Damnit

[mlerules]

Brushing my teeth this morning I dribbled/squirted water out of my mouth (right side) when trying to rinse my mouth out - not normal. Just couldn't keep a seal w/my lips. I looked at my face in the mirror, smiled, and began worrying, very mildly, 'bout Bell's Palsy, which I suffered a bout of in 1994 (or mebbe 1993). Driving home I noticed my right eye tearing. Constantly. It's still tearing. Vision's a bid odd, too. Have spent much of the day napping. As the day's progressed, it's gotten more noticeable. Smile's definitely a bit lopsided now (muscles on right side not fully/properly heeding my commands). Mouth (right side) and tongue feels like a couple of hours after visiting the dentist when the novacaine's not quite worn off all the way yet. Damnit. Now I'm nervous and concerned. Will call Kaiser at 7am o'morrow for a same-day. I remember from last time that some kinda steroid (Prednisone) helped somewhat (certainly made me happy & gleeful). Not happy now. Worried in fact. Scared. PO'd at my body.

My thoughts are with you, and I will be checking LJ regularly throughout the day for an update. Good luck.
