Have you been diagnosed with this syndrome? We are trying to find the best care and better prognosis for my daughter.

Hello @mattey741 and welcome to Mayo Clinic Connect. You will notice I have moved your post into an existing discussion on this same condition, which you can find here:

What, may I ask, are you most hoping to hear from other members regarding RHS?

Hi @coni, I moved your thread to this discussion as I think it may help better connect you with some great people to talk to who have gone through similar situations. I'm also tagging @lorimar89 and @annieg in the hopes that they may share some of their experiences with you.

I also wanted to welcome you to Connect, @mdmendel81! Have you also experienced facial paralysis?

Slight swelling. I do facial exercises and suck on a spoon to reduce the swelling.
