Wondering if anyone knows how effective Accupuncture would be this far removed from initial occurance? as far as gaining full range of motion back in the right side of my face.

As I wrote in an above post - I has BP2005 and did use accu . Over the years I would go back to my accu (Karen Borlan - KwanQinHealing - WestHartford) for a quick lift, whenever I felt like the muscles were drooping - this always worked for me. I don't know if you live in CT, at the time I lived up by the Mass border and it was a haul to WestHart, but Karen was very good and worth the trip. When I got BP it was a Dr that suggested Karen to me.

Good luck with successfully eliminating the cancer.....keep up the good work.

My 18 year old daughter has type 1 diabetes and every so often will have a seizure in the middle of the night. One morning I walked into her room to a horrible sight - the entire left side of her face looked as though it had melted and she had difficulty speaking because of it. Her doctor confirmed that she had suffered a Bell's Palsy reaction brought on by a diabetic seizure - I was terrified! Odd thing was, we never had to start medication because within 2 hours it completely cleared away on its own with no lingering side effects...thank God! But most bizarre just the same. I did some research and found out that every case of Bell's Palsy is slightly different and some can last forever or can also be brief just as my daughter's was. If I know KM, this is going to be a temporary set back as she is just to feisty to let something like this take over long-term!

Yukon, I had never heard of that. My brother passed from Type I diabetes and I also battle this horrific disease. I contracted a staph infection in my right leg last year that nearly resulted in amputation. I will have to ask my endocrinologist about the link between diabetes and BP. Thanks for the heads-up.

How could people who call themselves WCBB fans, and are old enough to remember that skinny kid with the racing around the floor with that big braid flopping around, ever demean Kim? She was the one who got me interested in WCBB. I believe it was the first nationally televised NCAA women's championship game and she was the star. We do, however, like to rag on her a bit about her wardrobe selection. What the hell, we're not perfect.

Leave her wardrobe alone. She shops at the finest Las Vegas shops.

Like Dolly Parton said "it takes a lot of money to look this cheap."

My step-son had a BP episode about a year ago. They put him on steroids and it cleared up in a 2-3 weeks. He had to wear an eye-patch for a bit because his one eye wouldn't close. We teased him, but we're that way.
