Has anyone had/have Bell's Palsy?

This past Labor Day was my four-year anniversary of waking up with Bell's.  I had surgery two weeks previously and they figured it was the "shock" to my body that triggered the herpes virus which caused shingles in my ear (yes very ouchy!) which then triggered the Bell's.  After four years, I have the use of my left eye and I am able to hear out of my left ear.  However, I still do not have use of the left side of my face (no smile). 


The last few weeks I have been having tingling and twitching in my nose, cheeks and eye on the left side.  Do you think this could be the Bell's still healing?  If there was a surgery to repair my smile, I'd be the first one to sign up!  They mentioned surgery when I first came down with it and I said absolutely not - I was only two weeks postop and wasn't going to go through another surgery.  I'm regretting that decision now.


If you know of any information regarding surgery, healing - anything!, please let me know!

Bell's palsy
I've had it twice. The first time was probably 30 years ago or so when I was in high school, and then I got it again about 5 years ago or so. I believe I received steroid shots to clear it up. I would have hated to let it run its natural course. I honestly can't recall much about mine, but I hated it. I could not imagine having it for 4 years!

How about at Christmas with the bell ringers?
You know what else gets under my skin? During the holidays when EVERY store you go to has someone outside ringing a bell. I know, I know it is for a good cause. But if you go to a ton of different stores in one day it can get to be old to bypass that each time. You don't want to explain that you gave at the last 5. Most of the time even though I know it is the season for that, I forget until I've walked almost to the store and then I'm scrambling to find some money in my purse and freezing my tail off. Yes, I know the bell ringer is cold too. A lot of times I don't have any money on me either. Before anyone tries to make me feel bad that this is a pet peeve of mine, I feel guilty enough myself and if possible put some in the pot. Grates on my nerves though. Go ahead, call me Scrooge.
True Bell's does not last that long...sm
it sounds to me like perhaps the surgery itself caused some nerve damage and the docs just don't want to admit fault. have you seen a neurologist? I would suggest that as a start. good luck to you.
does eminent domain ring a bell......to start..sm

By the way, you'd be correct on the media - I'm not into American Medial...I get my news from Europe, other foreign places, MY VENEZUELAN FAMILY (in laws)...BBC is a good one (love Christiana Amanpour).  But Chavez is a Castro Mini-Me in my thinking...and I'm being *kind* due to being on a public board....

That is a long time for Bell's to linger. Usually, at least in my case, 6 months max.
I took antibiotics and it cleared up in about 6 months. You have some type of nerve irritation and probably the herpes triggered it. Are you taking anything?
I was addicted to Chapstik/Bonne Bell lip stuff--began "using" went I was 10 -sm
Pretty funny thing to get addicted to right? I used BB or Chapstik or Blistex until I was 27.....so 17 years of it getting progressively worse, not kidding I would lube up every 5-10 minutes...at least it was a cheap addiction (don't smoke, etc). Went cold turkey when I was 27....I had 3 months of hell, my lips peeled and generally felt and looked horrible for 3 months until my lips regained their natural ability to take care of themselves. Even now I have to be very careful not to get "readdicted" as it would be very easy to do and have "slipped" now and then by using my Chapstik a bit too much. Now if your lips are doing this for no particular reason, yes, I'd get it checked out, can't hurt....
