Should you also get steroid injections along with Botox at the same time? Has anyone had experience with this before?

Botox should not be mixed with anything, including steroids. If you mean two separate injections, there could be a logic to that. Botox is to chemically relax muscles that are resistant to other measures. Steroid are targeted at nerves, as an "anti-inflammatory" usually intended to prolong the effects of local anesthetics.

Do you know which steroid should not be used that someone told me causes persistent genital arousal?

I know someone who got PGAD from nerve blocks containing the steroid depo-medrol.
