Cold Sensation, Red Spots On Face. Had Stroke In Brain Stem Months Back, Recovered Slowly. Any Ideas?

I had a stroke in my brain stem in Jan 2013, it effected my eyes, face, throat and left side of my body. After a few months I began to recover slowly, however I am now having this cold sensation (feels like my face is wet with wind
blowing on it). It came and went at first but increased in frequency. I began having red spots where I felt the sensation on my face. I went to my pcp who referred me to a nuerologist. Since then, the sensation will occasionally change to
hot. I've noticed fatigue and the same feelings to my left side of my body.. Any Ideas?

Hi, Stroke stroke usually occur due to thrombosis, or hemorrhage,and in the process of recovery, the nerves become active, and there may be some variation of the stimulation, due to which there may be variation of the sensation.
The thing is whether you are continuing the medication or not, if stopped the medicines, consult your doctor for follow up, and continue the medicines. Thank you.
