 | Ron Turner/Spamalot National Tour Hi trumpet cats, I am new here and signed up to check out this site and also post some info here which some of you might encounter someday. I have been playing professionally for 35 years. Most recently I am the touring lead trumpet with the Spamalot National tour. I came down with a mild case of Bells Palsy which only lasted about 4 weeks. I have heard from others that is has taken anywhere from 3 week to a couple of years to recover from. I am 100% and wanted to post my account of what happened. It is a MS word document. I hope this could help someone if it ever happens to them. Oh well I guess I cant do that because of the low 19kb allowed for attachments. My doc is 33kb. Thanks Ron Turner |

| Re: Ron Turner/Spamalot National Tour Hi Ron, Welcome to TM. Wow, bells palsy (facial paralysis) must be very scary for a trumpet player, or anyone for that fact. I am glad to hear you have recovered. My girlfirend is an acupuncturist in NYC, and had very much success treating this. Did you use acupuncture in your treatment? I will pm you my email address. Can you send your file as an attatchmant. I would love to read. I'm sure my girlfriend would too. js |

  | Re: Ron Turner/Spamalot National Tour If your file is a Word document or other, simply cut it in half and post as two halves! Wouldn't be the first time someone had to do that. Glad you got a recovery; as you say, it can take much, MUCH longer than that and even if there is recovery sometimes the steroids mess things up for years afterwards. |
