Needs a mri

Detailed Answer:
Hi,
I am Dr Mittal. I have read your message. I think I can help you. The symptoms of the query are quite suggestive of a possible nerve issue. There could be an ongoing stroke. a possibility of cervical cord lesion also needs to be considered.
I suggest mri brain with TOF with screen cervical spine.
Meeting a neurologist should help you after the mri.
Do let us know the reports. I have tried to make it as simple as possible. I hope that the information contained in this message will be able to help you find the best solution for your problem. Best of luck. Dr Mittal
