Has anyone had notable symptoms prior to ending up with eye droop?

I had it done for my 11's. The "V" area. I am currently on day 6 and I am starting to notice an improvement in my overall feeling. My eye is still normal. I did have swelling above my right brow for 3-4 days.
