Day 11 - Call the Doctor!

When I woke up this morning my eye was totally bloodshot and ticked off, so I took off the patch, gave it some drops, and proceeded to go back to sleep with just my hand holding the eye shut. When I woke up 3 hours later, it showed significant improvement. (Even though it is still really bugging me.) I am still having pain behind my ear and radiating down my neck.

So I called the neurologist's nurse. And now I'm a little freaked out. She asked me if there was a knot behind my right ear. Yes, there is. She said maybe it was my lymph node bothering me and that that is typical of infections which cause BP. Yes, but I've finished my anti-virals and am no longer supposed to *be* infected!!! I told her that the pain was running down my neck. She asked about my meds. I am still taking prenozone (which I'm going to re-name pred-no-doze, sheesh!), but finished my anti-virals on Tuesday. She's going to go talk to the doctor and call me back (it's been 2 hours and I'm still waiting, but whatever).

But this whole conversation kind of freaked me out. After I got off the phone I felt the lymph nodes on my neck and they are still enlarged on the right side... could there be something else wrong with me??

I need to go run errands today, but I'm so freaked out I feel paralyzed in this house.

Castor oil is extremely helpful in the Bell’s Palsy Natural Treatment. It lessens swelling and recuperates the harmed nerve. It fortifies the facial muscles and builds their flexibility. Warm some castor oil in a skillet. Drench a meager cotton fabric into the oil and apply it to the face. Spread the pack with wool to trap the warmth.

I recently have some difficult conversations and I did what a lot of people do when they want to know how to do something. I googled it. I came across Dr Williams herbal medicine on blog-site so many people with Bell palsy and dystonia thanking him about his good work. I also have dystonia. I wasn’t running all over God’s creation with every man I could find but here I am. I have felt bad about myself for so many years now because of my dystonia status. I obviously still have some self-accepting to do but I want to thank Dr Williams for everything he have done for me,after taking Dr Williams medicine i was completely free from cervical dystonia within one month of usage, I think what you are doing is so admirable. you have helped me a lot! I want to definitely reach out to you and thank you for your amazing work. You are a good person, and an extremely talented man.
