Hi,

Thanks for writing in.
There is a possibility of migraine since other possibilities like Bells palsy and peripheral neuropathy have been ruled out.
I would suggest you start treatment for migraine after referring to your PCP and then see of it helps you. Do you have any risk factor for stroke?
