This is old Hawk again. First, I want to thank
all of you who responded to my last post.
My new question is this, and any thoughts or ideas or opinions are appreciated. I had CT
Surgery on my dominant hand in March 03.
I have just been diagnosed with Bells Palsy
this week. It is a disease that attacks the
facial nerves. This also on my dominant side
as my surgery was. Could it be possible that
the two could be related somehow since they
both have to deal with nerve damage? And that
they are both on the same side of my body?
I have partial paralasis of one side of my face.
I am being treated with meds and told it should
clear up in a couple weeks. Talk about a crooked
smile (LOL) I see the neurologist again in a
week. Anyway, the medical experts stated that
they didn't know for sure so they couldn't say one way or the other. I'll check back in next
week and let you know if I'm smiling straighter! P.S. Copdaddy, if you read this, yes, Hawkeye
is in honor of my beloved Iowa Hawkeyes.
(I guess they don't call you Copdaddy for
nothing, now do they!!! LOL)
