Hello all

See my diagnosis below ...  I completed my chemo on 2/26/08 and radiation the middle of May 08.  I have lymphedema in my upper truncal area.  Since 1/09 I have had 4 infections .... my 4th one brought me Bell's Palsy.  It is caused by a virus.  The recovery is 3-6 months.  I still have no smile ....

Anyone else experience Bell's Palsy within a year after treatment?  Did you completely recover?

Blessings,

Kay

    No, not personally, but my step-father got Bell's after a case of Shingles.  It was gone in less than 3 months.  It is miserable, but should go away.

    Hugs, Shirlann
