What Causes High Blood Pressure With Numbness?
I am 28 years old i am 5'5 and wiegh 363 pounds, I recently have been going to the dr and the past couple of times I have had high blood pressure, Well yesterday when I Started to eat dinner my jaw locked on me and I had this intense pain that went all the way to the back of my head my left arm and left leg were numb completely ive had a headache most of today and just have been feeling week,I'm wondering if I possibly could've had a mini stroke?

as your numbness was unilateral one suded and both arm and leg was involved it can be a possible reversible stroke termed as RIND
history of headaches are also suggestive of a reversible stroke
this should be taken seriously
a mri of brain should be done to rule out if its ischemic or haemorragic stroke
complete lipid profile
fasting n pp blood sugar
and an ecg(to rule out heart attack) should be done at the earliest
thank you!!!
