Just found out I have BP

About a week ago I noticed little things about my face. my mouth felt as if I just left the dentist and I was numb then I woke up one day and thought I was having a stroke When I went to to the hospital they said I have BP still not as bad as as a stroke but still being a person who likes to smile alot it is really hard to do so out of one side of your face. They told me that it would not last for long but other stories I have read the recovery rate keeps changing. I am on steriods and antivirial but what else can I do?
