Eyebrows feel heavy. I feel a light headache and fatigued. Is this normal?

jrokfitApr 12, 2019
I just had my first Dysport injection on my forehead and crows feet. I am a total hypochondriac lol so now I have this sensation of heavy eyebrows, doesn't really bother me but I just feel it and just want to know if that's normal. I had this done literally on Wednesday, today is Friday, So 2 days ago, also I noticed I am a little more fatigued. Is this normal?
