Blepharospasms 10 Months After Surgery

I am 43 and had surgery 10 months ago.  I still have mild lid numbness, but in the past month have developed blepharospasms.  They occur all day long.  I feel one lid get very heavy then it will begin to spasm.  Then the other lid starts right after.  I started taking extra vitamins thinking I was deficient.  I use lubricating drops regularly without relief.  My doctor is telling me I need Botox shots to stop the twitching.  It is interfering with my work.  My swelling status post surgery took about 5 months.  I feel that I did not heal well either and I always thought I healed well from surgery in the past.  Anyone have any other suggestions?  I am very worried about having these shots in my eyelids!  This has been my worst surgical recovery ever.
