If what you're referring is sudden onset of right sided head, face, and right upper extremity numbness without any other symptoms you may be suffering from some form of sensory focal vascular deficit or mini-stroke. My advice is to go to either an ER or URGENT CARE CENTER so they can properly examine you and get the history in order to be sure nothing serious is happening. Please rate this a 5 STAR ENCOUNTER and write me at: www.bit.ly/drdariushsaghafi for more information or to ask questions.
