Damn you Bell's Palsy

Bell's palsy is a disorder of the nerve that controls movement of the muscles in the face. Damage to this nerve causes weakness or paralysis of these muscles. Paralysis means that you cannot use the muscles at all. Bell's palsy involves damage to the seventh cranial (facial) nerve. This nerve controls the movement of the muscles of the face. Bell's palsy is thought to be due to swelling (inflammation) of this nerve in the area where it travels through the bones of the skull. Sometimes you may have a cold shortly before the symptoms of Bell's palsy begin.

Bell's palsy I HATE YOU!
It's the worst illness I ever got because it ROBS ME OF MY ABILITY TO SMILE! What could be meaner than robbing a girl of her smile right! TSK )<

Here's a list(for easy reference/complaning hahaa!) of what I've lost/ suffered in the past weeks.

• Temporary paralysis on the left of my face

Resulting in me having difficulty with daily activities like eating, drink, talking, and smiling.

• Lost 2/3 of my sense of taste

Fish sucks at this period of time. The texture makes it so it's like I'm eating... road and cement?

• Swelling of my left face.
• Pain under the cheekbone, jaw, skull on the half of my face.
• Before the paralysis sets in, I have to endure a sharp pain from my neck to shoulder & a cold.

 

Symptoms differs for everyone. Not everybody will experience the above symtoms.
I'm just one of the sibehh suay kind who got almost all symptoms one could get from Bell's Palsy fml )':

But at least mine is rather mild, according to the doc, some serious cases causes people's features like the eyes and lip to droop! So I should be thankful yeah? hehs. & nope. I didn't cope myself at home and wallow in self pity lolol. I even went to town for shopping and gave out an invitation to my cousin to view my annoyingly unbalanced face! :x
