Late July 2016 Had Left Sided Bells Palsy That Was

Late July 2016 had left sided bells palsy that was very mild. Had ct of brain without contrast (negative) and MRI with contrast (negative) with dx due to viral infection. About same time had right eye flashes. Been to several eye and retinal doctors. They attribute to ocular migraines.

Early September 2016 had right sided Bell's palsy. It appeared to have resulted and it too was very mild. No known cause. Did have strong right tmj pain. Still have uneven smile and droop in right corner of lips.

Mid October 2016 awoke to pulsating in ear and still have it. ENT said will order Mri if not resolved by mid December. No hearing loss per testing. 2 small left side posterior cervical nodes are palpable and me right side posterior cervical. ENT said nothing to worry about, so did PCP.

late November 2016 had CBC with 11,200 on abc count but all other items were in middle of ranges. No diff was ordered. PCP felt no issues.

no fevers or chills since mid July except one random couple hour one in mid September.

no weight loss

some headaches recently but attribute that to poor sleep from sick kids

blood pressure is around 125/75 with 90 for pulse throughout these months
a stiff neck at times. Chiropractor says muscles are tight.


should I be concerned about cancer, brain tumors, infection in brain blood tumors in brain or sarcadodis in brain ?
