Bell's palsy was something that came up fairly early with the vaccines. The rate wasn't that much higher than what normally occurs. Often some type of immune system trigger does seem involved in it's cases, so it's possible the vaccine was that trigger.
Getting a 2nd opinion isn't easy to do when it comes to seeing a specialist.
I see....of course we also have to bare in mind that studies were rushed with minimal participants....so the effects if any, may show up with a larger population now involved. We are now all the case study in a way.
Yeah, seriously, it might clear up by the time you get to the specialist. I've had that happen before (not Bell's Palsy, but the condition clearing up before I saw the specialist).
In general I find the 2nd opinion advice odd. Are people really getting 2nd opinions from 2 specialists? If so how? The system rejected a request for a specialist for me because I already have one and that was supposed to be for separate things.
Sadly, that's how our system works. Our healthcare system is fundamentally based on scarcity, leading to things like no second opinions, waiting lists, people with no primary care, and so on. In the US, where money is more the basis, your insurance might not pay for a second opinion (but might also insist on it from what I've heard) but if you've got the money, you can still get one. Their problem is that people without money or good insurance get developing world levels of care while those with money or a good insurance plan actually get much better service than most Canadians do.
*sigh* Some type of mistake with the data. Both of those were changed. Not a new peak or anything, but refreshing removed the sudden drop off that was there.
I was at the local mall to see my optometrist. The optometry practice still requires masks, but out in the mall it was a real mixed bag. Maybe 50-60%?
