I feel for each of you going through this,the agony of waiting it out till the stuff is out of your system has to be so hard, hopefully everyday brings you closer to the end of your nightmare-my story is not quite the same but want to ask if anyone has had the actual feeling of eye muscle weakness SEVERAL months after getting botox. It comes & goes around both eyes, worse when I am tired, I find myself at times using my forehead muscle to try to help compensate. My eyes do not totally clamp shut or even close involuntarily but it's just an overall feeling of weakness around them. My actual vision is not effected. I have been doing much reading and now wonder about the connection, read that there is human albumin in botox, which is from human blood, -- there is a very small chance of contracting certain disease from albumin that was not properly screened,the data sounds as if the risk is almost nonexistent but it is still there. Some of my symptoms seem to relate to symptoms of ocular myasthenia gravis, not all but some. I keep reading and keep trying to figure it out, the fact that I never experienced any of this before the last time I had botox injected which by the way was not my first time getting botox. In all I have had it done 4 times spread over quite a long time period but had never experienced this before. Can anyone else say that they are experiencing eye muscle weakness feelings almost a year after an injection or be able to shed any light on the connection this far out from having it done?? Any input would be appreciated...Thank you ladies.
