Hello,
You have suffered stroke as per the CT report that you have mentioned. However you have not mentioned your age. stroke is usually seen in elderly age groups. Stroke is associated with neurological problems like weakness, loss of sensation etc. Seizure and collapse that you have mentioned is also seen with stroke. You need to undergo tests for evaluation for risk factors for stroke. If any of those are found, you need to be treated for that.
Good luck.
