Can Botox cause diarrhea and anxiety or am I just sick and neurotic?

December 24, 2014
Asked By:Katie7 in Columbus, OH

I got 48 units (total) of Botox from my dermatologist for the first time 5 days ago in forehead and crows feet. I had pretty bad anxiety the day after and though I have suffered anxiety in the past, this felt unprovoked. Anxiety mostly gone (except when I google side effects online) but now I have diarrhea and a headache. I had to stop taking a zpack last week for a sinus infection after the first day because of diarrhea. i just want to make sure I didn't poison myself for the sake of vanity!!
