Hello,

The loss of sensation in arms and legs with speech impairment indicates possible issue with cerebral circulation or neurochemical mediators level disturbances which may or may not end up in seizures. After thorough neurologic examination, I do recommend a CT scan or MRI brain for further detailed analysis and frame out management protocols based on that only.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
