What Causes Sudden Rolling Back Of Eyes Followed By Body Imbalance And Slurred Speech?
My 81 year old mother today apparently had an episode that sounds bothersome to me. My father said she sat down for lunch and then her eyes rolled back, her tongue rolled and she lost her balance on her chair. He caught her before she fell off the chair. She also spoke jibberish and was extremely sweating. What could have happened?
