pt states that she was extremely tired after getting the vaccine. The next day she began running a fever, developed fever blisters on her lips and she slept the entire day. After about 24 hours, the right side of her face became swollen and had fallen. She tried to drink water but it came out of mouth because the entire right side of face was drooping. She went back to bed and slept. The next morning, the right side of her face was still swollen but not as swollen as the day before. A couple of days later, she noticed the right side of her face on her cheeks, she was developing a rash and/or hives. Her chin had dimples in it and her neck looked like chicken skin as her skin was just hanging. She contacted her PCP and was seen right away. She was prescribed Valtrex for the fever blisters. The next morning, her right cheek was still red with rash and was worse. She went back to her PCP. She was prescribed more Valtrex and steroids. She was told if gets any worse to go to the ER. By Feb 3rd she went to ER. They did CT scan. She was diagnosed with Bells Palsy associated with the vaccine. She was told keep using the meds prescribed by PCP and to follow up with PCP next day.
