Hail to the Redskins!
Does she have braces? I had something similar happen when I was younger and had braces. At first they couldnt figure out why the side of my face was numb and swollen, but they eventually figured out that it was like an infected duct in my cheek or something from the braces. Antibiotics fixed it.

:bs: When I broke my nose, busted up my face and needed all those stitches, was throwing up blood because I so much of it was running down my throat,nose into my stomach, and there was nobody in the waiting room, and I had great health insurance - those asses made me wait 5 hours. St. Mary's hospital is incompetent. After that experience there, I have sworn if anything ever happened again, I'd rather go across the county line.

Interesting. Also, I have a friend who was on the pill for years. her husband just has a vasectomy so she is no longer on the pill. She was experiencing the same type of symptoms includingthe facial numbness. Turns out it is/was her body reacting to the sudden loss of hormone from the pill after so many years.

She has a MRI/MRA scheduled for Monday. She is feeling better though.

The Doctors are waiting until all the tests are completed until they tell her anything.
