Hello, I would be happy to help you with your question.
It is a bit unusual to have right facial symptoms and left lower extremity symptoms. This might be a neurologic (brain) problem and should be brought to the attention of your doctor as soon as possible. The prior pregnancy complications seem unrelated to your current complaint.
