Mine spread through my nerves

Worst Decision of my Life

I was nervous to get Botox for the first time and asked tons of safety questions. Suzanne said it was very safe and only acts where injected. Mine spread through my nerves, causing twitching and dizziness that hasn’t stopped.

Thank you. I’m still twitching all over my body, which is very scary. I’m upset that when you ask injectors about Botox safety, they assure you that it has a very high safety profile and insist that it stays local. I’m frustrated that doctors blow you off when you say that Botox has spread and has affected your nerves — although it’s written all over the label that it can and does spread. Mostly, I’m very very sad to have done this to myself.

I am praying and hoping you get better. Please reach out to me if you need someone. I had the same effects from Botox, I thought I was the only one. Hang in there Warrior!!!!

Thank you. There are MANY people who have suffered these side effects from Botox — check out the Facebook group for Botox/Dysport support. It should be banned by the FDA. It’s absolutely poisonous to the body when it spreads and the injectors/Allergan pretend that they haven’t heard of these side effects when it’s well established in medical literature and peer-reviewed journals.
