9 days after botox and miserable

Im outside right now and i’m really not okay. if i’m not laying down then im nauseous CONSTANTLY. in the span of a minute i’ll have 3 waves of severe nausea. i want to cry, im a student and i have exams. but cuz i’m constantly fighting waves of nausea i fumbled my exams. i try to avoid going out but sometimes i have no choice, like my exams for example. this is my second try and even tho the first one didn’t really work and i got more bloating it wasn’t like this.

ive been so desperate that i even tried air vomiting even tho it terrifies me, i managed to air vomit but as soon as i was done i genuinely felt my stomach cramp and puked out straight up thick mucus(that i think had been building up in my stomach from all the nausea). i have no clue what to do, i have a call with my doctor but that’s weeks from now., im miserable, genuinely so miserable. i can’t do ANYTHING that isn’t laying in bed without feeling like im seconds from puking. im currently outside and trying to not puke so dont mind wny mistakes

one week after botox. sick and tired

It’s been exactly 8 days since i got my second round of botox(100 units, all on one spot. first try was 70 units on multiple spots). definitely not struggling with slow swallow as much as most people seem to do, just a tiny bit the first 2 days but nothing major enough for me to really think about it. got micro burps on day 3(got micro burps after a week and a half on my first round so big difference). they’d come out pretty easily if i was yawning. but they’ve been slowly dwindling these past few days.

one thing i’ve noticed is that i CAN burp but only in a very specific position, and i only really randomly stumbled upon this fact today. most people seem to have to move their head to the side, relax their throat etc to burp. none of that works for me. i literally have to make my chin touch my chest/sternum area and keep it tucked like that for the burps to slip out and they’re very small burps too.

any other position is useless, i have really bad gurgles and nausea, it’s like the air is trying to come and so bad that it’ll even take my stomach contents with it. i’ve been trying to burp in other positions aside from the ridiculous chin tuck but i just get gurgles and painful hiccups like usual but they’re even worse and im genuinely suffering so much. it was so bad today that i tried to air vomit for the first day, god it felt nice but i ended up actually feeling nauseous and puking at the end which wasn’t nice

im only seeing tips for people who can only burp when turning to the right or left but what the hell do you do when you can only burp with your chin pressed against your upper chest like a crazy person? i feel like my body isn’t reacting like anyone else is. here’s a drawing of how i look trying to burp.
