This has been happening off and on for over 25 years. It would be nice if it went away.

My left side's kinda droopy as well. SallyC's not too far off with her Bells Palsy assessment though... when I was super super duper affected at one time by twitching on the right (everything pulling 'up') and numb on the left, the left DID look like Bells Palsy.

I was looked at by a neurologist at the time (pre-MS diagnosis) who didn't believe anything was amiss (Bells Palsy that is... he was completely ignorant to the MS but that's a whole other chapter lol).

Wouldn't it be nice if it went away?! Sigh... I can't imagine 25 years!
