• Posted to Dysport and Botox Together - Tight Head on 8 Nov 2009

  I had injections of Dysport about three weeks ago. I ended up in the ER twice. Here is my story: I had about 6 injections in my forehead and temples about an hour to two after this I experienced a numbing in the back of my throat along with my heart racing and a feeling like I was going to faint and couldn't catch my breath. I went to the ER and they couldn’t find anything “wrong” with me. I felt "OK" for about a week and a half after that but then experienced a pain in my right ear and throat. I thought it might have to do with my teeth so I went to the dentist - he found nothing. That same day I was sitting getting my hair done when all of a sudden my heart was racing out of my chest and I felt like I was going to pass out and die, honestly. An ambulance was called and I was rushed to the hospital. My heart rate was doubled and I needed to take some volume to come me down. I was released from the ER and told it was possibly and anxiety attack. I then went to my doctor a few days later. She explained to me that there was a chance I suffered from side effects from Dysport however she was not 100% sure. I can tell you I have NEVER felt this way in my whole life and it seemed right after I received my Dysport injections I felt this way. I am never going to Dysport again which is unfortunate because the results were great however it is not worth risking my health over a few lines in my forehead. Honestly it scared me to death I’m interested if anyone else has felt this way as well. Again, I am not 100% sure how I felt was from Dysport however I can tell you I was fine before and never experienced anything like I have been over the last few weeks since my injections. I’d be interested in knowing if anyone else has experienced similar results as I have.
