Suggest Signs Of A Stroke
Hello Dr Keerthi. Just felt like I had a mini stroke. My right chest right up to my jaw bone went numb fo abt 10 secs. I have chronic high blood pressure and a bimbo of 50. What are some of the signs of a stroke? What could have happens to me? I still feel my right chest quite heavy. Many thanks

HI
Well come to HCM
This is may not be the stroke (What the symptoms being given here) if you do have a history of hypertension and it is well under control then stroke is very unlikely, then main symptoms of stroke would be sudden onset of syncope with the severe headache just before the syncope, or some time TIA (Transient ischemic attack) you can clear the doubt and for this the best option would be CT brain, hope this information helps, take care.
