I was diagnosed with Bells Palsy Sept. 15, 2008, the left side of my face, thank god it was a mild case, it went pretty much away with the medication within two weeks, here it is Oct. 9, 2008 and the right side of my face is numb. went to the doctor today and she put me back on the stroids and veletrax. she also said I was the first patient she had seen that this happen too back to back. Has this happen to anyone else out there?
