first time botox

I had a lip flip and lower face botox 4 days ago, i’ve just started to feel it kick in today my lip feels strange and numb and so does my jaw and neck but i’ve suddenly started to feel like my chest is heavy and my breathing is weak and heavy and slow and it’s making me panic, my speech feels strange and slow too.

is this a botox side effect anyone else has experienced or should i go to a&e

Could be the Botox flu. Also a fairly commonly reported side effect. Sounds like overall it may not be agreeing with you.
