Alice, both my family doc and onc say it is not Bell's palsy. The MRI has shown nerve damage to the 9th cranial nerve. Family doc says it could be TIA's. Just have to wait until I have the repeat MRI in Oct. Thank you all for your input. I don't think this is realated to the Cancer. Just wondered if anyone else was having this problem and how it was resolved. Very frustrating when I am talking with my patients and my words come out wrong. They look at me like I am crazy. Very frustrating.
