R-CPD/IBS/Emetophobia

Hello non burpers.

Trigger warning for my fellow Emetophobes

I’ve recently reached out to a ENT in my area that does the Botox treatment and I had a few questions for anyone that has had the procedure.

I have pretty significant GI issues/IBS due to chronic Lyme disease along with relentless Emetophobia to boot. I’ve always not been able to burp and in my last I just lived with it as it wasn’t to much of an issue in my life. 4 years ago I acquired Lyme disease and it kinda fucked my life up. Since then my GI issues have increased 10 fold. Mainly chronic nausea, severe bloating, cramps, diarrhea etc.

My main question here is, if I do get the procedure done; will I be opening up the flood gates to possibly vomiting every time I get nauseous? I feel like since I can’t burp it’s kinda been my “super power” that I’m physically unable to involuntarily vomit (only times I have; have been forced).

TL;DR Will the Botox open up the floodgates allowing me to involuntarily vomit after the procedure?
