What Causes Throat Discomfort While Suffering From Facial Paralysis?

my 92 year old mother who has had Ramsy Hunt Syndrome a year ago resulting in some facial paralysis and this year loosing her eyesight in one eye due to a blood clot is now having an unusual sensation that is happening about 20 times per day. It begins with a feeling something like a pill is stuck in her throat, followed by a head issue on the top of her head that is hard to describe. Not really dizziness, but like particles swirling around in the top of her head.
