Bell’s Palsy

Hello my name is Paul and i am 28 years old and have just had a episode of Bell’s Palsy, i was quite worried at first thinking i had had a small Stroke as i suffer from High Blood Pressure Also my Gran died of a Stroke caused by High Pertension.

I had my episode of Bell’s Palsey the day after i came home from a Camping Weekend where i just so happen to catch a Cold-Sore (Herpies). i think this is the likely cause of it but can not be sure, so what i want to know is from the rest of the sufferers what they were doing or the state of there health, before the condition apperared, within a couple of day’s and how long was there recovery and was there any reacurances. Thanks for reading and i hope this will start the ball rolling with this subject being spoke about publically on the net. any info please post your story like i have done. good luck to all with the recovery process and wish you the best. thanks again, Paul.
