Well thats an interesting(medical) development

Hmmmm. Seems I've lost feeling in the right side of me face, tongue and lips. So much so drinking is difficult, right eye is difficult to squeeze shut on its own. . Its not a stroke, i can lift both arms, hold them level, but this is new for sure. Might have a bit of a weaker feeling in the right arm, but thats maybe the way im sitting to type . Wondered if it might be caused by sleeping on my right side, but as this is now day 2, I dont think its that. Quick google (I know lol) does suggest something like Bell's Palsy, but it might be something else, though what I couldnt say. . Any medical aficionados in the house come across this before ?. I'm unlikely to rush out to the doctors, or hospital. I'll possibly try to make an appointment, though with my GP seems to be phone appointments only, so pretty much useless as that goes. Can only sit and see if i can develop a new way of drinking my coffee without it dribbling out the side :lol: Hey ho, isnt life interesting :)

So you are definitely not qualified to know what it is, but you seem happy to say it’s not a strike. .

interesting logic that. Get to hospital.

[i] Thankfully I can half them, but its still a problem as i cant fill my ample gob with liquid without losing some of it [/i]

I had some like that once. I found switching from pints of beer to shots of whisky helped
