Ok, I had the nerve injection on 6/21, sadly enough my husbands birthday was spent taking care of me. Was very stiff for a couple of days, then AWESOME for about 4 days. Was surprised at how great and so quickly that it helped. Into day 5, 6 and 7 I could feel tightness in my head as headaches where trying to creep back in. Didn't think much because I figured that was about normal for things to get registered. All the while the face pains come and go, sometimes with just as much intensity as always. Now on about day 10, all the symptoms are now creeping back. Was told by the nurse that it would take about 6weeks for it to take full effect, that's not very comforting at this point.
Along with this I've been having more pain at the base of my cervical region then I did before the shots. My face has now gone numb to the point it feels like its drooping with a perpetual numb spot in my jaw. As well as pains in my arm and shoulder region. The vertigo and nausea are almost constant anymore.
My question is... Has anyone ever had this same reaction to having botox injections? Or should I "wait it out" to see how things go...
