My cheek suddenly went numb 3 days ago and has not been back to normal since. I did not experience any light headedness or anythin else at the time. I was just talking to a friend and it got almost completly numb over a period of about 10 seconds. It's freaking me out. Someone please help. I'm affraid I have MS or something. But i've alway been a hypochondriac. What could it be?

Get thee to a doctor. Don't make yourself sick worrying about MS or anything else like that. Just make the appointment and get checked out. It's the only way you will have peace of mind.

It could be MS, my first exacerbation was facial numbness, but it could also be a host of other things: a pinched nerve, an infection of your facial nerve, lyme disease etc. Some diseases heal faster and better if they're treated with antibiotics as soon as possible, so it's a good idea to see a doctor about the numbness.

Go to a doctor and get diagnosed properly. Nobody in here can give you a legal diagnosis, nor can you get any remedies to the situation from an online source w/o a proper medical diagnosis.

MS??, how about Guilliam Barre, you can die from that ;)
Seriously, no one can diagnose you over the net, things like that can happen from simple panic attacks too. If your that worried, go see a doctor

stand up, wiggle your legs back and forth for a while, that should do it, oh, and don't sit back down for a few hours.
