Curveball

I've been excitedly awaiting my gastric sleeve surgery and this weekend was a three day weekend. I was planning to get so much done. Boy was I wrong.

Saturday I noticed that my left eyebrow wasn't moving as much as it should be but I thought it was leftover from my ear surgery. I've had numbness in my tongue and some weird pains since the mastoidectomy. I wasn't too concerned about it, but then, at lunch on Sunday I noticed that my mouth was not working on the left side. I was trying to suck something off of my finger and the left side of my mouth wouldn't close all the way.

It was at this point that I became concerned. So, mom drive me to the ER and they concluded that I have Bell's Palsy. It should eventually go away, but at the moment it is difficult to eat and drink, and I look pretty funny when I try to smile. But, I don't mind as long as I don't have to delay surgery.
