Hi Ratna.

Please visit a neurologist at the earliest as your mother will most certainly require an elaborate evaluation. MRI brain, blood coagulation profile, lipid profile, blood preasure monitoring, etc; are all mandatory evaluations. A stroke or mini-stroke will have to be ruled out at the earliest.

Best wishes.
