Hi! I have a combo of AD and AB (mainly AD) and haven't had a Botox injection for almost seven years, mainly because I couldn't run after receiving an injection.
Anyone else out there with SD a runner? Not a jogger but a serious runner? I'd like to try Botox again but do not want to compromise my running/training (I run marathons). The Botox affected by breathing, though not in normal day-to-day activities. Has anyone else noticed this? I feel pulled between speaking clearly and being able to do something I love dearly and am fairly good at. Thanks! |

I've just had one BTX injection , but have noticed that I'm much more winded during , and especially exhausted afterwards. I was wondering if this was just coincidental, since I have not heard of any others. interesting |

I have AB and like to hike. When I first start walking, especially up hill, I find myself out of breath, but, as I continue, the breathing gets easier. It's as if I'm pulling more oxygen into my lungs. |

I try not to exercise really strenuously for about the first three weeks after the shot. I don't feel like I am getting my lungs really full of air for about the first month. Walking is fine, running not so fine. |

In answer to your question. Botox can and does affect breathing...In fact, most all Doctor now have a disclaimer they have to give patients, informing about the possible side effects of Botox...Breathing difficulty is the main side. I have been getting botox for SD since 1991, and noticed breathing problems about seven years ago. I am not a runner, but I do excercise and I have always been healthy...I was diagnosed with sleep apnea about five years ago...My breathing went into shallow breath almost to the point of stopping 27 times in one hour. I am normal weight for my height and stopped smoking in "93"...I did cut way back on the amount of Botox per injection. Now 1.5 per side. Hope this helps... |
