Stroke survivors

[lola_ann]

Hi I have an 11 yr. old son who had a stroke when he was 8 yr. old. He's recovered physically however, he's struggling in school. But that is not my main concern at this moment. About two months ago he was playing video games and had a seizure and was rushed to the hospital. The doctors told me the video game could have contributed the seizure which I am very aware of now. Prior to his seizure he had been having some similar stroke symptoms for a couple of weeks--pressure, numbness, shortness of breath & some pain mainly on his left arm, but entire left side of body. He only complains about the symptoms when he is at rest or laying down at night. An EEG was done & results were negative. Now last night we were having dinner and he started having chest pains, so I made him stop eating cause I don't know if it could have been the food. Then tonight again he was eating and started to have chest pains. If anyone can shine some light I would be greatly appreciated.
