Is my mom a hypochondriac?

Bell Palsy
Miss-no-name

My whole life something has been wrong with my mother. And at first it was female problems like a hysterectomies etc etc. Which obviously she couldent help. But then whe I was about ten she took so many pain pills she got addicted and would pass out everywhere and stuff. Anyway after the stint of living in someones nasty basement with her drug habit I finally convinced her to move to Virginia where my aunt is. And for a few years everything was fine. But then it all changed again.. First her arm hurt, Then and I know this sounds completly out there I think she kinda faked bells palsy Iv seen pictures before and she dident look like that at all. She looked like she was doing it herself. But her doctors are to dumb to realize she knows how to play the game. And then after that its her foot it always something new wrong with her. I try to be supportive but on the inside I just want to push her down a flight of stairs lol Am I a bad person? could there really be something wrong? or does she just bug her doctors to the point where they just give her diagnosis she wants? I just dont know what to do for her anymore. And im being driven insane since for the past year she cant walk…apparently…please help!

Bell’s Palsy! What do you know?

The other morning I woke up with a strange feeling in my eye. Like I didn’t have control over the muscles around it. Over these past few days it got worse. Now it’s in my cheek and also my lip. But it’s only on the right side of my face. I set-up a doctors appt and did a little research online.

Has anyone experienced it before? If so, how long did it last.. ..how did you feel? .. I’m jusr REALLY curious.
I’m 5 months pregnant.

Long story but do I have a chance of filing a malpractice suit against my former doctor?

another question

I got bit by something, it turned out to be a tick bite. It gave me a swollen lymph node. She just ordered a regular CBC which came back normal but does NOT detect Lyme disease.

This was in THE FIRST OF JAN 08. Now it’s the middle of May and I finally switched docs and they tested me for Lyme Disease which came back positive. It’s been almost 6 months and I am have serious neurological problems. My former doc missed the boat. This whole thing could have been prevented in Feb. Now, I’m having SERIOUS complications from this except Bells Palsy (sp).

I have spent so much money on meds, doctors appts, blood tests, and surgery to get my lymph node removed. I want to be compensated. I have since had HORRIBLE panic attacks, lost weight from the stress, and have been through EXTREME EMOTIONAL DISRESS.

What would you do? Should I call her and ask her for compensation or sue her? She could have stopped this before I had neurological problems, and trust me it is painful and annoying. Help!

Can bells Palsy affect your limbs?

Okay, in April I had a case of Bells Palsy that only affected the right side of my face. Last week I had another case of Bells Palsy and this time it affected the entire right side of my body. I have very minimal function of my right arm and leg and I have excruciating pain in the right side some of the time.

Should this be something I need to be worried about or is it normal? The doctors I have been to don’t seem to be concerned about it, but from what I have read it should not affect my limbs. Is it supposed to hurt this badly?

Any information you can give me would be wonderful.
