I believe Botox caused Peripheral Neuropathy in my fingers and toes. Would the same reaction happen again and would it be worse?

It is very unusual side effect of Botox that I am not aware of? The only way to see whether it is Botox related is to repeat the same procedure and follow closely on any signs of nephropathy. If so, physician who treated you should contact Allergan and report this as a side effect. Good luck.  

Thank you for your question.  I am unaware of any documentation showing peripheral neuropathy following a Botox cosmetic injection.  Since this is a concern following your last Botox injection, my advice is to consult with your primary care physician before considering further elective treatments.  Best of luck.

Dear Waterlilygirl,The timing of your symptoms and the fact that they resolved are suspicious, but peripheral neuropathy is not a normal complication of botox injected in the face. The effects of Botox are temporary and should not cause a recurrence of your symptoms, but the only way to know would be to try it again with close monitoring by your surgeon and neurologist. Good luck. 

The only way to check your very rare and unusual reaction to centrally sub dermal injected low dose Botox is try a test dose of freshly mixed Botox (Allergan USA only!). I would inject into hairline of forehead 10 units per side, only. Than be examined every 3 days for 2 weeks to see if there is a recurrence of this peripheral neuropathy. Also did the initial injecting MD notify Allergan and file an incident report?
