Hi. You may have seen my posts the other day about numbness in my face. Well, yesterday was a better day, but today I seem to have fallen backwards again into the spiral of panic.
This morning, my right leg felt a little weird, but this isn't the first time I have experiened it. It is although it feels numb or strange, but when I touch it I can feel it. I sit with my right leg over my left when I am at my desk so I'm not sure if this is what is causing the feeling. I have a bad right eye and ocassionally get pain from it, which I wasn't worried about. But as the day has gone on, every now and then the right side of my face feels funny and I keep worrying that it is numb. I keep prodding at it and poking it, touching both sides of my face and I can still feel it. Does this mean that it isn't numb after all?
I have got it in my head that this could be a stroke or that it is the start of one. I am only 19 and I have been doing so well with my h.a, but over the past week, I have took two step backwards again.
Can anyone please re-assure me that this is not a stroke? And has anyone ever had these symptoms?
Thanks x
