By 1PM same day as injection, I experienced muscle twitching of my right lower facial muscles (around mouth). This continued intermittently for the rest of the afternoon. By 6pm I experienced paralysis of the lower right side of my face; the left moved as normal. Over the next 3-6 months, I gradually lost the ability to move the left side also. I now have very little movement of my lower face, which causes difficulties with eating and occasionally talking. As a result of this facial paralysis and after multiple medical tests, I learned that I have a genetic disorder that includes a predisposition to lower motor neuron disorders, which I did not realized that I had. I already has some forehead paralysis, but until this event, no MD could tell me why.
