Hello,
I understand your concern and would recommend going to the ER for a physical exam and some tests:
- A resting ECG
- Blood electrolytes
- Complete blood electrolytes
- Thyroid hormone levels
A brain CT scan may be needed if the left arm weakness persists.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Dr. Aida Quka
