Wow; great job on this video. I am in my 6th week of Ramsay Hunt Syndrome and I have been researching a lot but I must say this video is the best and most thorough explanation of RHS. There is not a lot out there. I just turned 70 and have not seen a lot of improvement worth celebrating and I have been searching for ways that I can improve my odds for a complete recovery.

[@arymhansie]

The best video I have watched so far regarding this condition, I hope and pray that Justin recovers quickly and is back to doing what he loves best. Must be so frightening and overwhelming for him.

I had Ramsay-Hunt 2 years ago, with a different progression of symptoms. It started with vertigo that got steadily worse. Doctors thought ear infection and prescribed 2 runs of antibiotics, no help. Projectile vomiting, staggering, throat/neck pain came at week 2 and I entered hospital. Facial paralysis happened suddenly in ER, ear blisters and throat blister led to diagnosis by ENT. Powerful anti-virals and steroids given in hospital. Facial paralysis resolved completely during 2 weeks in hospital, but severe equilibrium dysfunction persisted. I had 4 weeks inpatient PT to retrain ambulation to a walker. Home PT for weeks. It's been 2 years, and I still have balance problems. Hearing loss in that ear. Peripheral vision was swirly for 6 weeks, but resolved. Neurologists told me it hit Cranial Nerves 7&8. The steroids as part of the treatment cocktail sent my BP and blood sugar sky high. The delay in diagnosing due to the facial paralysis not showing first...put treatment outside the 72 hour optimum window. It's been so hard. I pray for Justin's healing.

[@eyechannelbyeyesurgeon]

Thank you for sharing. I wish you a complete recovery as well.

[@pokerdealer2003]

Same for me but I never got movement back its been almost 2 years now, I had ringing in my ears for almost 3 months and the pain was about the worst Iv ever dealt with, I felt for Justin when this all came out, I wouldn't want RHS for anybody its horrible.

In October 2021, I had Ramsay Hunt Syndrome and shingles. It started when I developed a severe headache on the left side of my forehead - like a crushing sensation in my skull and an ice pick stabbing pain behind my left ear. This was accompanied by flu-like symptoms and a burning sensation on the skin of my face on the left side. I was unaware that I had shingles (Herpes Zoster) because the initial lesions were hidden by my hair and I assumed I had gotten sunburned and a migraine while on a walking tour of Richmond, Virginia. However, in a few days the blisters ran down to my face and onto my throat. Some tracked down my neck and onto my left shoulder. By the time the lesions reached my face, (4 days) and I knew for certain that I had shingles, I knew it was already too late for the basic treatment to be effective. These blisters appeared suddenly. I literally watched in the mirror, in real time, as these pink patches formed a map-like demarcation on my face. neck and shoulder from which bubbles that looked like white caviar erupted. Again, I must have already had these in my hair, but the hair masked them from being seen. The pain was beyond comprehension. Imagine someone pulling out your hair with a red hot tweezer and then pouring boiling oil onto your skin. That is the only way I can describe the pain. It was constant and not helped by Advil or Aleve. Walking in circles in my home, holding my head in horror, I put 89,000 steps on my pedometer in one day. Three sleepless days later, my ear starting hurting even worse and my only relief was to sit in the shower with warm water running over my head and face. I had popping in my ear, but no hearing loss. The following morning, Day 6, I fell asleep for a few moments and when I got up to take a drink of water, my left eye felt dry and when I drank from a water bottle, it spilled all over me. I could not form my mouth to drink from the bottle. I could not blink or close my left eye. I could only move the right side of my mouth. I could not flare my left nostril or move any part of the left side of my face. My forehead was frozen. This happened suddenly. I didn't gradually get paralysis, I got it in an instant as though someone flipped a switch. I should have gone to the doctor but I didn't. I don't know why but now, in hindsight, I realize that my brain went into another gear. I started to disassociate from myself. My mind dealt with the horror by making me think that I was just a guy who was watching another guy (me) going through a horrible experience and that I was trying to help him. I have a medically adjacent education, and I knew what was happening. In my library I found a medical book from 1910 wherein I found a few paragraphs describing Ramsay Hunt, and the only treatment they had at the time was, "aspirin as much as the patient will tolerate." I know it was stupid, but I did it. I must have burned a hole in my stomach but, like I said, it was like an out-of-body experience. I was acting like another person who was helping me. I wonder if this out-of-body experience was partially caused by the virus affecting my brain (encephalitis). I dealt with this for two weeks, but as the shingles themselves started to resolve (chunks of my hair fell out) the paralysis persisted. I could only speak coherently if I put a spoon in my mouth and pushed the inside wall of my left cheek outward. I strapped and ice bandage on my eye to keep it closed and wet - especially at night. I took at least 10 aspirin per day. Then, after 21 days, I could move my upper lip to the left. In a few hours my eye was opening and closing almost normally. Over the course of another week, everything seemed to return to normal although now ( July 2022) I am left with some after effects. My left eyebrow twitches once when I close it, and when I laugh, the muscle under my chin where I had blisters, cramps up tight and hurts like a Charlie horse, then in a few seconds the cramp subsides. The scars on my face are nearly gone but the burning sensation from the shingles rash and pain remains wherever I had the shingles. It's called Post-herpetic neuralgia. The pain is 90% less than it was at the onset of the illness, but it's still there. It gets a little bit better each month and I figure that it all will subside in October which will mark one year since it all started. When I finally saw a doctor, she said that I still had really bad shingles scars on the left side of my scalp and neck and throat and that it was nothing short of miraculous that I made, what she considers to be, a full recovery. I do not recommend that anyone treat themselves the way that I did. My best guess is that I got lucky. Please get your shingles vaccine. I don't like to talk about the pain, but I cannot express how horrific it was - luckily my mind spared me from some of it with that dissociative thing.

I was diagnosed with RHS 6 days ago and my left face is paralysed. I have been having antivirus and steroid pills from day 1 and I hope I can recover soon.

[@designa11y]

I’m 2.5 years into my Ramsay Hunt journey. I documented most of my experience on instagram. I was hoping that Justin’s diagnosis would spread more awareness of the condition and it’s long term debilitating factors. Beyond facial paralysis the other symptoms can persist and do in the majority of people with the condition. I am of the lucky bunch the have had about 80% recovery to facial mobility, but I will permanently live with 89% vestibular dysfunction on the effected side, chronic neuropathy, hearing impairment etc

[@mignaromero9848]

Hi Im a 56 yr old that was first diagnosed on September 13th with Perichondritis then when my face became partially paralyzed on the 14th, They said it was Bells Palsy, I went to the ER on the 15th and they gave me Prednisone and they by the 18 went to my doctor and they diagnosed me with Ramsey . She prescribed Valacyclovir. Im currently in physical therapy and acupuncture. Im a little better. My paralysis is a little better but not much. I wanted to know if you think I received the right medication on time and will I recover or fully recover? It 's a slow process and I'm feeling a little discouraged. My speech is a little better but when you I look at my side where it's paralyzed, my skin is droopy. What can I do about that? Thanks

[@sannyjohnson6423]

I was just recently diagnosed with H.D and they prescribed me Prednisone and Acryoclovir.. starting therapy in a few days

Can the covid vaccines be the cause of Ramsey hunt syndrome ?

crickets? i guess your on your own to figure that one out.

No

@Thomas Mathew harris you are absolutely incorrect. many people got it the day after.

Ramsay Hunt or Anthony Faucci ?

Just go away. Your ignorance is astounding.

[@patgoshko1765]

I have Bell's Palsy and I was wondering what you recommend.

[@eyechannelbyeyesurgeon]

Dry eye disease is one of the most common eye symptoms from Bell's palsy, and it is very important to keep the eye lubricated. You can watch this video kzbin.info/www/bejne/roGQlJp9jLSkb9U to learn more about lubricating eye drops for dry eyes.

Clarification. Justin went on vacation quickly after this diagnosis. He wasnt that sick at all. Not like all of the comments of what these people went through. He never said he had shingles...seems a little peculiar to me...

[@travisglenn7003]

well, when ones immune system is purposely compromised by some nefarious concoction it would, my guess, affect different people in different ways. not everybody reacts the same way. also, there was a japanese study that noticed the variations in the vials made by the same company. all kinds of diseases or ailments will manifest due to the mass immunity system hijacking.

[@amymybelieber]

Hailey probably gave him a love spell mix with drugs to drink that's why he's so messed up rn poor miserablestin pray for him 🙏

Call me jaded but I bet he just had a stroke from doing the wrong drugs. He's talked before about having a substance abuse problem.

[@R1GAMBLER]

experimental drug. Pfizer.

[@reggieshmeggie4219]

Might be due to vaccines, revaccination reduces immune system, shingles usually appear when immune system is messed up
