What Are The Symptoms Of Stroke?

Im wondering if I had a min stroke. I am 31 years old and the other day I was driving when all of a sudden i felt tired. I was on my way to a acupuncture appt at the hospital when i suddenly started loosing my coordination bumping into walls, very dizzy, weak, slurred speech. Also when I was trying to write my hand writing would go from normal to very small and you would not be able to read what i had written. My heart rate was around 150 to 160 beats per min and my blood pressure was 140 over 90 for awhile. They think I might have had an allergic reaction to my blood pressure medication because my legs were very itchy. I scheduled a CT scan for my brain that I will get on Monday. My doctor put the CT scan in after I discussed my symptoms. What does this sound like to you? thanks for replying.

HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, this could be TIA (Transient Ischemic Attack) and this could be due to insufficient blood supply to the brain area and to rule out this CT brain is the only option there, till then you need to wait and have some rest, hope this information helps, take care.
