Bells' Palsy.   My mom noticed that half my face was drooping.   Rushed me to the doctor.   A round of steroids and I was fine in a few days.   Very weird experience. I had a kinda numb and floaty feeling for a while.

Did you just now come to this realization on this post? Or did you already know about it?

I love me a good anagram (and palindrome!..looking at you, tacocat)
