    Ugh I am so sorry! At least Botox is somewhat temporary. Hopefully you will get to be like your friends and not see it all the time.

    I have a movement disorder and Botox is one of the therapies. I asked my neurologist about doing that in the future when I decide to get pregnant to control my tremors. He said "Well my only concern is if they don't know which nerve and treat the wrong one you could end up temporarily unable to use your right hand." I guess Botox is great, but there are still risks.

    I'm sorry to hear you had a bad experience with the botox. I am glad you shared this with us. We always hear the positive from the media about cosmetic procedures but rarely the negative. I've not considered botox but I'm just turning 40, I may have in the future. I have deep set eyes as well so I would have had the same issues as you. Thanks for sharing, I do hope the botox wears off quickly. I wonder if there is anything that you could do to help speed it along? I wonder if detoxify would help? Maybe your doctor would have suggestions.
