I was diagnosed with Bells Palsy about 6 months ago and was prescribed a course of steroids which cured my problem without any long term damage.

My symptoms at the time included: Dull pains in back of the skull, right eye and right side of the mouth involuntary twitching and my right eye profusely watering.

Over the past three days I have been experiencing facial spams in my left eye and right side of my mouth. The spams don't feel the same as when I was diagnosed and are on opposite sides of the face but I am concerned it may be a reassurance.

I'm just wondering if anybody knows if I could be suffering from the initial diagnosis or could it be a reassurance?
