Bob Fink- Thanks for your reply. Do you think I may have just imagined a faster recovery? And of course you are right about an incomplete recovery. Mine occurred in 1992, and I still have some residual. My left eye is slightly drooped and the left side of my mouth also. I've practiced smiling so it's hardly noticable, but when I'm tired, it's more obvious. I still can't drink soda out of a can, I have to have a glass or cup. However, I'm much older than most patients who get it. I went to a cosmetic surgeon , who said he wouldn't touch a patient who had Bell's Palsy. Strange, huh? I've been told Bell's Palsy occurs when one has been emotionally traumatized. Is this true? Acupuncture did help me with one particular illness as long as I took the treatments, but shortly after I stopped, my illness recurred. Best wishes, Jo Ann from Houston
