Trouble swallowing three weeks after cosmetic botox of crows feet, frown line, forehead. Any suggestions?

Asked By:frostychick in Charlotte, NC

I saw my GP because of difficulty swallowing (it went away 2 wks after the apt). He didn't look in my throat or perform any exam. He saw I had used botox and sent me for a barium swallow (results normal) plastic surgeon told me to hold off from botox for 6 months. I just called to make an appointment since I'm at 6 months and they dropped me as a patient. Are my botox days over? what weight does a normal barium swallow hold in all this?
