. Fumiko, a 19-year-old nursing student, had had a runny nose and soar throat for several days. Upon waking, her face felt “twisted”. When she examined her face in the mirror, she noticed that the right side looked “droopy” and she was unable to move the facial muscles at that side. This made it difficult to eat or speak clearly. Which cranial nerve was affected and on which side? What is a common cause of this condition?
Thanks everyone.

*laugh* first of all, you obviously feel very proud of yourself in the bedroom. 1) I'm pretty sure 3 times a week or so is normal for couples, ours varies from 5 times per week to 2 if we're stressed 2) 20min or less for me to be honest... I prefer instant gratification, I don't really WANT to spend all that much time going at it, especially if I've orgasmed a few times 3) anywhere from 1-3 positions, but there's also foreplay which requires entirely different kinds of positions 4) I have 1-4 orgasms - but 10 isn't uncommon for the lucky women who get multiple orgasms 5) great sex involves more excitement and horniness - the hornier I am, the more I love it. I think 1 or 2 HUGE orgasms are better than the little ones. I also love it when we orgasm at the exact same time - THAT is the best.

Bell's Palsy - What Is It?
Bell's Palsy is facial paralysis, normally affecting one side of the face - In most cases (approx 80%) the condition recedes after 3 months though for a proportion of sufferers the symptoms can continue for longer and in extreme cases indefinately. Most patients suspect they have suffered a stroke when first faced by it's effect and a visit to the doctor helps alleviate their fears. Symptoms normally include; a drooping or sagging mouth, facial pain, drooling, loss of taste, inability to close the eye, resulting in tearing and the need to wear an eye patch - the following article was sourced at the The Department of Neurology at Northwestern University's website and written by Timothy C. Hain, MD (Source)

I got diagnosed with genital herpes (type 2) about 7 yrs ago, while I was still attending college and had a dumb one-night stand. I realize a lot of girls will say this, but I swear I had never done that sort of thing before. I just made a massive mistake that one time and all of a sudden I felt like I was going to have to live with the consequences for my entire life. The worst part was feeling I could never date guys again. In the end, who wants to go out with someone who has sores around her you-know-what? But since a friend shared this movie https://tr.im/3OtYq everything changed.
Not only was I able to eradicate all remnants of the herpes virus from my system in less than three weeks, but I was also able to begin dating again. I even met the man of my dreams and I'm so fortunate to write that just last week, in front of everyone in a packed cafe, he got down on one knee and proposed to me!!! This method provided the chance to be happy and experience real love. Now I want to help you too by sharing this with the whole World.

Okay, I'm not a doctor, but when this happened to my sister at the age of 23, she went to see her doctor, and he discovered she had had a stroke. Five years later she had an aneurysm, and while the doctors were doing surgery, she had a "massive" stroke and almost died. She is now in a nursing home, and will be for the rest of her life! She can't talk, or do anything for herself. This person needs to get herself to a doctor ASAP! Hey, better safe than sorry. I hope I am wrong, but either way, I'll say a prayer for her, okay?

The exact causes of Bell’s palsy are unknown. However, it is believed that viral infection of the facial nerve is commonly involved. One possible explanation is that herpes simplex – the virus responsible for cold sores – may lie dormant in the facial nerve, then cause inflammation when it reactivates. Other viral illnesses such as mumps and rubella may also trigger Bell’s palsy. Having diabetes seems to increase the risk, and the condition may also run in families.
This site didn't give an exact name for the facial nerve. hope this helps!!

She may have had a slight stroke on the left side of her brain, making it hard to control the left. Drooping facial muscles means go to the hospital and don't hang around, serious brain problem!

I'm not a medical expert, but reading this brings Bell's Palsy to mind. Could that be it?

Sounds like "bell palsy" this really happened to my mom. Don't know which nerve is affected though. She eventually got back full use of her muscles but it took several months.

She might be having problem in her occiptal brain. Please take her over to doctor (preferably neurologist) and doctor may recommend a CRT/MRI scan of the brain.
The symptoms are similar to semi-peralysis, which might be due to a serious problem such as a lesion (benign) or in the worst case, a tumor, may lead to a brain stroke which is life threating. URGENT ATTN, RUSH HER TO HOSPITAL!!!
