Ptosis getting worse 3 months after Botox?

NeverAgainBotox
Got Botox for the 1st time 3 months ago into forehead, glabella and crows feet. I noticed eyelid swelling/ptosis the next day. My eyes are sunken into my forehead and my eyelid skin has been drooping. Today I noticed that the eyelid skin over the outside corner of my right eye seems to be drooping more...is this even possible? Really scared...still can't move my glabella lines where most of the Botox was injected...will my eyes ever look the same and how much longer do I have to live like this?
