and it don't stop...

So, the ringing in my left ear is lowering and I'm able to sleep with that side of my face on the pillow, I can breathe fully through my nose and am no longer walking around with my mouth hanging open for air.
BUT
now the left side of my face isn't working. I can only raise one eyebrow and wrinkle one side of my nose, and my smile is a little lopsided, to say the least.
Mama's got Bell's Palsy.
Which has to be the lamest condition ever. Just a temporary paralysis of one side of the face, you know, so you look stupid for a little while.
So if you see me, please don't say anything to funny, because laughing is the most embarassing thing I try to do. Oh, and if you come into my house in the middle of the night and see me with my eye taped shut, that was the doctor's recommendation.
Come on! Apparently my karma isn't as good as I thought.
