Quoted from Irishbastard:My buddy has had it for ten months now, caused by undiagnosed Lyme disease. His eye and lower jaw are still screwed up, can't eat right or drink well from a glass. His taste returned, but still has bad tinnitus, and "voice to text" doesn't bode well for him. It's no joke for sure.
I had a coworker get hit with it about 9 months ago. It was a tick/Lyme disease that caused it as well. The testing often comes back negative for Lyme's because the bacteria in your blood often doesn't show up until later.
