Has anyone had Bells Palsy...if so..how long til first noticed any recovery/improvement. Thanks S?

It took my girlfriend about 3 to 4 months before she began to see any movement again on the left side of her face. It is a year later now and she has a lot more movement. Most of her problem now is from muscle mass loss due to lack of use. If your doctor offers you any kind of speech therapy you should do it.
Best of luck to you and I hope you get better soon.

My uncle had it, and it cleared up much more quickly -- totally gone within a month, I believe. He had a lopside smile and had been drooling, I think. Was told it was due to an inflamed or compressed nerve, I think?
