I got botox injections about 6 months ago and it did not besides a very small part in my palm which is dry. However, after I got the injections my hands became extremely weak. My doctor warned me that my hands might get weak, but he made it seem like it was no big deal and said that it will not affect my daily life. My hands were so weak that I could not even grip a pencil (and I am in college so that made it a huge problem). Also, I could not do simple things like button pants or tie my shoes. The extreme weakness went away after about 2 weeks, but even now after it has been months I still feel like I have side effects. My handwriting has been extremely messy ever since I had the injections. Also, the botox did not work at all for my fingers or the sides of my hands.
Even though I had such a bad experience the first time, I am so desperate to stop my sweating that I might want to try it again. I have tried literally everything else (ionto, robinul, drysol, etc.). Is the reason that I had the weakness because my doctor injected it too deep? Also, has anyone tried myobloc? I heard that was much more effective than regular botox.
Thanks!
