Could this have been a stroke ?

[Speedo1968]

I had Parkinsons and multiple TIA’s between 2001 – 2011but both stopped; three and half years ago a stroke complicated with Rhab ( over 2 days on the floor ) and, a pacemaker fitted 5 weeks ago.

Yesterday around 6pm I suddenly felt pressure and tenderness in my left eye, followed by numbness to the left side of my face and pressure in the left side of my neck, the numbness to my face is less today by noticeable in the mouth.     Probably a silly question but could this have been a stroke ?

Yes, absolutely. .

 

See a neurologist immediately

Go see a doctor instead of asking in a forum

actually, researching the matter on the internet using reputable sources as well as considering the answers of knowledgeable people on a forum in addition of visiting a doctor can save lives.

 

too often some doctors will dismiss patients for various reasons despite them showing serious symptoms. this happens everywhere, not just Thailand.

You must not put yourself at any undue risk.

Go to an A& E at any Hospital right away.

If you have the history of the OP and get numbness in your face, you need to see a doctor immediately not wait a day and go to the internet.
