A life of having A Bell's Palsy

Tweet

It's year 2012, about 8:00 in the evening while cleaning my room, I felt strange pain at the back of my ear. it continued until morning. I just took it for granted, just like an ordinary day, I went out of the office for official business. While I was in the office of our accredited law firm, I felt heaviness of my right portion of my head, I eventually noticed that something is happening in my face, I requested my closest staff there to lend me a mirror, and there, I noticed the mild deformation of my face. I rushed myself to the doctor, I was diagnosed with a bell's palsy, my right face was paralyzed, the doctor explained to me everything, the causes, the healing, the whole process. It's quite depressing to live a life when half of your face is not functioning, it weakens my confidence. The cause: Weak Immune system caused by stress , because I was working from 8am to 5pm, schooling at 5:30 to 9pm, and reviewing for LET board exams during weekends. The healing: I took rest in a month, and during that period, I took a leave from work, I undergone 3x a week of therapy, did my daily face exercise ,at the beach during weekends, took medecines and lot of vitamin B. The expenses: WOW ( never mind ) Full recovery took 2 months. Recovery is a long , hard and expensive process, so you guys take care always, take time to rest from time to time, stress will really put you down. Good morning!
