Urgently visit to an ER

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
I have gone through your question and understand your concern.

You may have developed acute stroke.

You need to urgently visit an ER with facilities for thrombolysis.
Timely thrombolysis with rtPA will be very beneficial in cases of acute ischaemic stroke.

Urgent CT-scan of brain and hospitalization is required.

Hope you found the answer helpful.
Please visit nearest emergency room and if possible make a phone call to the ER.

Wish you a good health.
