In the recent tradition of contracting odd and rarely heard of conditions for no apparent
reason (see Thipe re. bacterial arthritis), it appear I (or rather my body, I was not consulted) have followed suit. Well, I never was one to miss a trend!

Obviously something painful and/or debilitating would be a bit extreme so I have instead gone for a mild dose of... Bell's Palsy! Which i thought was a disease from the Olden Days! but, apparently not. Or , not anymore! The Dr was quite surprised tho, I am his first case of it in a couple of years! Yay me!

As long as I remember to keep blinking, so far it's not too bad. Til I try to talk, laugh, eat or drink - it pretty much looks (and feels!) like I've been to the dentist and the numbness hasn't quite worn off. ALL THE TIME. It should get better in 10 days or so. Have lots of steroids to be going on with, and have to get an EYE PATCH. AAARRRRR!

I feel cider may help. Possibly drunk through a straw.

So, go me? How are you all doing?

oooooooh. i did actually think of bell's palsy the other night but didn't want to fret you. (though i would have mentioned that it wears off, honest!)

i think you must DEMAND a black eyepatch, none of this "dirty beige that claims to be (white) skin colour. and possibly a parrot.

i think cider is probably required at this point. hope it buggers off sooner rather than later!

tbh it was one of the first things i thought of as well, but i thought i was being melodramatic!!

and it does wear off, hopefully sooner rather than later tho...

When I read your last post I thought 'that sounds like Bell's Palsy' but didn't want to alarm you. One of my friends got it a couple of years ago. It was a nasty dose but his face is fine now.

George Clooney had it before he was famous!

Bloody hell!

Straws sound like absolutely the way forward! The cider will help relax you and ease pain, so MEDICINAL! Demand it on prescription!

*apparently* you're not really supposed to mix the steroird and alcohol. Tho, didn't seem to do any damage last night! but then fizzy wine isn't *really* alcohol, it's mostly bubbles...

hope you're doing ok m'dear, I have been a bit of out touch lately, with everyone. Must try harder *sends voles*
