Left side face & arm numbness

[Ms_Fancy]

I have been experiencing mild to moderate pain and numbness in my left arm and the left side of my face.  December 2007 I had a craniotomy performed and suffered a minor stroke afterwards.  Should I be concerned?

I agree with Sandee1818.  You don't want to fool around with that especially since have had a minor stroke.  It always better to be safe then sorry. Go to the ER it sure won't hurt to get checked out even if it isn't anything.

I would definitely call your doctor and let him know what is going on. He will be able to tell you if you need to come in or possible even go to the ER.. Please do not wait on this. If you can't get your doctor during the weekend call the ER and talk to the nurse there and she will be able to contact your doctor and see what he wants done.
