Brief Answer:
I would recommend going to the nearest ER service.

Detailed Answer:
Hello!

Welcome and thank you for asking on HCM!

I carefully passed through your question and would explain that considering your past medical history, your symptoms could be related to a possible stroke.

Have you measured your blood pressure values?

I recommend going to the ER for a careful physical exam, a brain CT scan .

Hope you will find this answer helpful!

Kind regards,

Dr. Iliri
