Title: What the flip is happening to me?
Post by nancyc on Jun 16^th, 2005, 4:12am

After chs one after another, Doc used botox in my scalp, forehead....all over......my forehead started lookin good but all of a sudden, my eyebrows started slanting funny...my eyelids are drooping so i look like a bassett hound....what the heck did he do to me? The ch pain is still there but i may have to join a nursing circus soon....any suggestions? smiles,nancyc ps i have decided botox only takes the pain from my hip joint and butt....not my face and head....that is the definetly the wrong end for botox. Damn, wish this pain would go away, sick of searching and finding no relief. ::) Bow Wow Nancyc....if you are search of a good Bassett Hound, I am for sale as long as I can lay around all day, eat and fart, opps, i meant poot. ;;D

Good morning nancy. Sorry you're hurting and the botox didn't help.

I think the doctors using Botox have a hammer and are looking for nails...
I don't think ANYBODY here has had success with it yet...

anyone?

sorry to hear you're being hit so bad.

(hey vig, or is it that they have nails and a hammer, and are looking for some boards to hit them into.)

not so promising... IMHO

and we don't want anybody hitting nails into our broads...

So sorry your experience has been so bad Nancy. It sounds like your doc hit a few facial nerves he had no business injecting Botox into.

I don't have a solution, except to say that it wears off eventually. And to say ... DON'T DO IT ANYMORE!

Not to make fun, but it's a shame it didn't cure your CH and make you look as smooth as Joan Rivers at the same time.

Hugs,

Kris

I never thought the side effects of botox could be this bad...i went to my doc and he admitted he gave me too much botox in my left side..the side of the chs...and it did nothing to stop the pain....i am getting hit about 4 to 5 times a day now....this is pure hell....the worse it has been in years.....thanks for your concern....love you all, nancyc
