New sign of stroke. Share and save lives.

15. Thanks. I do tell everyone who will listen about...

my only symptom being what feels like a foot going to sleep but won't go away.

I don't think that symptom happens to many people and is not anything that most professionals have seen or heard about. Which is why they treated me in a non-emergency way, imho. They were puzzled about what the heck was wrong with me and so was I.

My Dr. always checks now to see if I can push good and hard with my hands and feet. I can. I just have this kind of dead weight with a foot falling asleep tingling feeling all down my left side. Weird. But it obviously does happen sometimes.

Thank you for the job you do. With people like you helping to pass on my symptoms to other professionals maybe someone else will be helped quicker than I was.
