My mother has alzheimer. My sister went to visit and my mother's mouth was droopy and speech slurred. She called the doctor and the doctor said it was probably part of her alzheimer and for my mother to take an aspirin and someone watch her for the next 24 hours. Are these symptoms of Alzheimer?

Yes, helen is right. But, they are also symptoms of a stroke or mini stroke. "TIA's"
But also yes, that is classic symtom of "Bell's Palsy. Did she ever get a true diagnosis on it? I would like to know also.

Thanks,
Carrie
