Botox Causing Stomach Pains?

lisa from Turkey
My wife has had botox to the face, but shortly after ( two days ) started having stomach issues, to which she is constantly on the toilet and unable to eat. My wife has explained the stomach pains as muscle spasms and heavy rumblings of gasses to which give cutting pain. I understand that Botox can't be removed or flushed out, i lead to believe, but is there anything that can be done to ease the pain. She has been to three doctors to which have given her pain killers, but nothing that has helped.
