Asked By:foryourcloset in Calabasas, CA

I got Juvederm in my lips last week.My lips do feel weird like there is something foreign in them...is that normal? fA few hours after the lip injections I started to feel stomach pain/nausea & felt as though I had mild food poisoning which lasted a day. Now I feel like I have the flu.but it comes & goes.My arms feel weak and my upper back hurts and I sometimes feel weak/feverish and last night I had terrible night sweats where I woke up completely drenched in sweat. I just don't feel good.
