Hi Amy,
 I am sorry to hear that you have had this setback. My facial paralysis set in about 10 days out too. I was sitting talking with my mom who was here taking care of me and my kids, went to take a drink of water and my mouth wouldn't close around the galss rim, then I felt my cheek go numb and then the eye. I freaked out, looked at my mom and then look on her face told all. I called in and we went to the Doc's. They said it was delayed due to the swelling. My eye wouldn't shut. They gave me a moisture chamber to wear which was a major pain. The eye thing was the hardest for me at that time. It felt like there was sand and rocks in it, I was pouring natural tears in it every 3-4 minutes. Had to use the gel at night and I taped it shut at night for a while. I ened up at the Moran eye center, had damaged my cornea from the dryness and no blinking. it did get better and my vision was spared but definetly not what it was. My whole right side was limp and not functioning for 3 months. And then it started to come back. By 4 months out you could hardly notice, and now you can't tell at all. I was VERY fortunate most all my functions came back. All that are noticeable anyway.  I still have the dry eye, blurred vision. No sylivia in that side of the mouth, weird taste, very little moisture in that nostril. But all my expressions are there fine.  I'm sure yours is just swelling and will go away in time. I think the facial nerve gets traumatized just from them working around it. PLEASE be careful to take good care of your eye. Use the natural tears & gel with "no preservatives". And use it generously.  I still use them at least a couple times a day, and especially when I have been reading or out in the wind, my eye gets real dry.  ALso, I am SO ghappy you have been doing SO well, but I definetely think you have been WAY Overdoing it. REST GIRLFRIEND REST!  You just had brain surgery fior goodness sakes.
Hugs
