~Stroke Like Symptoms~

Last night was not a good evening. My husband was home for about an hour and suddenly his whole right side of his body was going numb and tingling. He had a headache and he was slurring his words.
He was thinking about going to the hospital but instead he went to bed. Depending on how he's feeling this morning when he gets up he might get checked out. It scared me a lot because he was so scared.
We prayed before bed and I am just hoping he's okay now.

Hope he's ok today and it was just something else and not a stroke

@Marilynda1225 Yeah I am thinking it was something else but it was definitely scary.

I have had stroke like symptoms with a migraine so that may be what it is, It is scary for sure but I have had it 3 separate times.

@BelleStarr I have had the same symptoms also with an aura migraine, I am praying that's all it was. He has also been working a lot in the heat lately so it could have been that too.

He should not take for granted he is now okay as he may well not be.

I hope your husband feels better! It's best to go to the doctors for a visit though.

I hope it wasn't a stroke. If it was you should go to the hospital immediately. If caught within three hours of the beginning of symptoms most of the damage can be avoided. It is possible that overwork can cause similar symptoms. It is better to be safe than sorry though.

@koopharper I hope not either. As you said overworking (which he has done a LOT lately) can cause the same symptoms and so can migraines. I am thinking it was one of those but it was scary seeing him like that.

@LovingMyBabies I'd tell that if it happens again you're taking him to the hospital whether he wants to go or not. I know easier said than done.

@Lolaze I told him those are the symptoms for that as well because I get those. He's never had one before.

@akalinus Thank you for the prayers. It was really scary, we were both in tears. I'm going to try to convince him to get checked.

That would be very worrying. Maybe he should get checked out anyway.
