Hi Shelley,
Oh boy. You have been through the ringer! I read on another post that you recently had eye surgery on both eyes (??) to relieve the pressure in the duct? What is the long term prognosis of that surgical intervention? Will the ducts be clear for good?
Ramsay Hunt syndrome is the result of an infected facial or cranial nerve. Where do they think the infection originally came from? Was all of the dental surgery done on the opposite side of the face?
Oh Shell...... this is the pits! How are you feeling now?

Well everything blew up even more in January with facial weakness and numbness around the left maxillary sinus.
Seems I have a zoster infection or also called Ramsay Hunt syndrome.
I am on an anti-viral and improcing the the implant dentist said he sometims sees this.
Leave it to me to be the exception to the rule.  |
