Stress really is a trigger.

Left eyelids, left eyebrow muscles and left cheek muscles totally droopy today.

Looks like left side of my face is sloughing off.

Mouth is OK still. Don't know why? Thought it was all on the same nerve branch?

Any suggestions?

my opinion is that bells palsey is caused by a virus. CDS might get rid of it. I would try orally and topically.

I agree with razzle I'm so sick of doctors at the ER saying its a virusI know the combo of drugs that helped a friend get better but he did it within a few hours of waking up with it his other side of face had had bells for probably 10 years or so this time acting quickly he got rid of it it came on after some dental work I'll tell you in a PM if you want to know what he did stop it

Lyme? Its complicated. Educate yourself.

Greta,

Are you still on antiparasitics? Bells Palsy can also be part of a herx. My experience anyway.

Gael-maybe that is what is causing this.

Started new anti parasitic.

Went to half dose at dinner because of other symptoms...

The only plus side to Bell's is people will stop telling me I look good...ie I don't look sick.

Hi G,

Just saw your response on Parasite Thread. Sounds like you are getting quite a response from it, and yes I do believe that Bells Palsy can be part of a herx.

The bugs are in the nervous system, so it would make sense. I know what you mean about getting another kind of response when the Palsy shows up.

People tend to have that look of " gee, maybe something is really wrong!" Maybe back up a little on the new antiparasitic and ramp up a little slower.

Gael

I thought I remembered a post of yours awhile back listing a ton of supplements, not sure if it was you or not. Anyway brain pills, what are those? It's possible some of the stuff you are taking is not reacting well with others or you are reacting negatively to it.

When I am not feeling well my left eye droops. My husband can tell how I'm feeling by my "eye".

When I get a mold hit it will droop, it also will droop from Bart. I don't know how the other infections effect it...

It's been this way since I first started getting sick. I don't think it's supplements. I've had it on them and off them. I think it's toxins.

Yes, that was me the end of December with a gazillion pills. But I stopped in January and started from scratch.

The brain pain pills are ones I take when enceph gets bad.

RC1-yes, I was wondering toxins myself.

Haha! Maybe we have similar eyes! Like weather stations, but for our bodies.
