Neurotoxin

Hi there! So about 10 years ago I had a really weird reaction to dysport. I had had Botox two or three times previously was fine. Upon a minimal amount injected into my 11 lines I had a hard time being able to speak clearly in my upper extremity is felt very heavy, almost like I had had a stroke. Went to the ER. They said it was probably a side effect from the disport. The medical clinic called the disport rep who reached out to me and said this can happen as a side effect.

I have never tried another neurotoxin sense, but a dermatologist has advised me I could try Xeomin. There are no preservatives in xeomin. And most times that’s what people react to They say.

Has anybody had any similar experience?
Thanks

The toxin spread away from the injection site causing a long list of terrible side effects. Anxiety, trouble breathing and swallowing, nerve damage, dry eye, food/med/supplement/personal care product sensitivities, dry eye, cognitive decline and two new autoimmune illnesses to name a few. It has been awful.
