Bell's Paulsy

[Anubis]

Small shock to the system yesterday. I spent most of last night and early hours in the A&E having woken up with no ability to move the right hand side of my face yesterday. Started on Friday night with my gum feeling numb but I put it down to particularly hot food I’d eaten.

 

Wemt to A&E as I thought I’d had a mini-stroke but was somewhat relieved to be diagnosed with Bell’s Palsy. After a battery of tests they also inadvertently found out my heart was racing and has an irregular beat (but not immediately dangerous) so had to stick around while they got my heart rate down via medication.

 

Anyway, now have a course of steroids and fingers crossed it’ll resolve itself. Bit of a wake-up health wise.

All the best. At least you have a diagnosis and the appropriate treatment.

In a weird biological quirk a male with a cold sore gene can cause Bells Paulsy in a female without said gene.

 

How do I know this, I gave a girl Bells Paulsy once, not many people can say that...

 

Good luck, A, I hope it clears up quickly.

Hope it’s all sorted mate. 
 

Let Bruce’s staff come round and look after you.

You'll be sound mate, you can start calling yourself 'Thor' or 'The Mountain' now after Haftor Bjornsson who has it himself.

Get well soon Anubis.

Glad you're okay mate. Yeah you'll be fine now you're on the meds, I know a few people who had it, of all ages, and they're all fine now.

Good to here you're on the mend. However, in true GF fashion, it is appropriate to take the piss a little. So, to that end:

 

You must have looked like Munch and Dali teamed up to share their art.

Sounds like you were impersonating an English sporting hero and the toast of last night's game. Bet you weren't dribbling as much though.

I hadn't seen this thread. I had this complaint when I was 16, missed my cousins wedding because of it. It heals itself and it should be nothing to worry about. Took me about a week I think with no time offf school if I remember correctly.(bollox)

 

No real problem other than feeling a bit of a twat for a few days.

[No2]

I think I had this for a couple of days after I had the Pfizer jab. One side of my face was like a balloon. Went away fairly sharpish.

Can we call you 'mong face' till you've recovered?

SKI's question still applies.

I’m the only mong face in this village.

Apologies, I should have responded to your post first, Anubis, rather than Angry, who should know better.

 

Hope it sorts itself quickly. I had it and it cleared up in a few days 

[Anubis]

Cheers for the best wishes. Even if it sticks it’s still probably a slight improvement on the original so it’s win/win.

BTW a mate of mine also got this recently and put it down to the Pfizer jab. He's literally the fittest guy I know and just turned 36.

Best wishes mate.  Sounds a real bummer.
