I believe that it is highly unlikely the symptoms you are experiencing are related to your Dysport injections.  I would recommend evaluation by your primary care physician.

I have done a lot of Dysport injections and have never had anyone complain of heart palpitations afterward. Dysport only lasts 3-4 months, so at 8 weeks out, I don't understand how things aren't improving if it is related to the Dysport. I would suggest you follow up with your injector, your regular physician and/or a cardiologist, and I would suggest you contact the manufacturer to report this if those doctors do think it has to do with Dysport.
