Default I'm Really Bummed
I was supposed to have my MRI today but the doctor didn't send the orders over until yesterday. I saw him on Friday. My insurance won't approve the test until tomorrow so we are trying to find another time.

I know some of you will think this is stupid but I'm having a "tightening" over the entire right side of my face. I'm not beautiful but I always get compliments on my smile. I can't smile. It makes me so sad.....sorry....just had to vent.

Im with you! I want the folks who are supposed to be setting this stuff up, to do it in a timely fashion, and not keep me waiting, and worried.

I hope you get your answers quick and your smile returns.

Hmmmm, is bells palsy a possibility? I had that once and your face looks and feels like you're having a stroke.

Good luck with the MRI, whenever they decide you may have it..

That sounds uncomfortable and scary. Hope it resolves ZAP! all on its own very quickly.

Yes, it does sound like Bells Palsy. I had that once and it was no fun.

yes, that's crappy office mgmt.
if you get any other sx's consider the ER.

i hope this comes thru for you soon. keep checking about the approval daily.

I hear ya GiGi. I've been getting single muscle strand spasms in my shoulder, forearm, bicep, tricep, chest, neck, had a few in my eyebrow but stopped.
Advice? though it's not helping me much, use the [smile] muscle all you can. Then smack whoever makes fun & smile harder
