Where Has Buck Been?
There is some misinformation out there that I want to clear up. I have been out of work because of a case of Bell's Palsy. It is a nerve disorder that happens suddenly and without warning. The condition occurs when a nerve that controls facial movement is damaged. Probably caused by an upper respiratory I had prior to Christmas.
I've been unable to completely close my left eye. My left cheek has experienced some numbness. And the left side of my upper lip is droopy. I continue to talk with a little slurred speech. So, obviously doing a 4 hour talk radio show presents some problems right now. The specialist---Mark Harris--- tells me it will clean up---with the use of meds---in 2-3 weeks to several months. Just got back from the physical therapist---Julie Epstein at Emory Johns Creek Hospital---where I had some electronic stimulation and got some at-home facial exercises. And hoping for a quick recovery.
Thank you for your thoughts and prayers.
