re: Anyone had Bell's Palsy? (UPDATE--Pg. 5)

There is no link between Bell's palsy and a stroke

The onset of mine occurred during a hospital get together. I quickly realized that if I was cognitively able to run down a "checklist" I wasn't having a stroke. (Had a mild one of those a couple of years ago, as well, and recovered over a year) Fortunately, my then boss was the hospital medical director. He had security take me to his office where he examined me and told me what the real problem was. Had never heard of Bell's Palsy before that.
