Avatar m tn Hello, I'm wondering if my symptoms are indicative of a mild stroke. I've had this same thing happen a couple of times over the last decade, with varying severity, the most recent incident being two weeks ago. I went to sleep with a headache and woke up extremely dizzy, hoping a couple more hours of sleep would make it go away, which it did not. A headache persisted for the next two days and after it was finally gone the mild dizziness and general weakness has persisted ever since.
Avatar f tn But, even if you do have diagnosed migraine with stroke-like symptoms, if you ever show any NEW stroke symptoms then it is still important to seek immediate medical attention regardless of previous diagnosis, just like the last note on whisperwolf's list says.
Avatar f tn what happens with significant MVR some blood fails to pumped into circulation with each stroke. To maintain adequate blood flow with a decrease in stroke volume is to increase the heart rate. The math for cardiac output is stroke volume times heart rate for one minute. Frankly, I don't believe you have significant MVR because you should also have the symptoms of shortness of breath with exertion and muscle fatigue.

Avatar m tn I was diagnosed with Hemiplegic migraines after being admitted to the hospital with stroke like symptoms at the age of 26. My MRI shows a few white spots, but in the frontal lobes. I have not had a follow up MRI but I have been told that they do occur with migraines. I also was told that they are more common as you get older. I also worry about whether or not this is normal or if it's actual scarring that will affect me eventually.

795459 tn?1237239021 Temporary memory loss is possible after an accident with concussion or mild brain injury, mild traumatic brain injury (MTBI), mild head injury (MHI), and minor head trauma. Symptoms usually go away entirely within three weeks, though they may persist, or complications may occur. Is there a neurological deficit too? By now I am sure you would have more details. It is difficult to comment beyond this at this stage. Please let me know if there is any thing else and do keep me posted.

He repeated what he had been saying about how his "left lower lobe was now 1/2 dead - like a gun shot". How his "upper lobe and lemming over the spinal tract was also effected". He then told me that the symptoms of my loved applied to him and that he was completely paralyzed one the left side and that he was still unable to swallow or .
Avatar n tn ve had low B 12 in the past you meed to be extra vigilant about it in the present and future. The symptoms can be neurological and can be mild or very severe. It can be confused with Alzheimer's, MS, stroke and some other serous stuff. In a healthy normal person they get B12 from their diet and then this special area of your intestines make something called "intrinsic factor" that makes the B12 work.
510226 tn?1210984961 He was in ICU last month with a hypertensive crisis when they say he had a mild stroke. He tested clean for drug abuse. The only thing they changed since he has been home was they put him on Diovan HTCZ to help lower is blood pressure. I had him stop taking the medication and he seems to be doing better now. I set him up a doctors appointment for Thursday. I don't know if it was the medication but he seems like he has improved. Thank you for answering my question.
Avatar n tn I believe that what you experienced was related to the panic attack, rather than stroke. Panic awakens your most intense sense of fear, which can lead to many unusual symptoms for those going through them. Your fear that you could have had a stroke goes right along with that thinking, as it would be "the worst thing that could happen" in that time.
Avatar n tn I am a 52 yr. old female and have CM's and have had a mild stroke from a CM. It's good that you went to the ER and they treated you like a stroke victim, I believe they did the right thing at the hospital in treating you. It's hard to tell the difference between a CM and stroke. They can have the same symptoms. I do not smoke, have never been on Valtrex and have had a tubal. Don't know how shingles would come into play, that would be for a dr. to say.
744637 tn?1250803022 Hi, It is difficult to differentiate complicated migraine from stroke. The symptoms of stroke develop very rapidly while the symptoms of complicated migraine develop insidiously. MRI and CT scan in patients of stroke shows the characteristic small vessel ischemic changes. The best treatment for migraine is recognition and avoidance of trigger. Medications like NSAIDS are used to abort acute attacks of migraine. Other medications include butalbital, isometheptene and botox.
