I can't speak to DBS. However, I do have abdominal dystonia vs camptocormia. I got my first Botox treatment 2 days ago. I have had no side effects from the Botox but my muscles were very sore the day after treatment. I felt like I had done 100 sit-ups. The doctor told me it takes 3 weeks for the Botox to kick in but I might feel some benefit is 3 or 4 days.

Hello @sadnancy,

As it has been over 10 days since your Botox treatment I was wondering if you have noticed any changes yet? I'm assuming that the Botox injection was in the abdomen wall?
