Could I have gotten Botox poisoning?

Asked By:lisbeck in Milwaukee, WI

Two years ago I had botox in my forehead for probably about the 5th time in my life. About 2 weeks after I had breathing difficulties, weak neck muscles, heart palpitations, difficulty swallowing and muscle weakness all over. I read on the 'black box' warning these are all possible side effects. Could it have been the botox? Should I never get it again? I really want to get it again, but now I am scared.
