  The bells palsey type of issues is not uncommon with chiari...I had it while at my NS, the nurse asked  if I ever had numbness and I said yes right now my left side of my face...she said I know I can see it....I was shocked!...It felt like it was hanging but I had no idea it was!!

I am so glad u went to a Dr and got some info as to what was going on... panicking is not good.

Sooooo glad u feel better : )
