possible stroke?

[marina100]

Hello,

A couple of years ago I woke up in the morning  and walked over to the bathroom but once I reached the door I realised I was dragging my left leg and fell. I stood back up and my left arm also was numb and I had to hold it up with my right arm. This lasted for a very short time then I went back to bed for a short while. Afterwards I was fine with no symptoms or problems.
Let me know if you have any information on this type of experience.

Thank you very much.

Hi,

You have to get your blood pressure checked for a few times to see if it is in the normal range.

The symptoms you had could be due to various reasons and stroke as a definite cause cannot be said because of the prompt recovery you mention.

Have you had the symptoms again? Have you consulted your doctor about this?

Were any investigations done? Are you eating well?

Let us know about how you are doing now and if you have any other doubts.

Regards.

I had a the same experience. Although it lasted for an hour, I was rushed to the emergency room and was told I had a TIA (Transient Ischemic Attack).
I hope you've seen a doctor, as your risk for a more major stroke is much higher.
