Hi Amylynn,                                                                                                         
                                                                                                        Like all the others I had delayed facial paralysis too. It started just before I flew home. The doctors put me on more steriods. It did help but not totally. It took about 8 weeks to heal and go back to almost normal but everyone is different. You know your body better than anyone else. Take care of yourself and don't get discouraged. Take one day at a time. I will be praying for you.  Ann

I just got a note from our friend Amylynn.  She is just fine.  The normal eye thing makes it hard to be on the PC. 

She said she will be back on the forum soon!!

Same thing happened to me, 10 days post op, new facial paralysis. They think it is from reactivation of a latent herpesvirus, that's why they use anti-viral meds  pre-op to try and prevent it. They're still doing research on this.  If it occurs late, like yours, it always clears up, as mine did in 3 weks.  good luck
