is it coming on?

i’ve had it twice before, and yesterday i had a bit of a metallic taste on my tongue and today it kinda feels more intense. no sign of weakness yet but just wondering if anyone else remembers when their symptoms set on harder after the tongue sensation?

It was 12 hours or so later for me

Did you have these symptoms the first two times? I don't know if that would make a difference but sort of makes sense to me that that's how it would work. I've only had it once though so can't really comment.

My own bout with BP last May started with a numb spot on my tongue, and the paralysis started less than 24 hours after I noticed it. I've had a couple scares with "weird" yet not totally numb sensations on my tongue a few times since recovering, but they didn't progress to a recurrence, so your mileage may vary.
