Shouldn't be googling symptoms

Right? I'm just driving myself crazy.

Cannot wait to see an actual MD, but scared of what may be going on. Trigeminal nerve damage? The ENT said the facial nerves are pretty deep in the face. I'm such a nut, but I'm worried.

Hopefully soon. In my case it took months!

The less wait time, the less anxiety. Get it over with.

Good luck, I bet you'll do fine!

Just use it as a guide, a basis to ask intelligent questions of the doctor.

Good luck and happy holidays.
