Hi I Went To ER 2 Weeks Ago And They

Hi
I went to ER 2 weeks ago and they said I was having a stroke. I was at ER within 30-45 minutes of first signs of stroke. They sent in a Stroke team by helicopter and I was at major hospital in 25 min. While in flight they gave me the medicine to break up the clots. I been having stroke symptoms for about 2 hours when they gave me the clot busting meds. When I had CT Scan with contrast and also Later the next day a MRI with Contrast, They told me I had no brain damage or signs of stroke on the brain. But I was weak on left side, and still had numbness/tingling on face, left arm and leg.
