What Causes Fainting And Weakness In The Left Arm?
Hey Doc, 2 nights ago my wife fell on the kitchen floor. She has passed out before so we didnt think much of it. This time she had weakness in her left arm and a droopy right eyelid. The whole episode only last 5 minutes or so and her weakness int eh arm went stayed for about 24 hours. Her droopy eye bounced back by the next morning. Ideas?

Hi,
Thanks for your query on HCM
I do understand your solicitousness
As per your clinical history is concerned admit her now at most proximate hospital where her CT scanning is required and an exigent physical examination by a neurologist is required .It looks akin to she has a stroke but what type of stroke it is it will be decided after brain imaging only.
Hope that helps
