Brief Answer:
Please go to the nearest hospital with CT scan or MRI facility

Detailed Answer:
Hello Mr XXXXXXX

Thank you for your query.

Sudden inability to move any of your limbs is indicative of a stroke in the brain and needs to be looked into without delay.

I request you to kindly go to a hospital nearest to you that has CT scan facility and a neurologist.

If the CT scan is normal, then we can discuss further about other causes.

I hope you understand the urgency in my response.

I hope it turns out to be nothing serious.

Best wishes
