Yesterday I bent over while dancing and dabbed forehead, did I mess up my Botox? (photo)

Yesterday I got 22 units of Botox in my glabella. I was told the only restriction was to avoid laying down for 4 hours. About 6 hours after my procedure I went dancing with friends and got pretty sweaty. Had a couple of drinks. I probably dabbed my sweat away from my forehead a few times. I also bent over with my head lower than my heart a few times. After reading about Botox aftercare instructions today I'm in a panic. Could I have risked migrating the Botox? Am I going to end up with a droopy eyelid?
