Hi, I am 22 year old female, and after my grandmother’s funeral I got panic attack. I had strange feeling of weakness in my left body side for a couple of minutes. Was it a sign of stroke or indicating predisposition for a stroke?
Hi, when I had a stroke it was with more sudden onset, and there is no going back to earlier state, so I suppose it wasn’t a stroke. But, if these signs repeat there is certainly some cause beneath it.
You need to have it checked by an MRI scan. Maybe there is no disorder and it was completely provoked by panic attack, but this would mean that you need to learn calming and relaxing techniques. You can not allow that these difficult moments take control over your health, and bad things happen from time to time, no matter how hard we try to avoid them.
