Posted under Botox q&a

I have been experiencing horrible anxiety and panic attacks since I was injected 4 weeks ago, read online this is very common.

How are you doctors saying you have never heard of this problem/side effect. I have read a ton of comments from patients having this problem. It’s awful I feel hopeless and feel like there’s no way out, my chest is going to just explode. I don’t know what else to do. My doctor prescribed me buspar for anxiety, it made me much worse I had to stop. Please someone help is there a better way, anything I can do to speed up getting Botox out of my system. It is affecting my life in a horrible way.
