Passing out after Botox normal? Numbness in hands?

June 15, 2017
Asked By:enchantmestupid in Brooklyn, NY

I went in 2 days ago for Botox. The injections were fine but when I went into the lobby I felt nauseous then got a blacked out tunnel vision.They had to drag me into a room. I couldn't see and couldn't move my hands. After about 2-3 minutes I stared getting feeling and motor skills back. I felt fine yesterday but I'm starting to feel fatigued today. I called the office, they said I could be dehydrated. I have had a bit of water. So not sure if any of this is cause for concern. Thanks!
