I have had Botox multiple times for crows feet, and between the brows. This last time, I noticed mild side effects within 10 minutes such as: dry mouth, flushing/warm skin, and tiredness. I had an overall uneasy feeling which led to a panic attack. I only had 15 units for crow's feet. I did not experience hives. I did not end up in the hospital for any other complication. My question is - could this be the start of an allergy? Is there danger of these effects worsening each time I have Botox?
Botox and juvederm years ago with no problem. 2 weeks ago, I started using Zo MEDICALs skin lightening system, the mildest products. Wednesday used the exfoliate and my face turned bright red. then had 35 units Botox injected into my forehead area by a certified plastic surgeon. cheeks are red, Face burns, itchy eyes/face , heart palpitations (I get anyway due to anxiety) lips feel tingly, dry mouth, feel like I have flu Im just scared Im having a weird reaction to the Botox.
I have Sjgrens Syndrome - an AI disease that primarily attacks the moisture producing glands. My major symptom has been enlarged & painful salivary glands despite having minor dry mouth & never suffering from salivary stones or infections. No treatments by my ENT & Rheumy have been able to shrink the enlarged glands. I've read that Botox can help reduce the size but neither my ENT or Rheumy are aware of this treatment. Would I be causing more problems if I were to try Botox for this issue?
Hi, I received Botox for TMJ and furrow line between the brows. I had 20 units plus about 1 week ago. Immediately after I felt fatigued that attributed to something new being introduced into my body and to rest up. For the next few days I had numbness at the injection site (brows only) and even falling asleep between clients. Slowly it has now progressed to stomach aches, dry mouth, diarrhea, occasional shakes and now anxiety. What is the course of action for this? Could this be systemic?
I had dry mouth few days after injections and two weeks after injections, I noticed there was no salvia from both sides and bottom of my mouth. My throat is so dry and I have swallowing problem. I suspect Botox was injected into my parotid glands and submandibular glands which suppress the saliva. Did Botox damage my glands permanently? Botox wears off in 3-4 months, what about Botox injected into glands, will it wear off? Anything can be done to have my saliva back?
I've had a very small dose of botox done 5 days ago and about 7hrs later had a servere pressure feeling in my head and it hasn't gone. I'm having headaches, eye pain, leg weakness, dry mouth, light-headedness, swollen eyelids and puffy under the eyes.I feel spaced out. Is this normal? I went back to the Doctor who injected me and he said it wasn't normal to have headaches for so long and I probably have a tension headache caused my the injection but not the botox itself. He denied it being anything to do with Botox and said the symptoms I am having is unusual and maybe there's an underlining cause. Surely he's heard of these symptoms relating to botox before? I've heard so many stories of people experiencing unwanted side effects from botox. I would say my side affects are moderate. Will these get better?
I know have difficulty sollowing and have extremley dry mouth. Im tierd all the time. Could have it effected my thyroid gland? I havent felt the same since. When will this go away?
