Fuad's pain in mostly in the jaw by his ear.  The first day he thought it
was over worked (eating a steak for the first time since stroke). He said it
was like his jaw locked at first.
 
Recently he has complained that his throat and tongue hurt when he does his
mouth exercises and reaches his tongue to the far right.  Left side hurts.
But that it is better since resuming the second dose of Eldepryl.
 
He yawns several times a day.  When he's relaxed but doesn't seem to be an
abnormal or unusual amount.
