Hello. I just read your comment on bells palsy and I want to say how sorry I am for your discomfort and aggravation. I know exactly how you feel because that happened to me many years ago. I hated how I looked andI hated the whole situation, I tried to find any answers I could. I found out that plastic surgery doesn't even help. My heart goes out to you. I finally decided that I got b.p. because my higher power wanted to show me that we are so beautiful inside and our outside body is only a temporary place. There is more to life than how we look. It's not easy to accept I know. But this makes you even more special and a beautiful being. Hugs and love to you, precious person.

I just got diagnosed a few days ago after dealing with it for just over 2 months. It started with pain in or behind my left eye, then went into my jaw. I had 3 teeth pulled at the dentist, then I noticed the numbness in my face and it started spreading to the rest of the left side of my head and face. I work in the industrial field so I have to wear a hard hat and safety glasses. It hurts bad. My scalp is sensitive as well as the left side of my nose. This sucks
