Sudden, Severe Headache With Numbness, Tingling In Hand And Blurred Vision, Fast Heart Rate. What These Symptoms Suggest?

A few hours ago I had a sudden, severe headache on the left side with numbness and tingling in my right hand and blurred vision . The severe headache lasted 2 hours. The tingling in the right hand is still there and my heart rate is 112 after resting. I now have pain in my right shoulder and arm. Any idea what is going on?

Hi welcome to Health care magic forum. Sudden head ache, numb ness and tingling in right hand, blurred vision, rapid heart rate is suggestive of hypertension. to evaluate exactly age and past hystory of hypertension is missing.
Though you get cleared of the symptoms, i advise you to consult a cardiologist for confermation of the underlying disease.
I advise you to follow some diet recommendations as avoid taking spices, chillies, junk foods, and oily foods and cut short the usage of excess of salt as these can increase the B.P.and also cause irrelavent symptoms.
I hope you are satisfied with myreply and thanks for calling.
