Hello,
Does anyone else get a facial droop? I noticed 2 weeks ago that that my top lip had drooped lightly on the right side of my face. It has not quite gone back to normal yet, and every so often it feels like it is happening again.
This has frightened me as it is the first time I have experienced this since being diagnosed with MS in 2010.
hi anon
i had bell’s palsy when i was 17. i was off work with a heavy cold and woke up feeling that the cold was getting worse.
my mum freaked out because she thought i’d had a stroke. so off to the gp we went and he told me that i had bells palsy, i had it on the right side of my face. i got a sick note for 3 weeks and the cold cleared up pretty soon so i was having a free fortnight off.
i’d never heard so many quasimodo jokes because everybody kept trying to make me laugh (just so they could see my face going mental)
at age 50 i got diagnosed with ms and guess what? it mainly affects my right side!
