The doctor at the government run hospital in Maryland experimented on me for one year. I was given virtually no information on the side effects of the drug. There was no "standard of care,' no 'expectation setting,' no follow up, and no cared how i felt during the intervening periods. There was only a curt "hurry up i have other patients to see. Get a promise for a standard of care as describe in "The Dystonia Patient." I will avoid medical learning clinics and see real doctors.

I recieved botox treatments for about a year and have experienced respiratorial problems such as, can't run more than 150m without messing up my breath , feels like I have extra air in the lungs I can't get rid of :( .

The doctors just informed me of short term side effects , such as , heavy head , feeling dizzy, disorientation .

I stopped the treatments and just feel better knowing Im not poisening by body with a drug that provoces other difficulties , I think I have enough as is already is.

@kathrynkmarie Did your CD cause you headaches or muscle spasms in your head?.

@bsunshinez Botox can cause pnumonia, bronchitus, pulmonary infection etc. It is a poison and has many side effects like every medication. You must be careful and also outweigh risks vs benefits.

Botox helped my cervical dystonia but I am fearful that is caused respiratory/cough/cold symptoms the last two times I received the injections. Is there anyone else who has had that problem? I am due for my next injections at Mayo and wondering if I wil get sick again. Any information will be helpful!

Is there anyone out there who has had a serious respiratory infection/cough/cold develop after botox injections for cervical dystonia? I believe that the last two times I had the injections they produced these symptoms.  I am due to get the injections again and we will see if the adverse reactions are from the botox or not. Any help will be appreciated. Mayo Clinic neurologist are wonderful but have not seen these reactions.????
