  Katy, how long before your symptoms disappeared? Did you contact the company or ask for reimbursement?

  Hi MissMissy; Wondering what happened in the end with the dysport? Did everything go away? If so how long? Thankfully my side effects are not nearly as severe as yours... but I do have extremely impaired vision. My vision is comparable to being so intoxicated you are running into the walls and can't drive. Horrible. I can't focus on anything. Good to read that benedryl helps. Maybe I will take that at night. Please update me on how everything turned out. How long it took before the symptoms disappeared, especially the vision. Hope the company reimbursed you for your time lost from work, etc!

  Hi Kerryb. How long did it take before your symptoms went away? Did anything help? I have the exact same symtoms. Very annoying. I reported it to the company and asked them if they would reimburse me for the cost of glasses, etc so that I can function in the meantime. lol! They didn't give me an answer.

  Hi Kimmy, wanted to know how long it took for your vision to improve and also how long it took before your vision cleared up. I am a type A personality and a perfectionist at work but the vision problems I have, and the foggy feeling I have is preventing me from performing at my best! Plus, I can't even go out and have a drink with my girlfriends bc it already feels like I am driving drunk so having a drink will most DEFINITELY make it impossible to drive. So annoying. Love the result but I can't even enjoy it! I received Dysport 3 weeks ago and although my vision has improved for things up close, my distance is still highly impaired. Any ideas on how long before this will go away? How long did it take for you?

  Wow, such a relief to read your posts! I am new to Botox & Dysport but decided to try it. Within 1 week my vision changed dramatically. It is EXTREMELY difficult to focus. The best comparison I have is when you get completely drunk- and I mean inebriated- and then try to focus on people's faces when you are talking to them or just trying to stay in the lines while driving. That is how I am, except I am sober! It is more difficult for me to focus on objects in the distance so driving is difficult, especially at night. I am wondering how long it takes for this to go away? It has been 3 weeks and I still have it. Sucks because I LOVE the result, but unfortunately I am unable to enjoy them because I can't even see what I am trying to look at!! I definitely feel as if I am in a fog and I feel bad because I am unable to perform my 'best' at work- and I just started a new job. Agh... anyone know how long this is going to last??? Anyone know of anything that can help with it?
