I've recently been suffering from a few odd symptoms.
I feel almost as if I'm drunk sometimes and I'm going to pass out. I have had some severe headaches that start behind my eye and go down into my neck. I've also noticed that when I "tell" my arm to do something it won't follow instructions. My legs feel weak and sometimes as if they aren't my own and when I try and explain myself my brain finds it difficult to almost put a sentence together. It makes me feel stupid but I'm worried about what this is and if it could be serious.
I'm 19 from the UK normally fit and well. I suspected a mini stroke but I wondered if I was too young for this and could it happen without me realising at the time?
Thank you in advance.

Hi Sha,
You are not too young to have a stroke, they can happen at any age. Your symptoms do indicate a possible neurological problem. It could range from an infection or a tumor. It may also be cardiac related, lack of blood flow can cause neurological problems.
Without a complete exam we are only speculating. See your doctor.
If problems become more severe, seek emergency medical help. Never delay treatment if you suspect a stroke. Early treatment greatly improves your chances of recovery.
Good luck.
