Had Botox 3 weeks before surgery with general anesthesia. Possible to have had a reaction with neuromuscular relaxant?

Zuzana7714May 24, 2018
I had botox injection three weeks before surgery in general anesthesia. After surgery I got pain and pressure in location with botox. Now it is two months and I still have this pain. I want to ask, if it is possible that botox had an interaction with neuromuscular relaxants used during surgery. If yes, what can I do with this? Thank you.
