I was so ill right after my botox injection. And all doctors said it was not from botox. Until I went to my eye doctor who could see my eye muscles were frozen, paralyzed. Using my vision made me ill and caused great pain. I went to a neurologist who tested me after I told her what happened and found out I had botulinium toxin type A spread to different parts of my body. How can I help my muscles start working again? And how long will the toxin stay in my body? My doctors are unsure.
