bells palsy twice with permanent damage

I am 36 years old and have had permenent or like the medical community like to call RESIDUAL damage from Bells Palsy I first got it in 1991. The second time I got it was in 2006. It has been two years and two months and my face is not completely back to normal. My mouth is slightly crooked, my skin on my eye sroops when I am tired, I cant drive at night with the rain because it is very blinding, my hearing is very odd. If there are more than two sounds going on at once I get really flusterd and cant concentrate. I also cant tell how loud I am being.If there is anyone else out there in my shoes feel free to contact me. It is really discouraging at times and especially when it is military connected. Otherwise, I got it both times when my husband went to Iraq. I dont handle stress well at all.
