What Causes Slurred Speech?
Trouble with slurred speech occasion as well as sometimes having to concentrate highly on each word as I say it otherwise i won t be able to say it. and trouble with quickly putting up hand gestures (holding up a number). Happens indipendant of each other at random times at day or night. It s almost like (for both) that the message isn t going through properly. Idk if it s normal or a sign of something to come.

Thanks for your question on Healthcare Magic.
I can understand your concern.
In my opinion, you should definitely consult neurologist and get done detailed clinical examination.
You will also need MRI and EEG (electro encephalo gram) brain.
Sometimes brain atrophy or early infarction can lead to these symptoms.
If MRI and EEG are normal then no need to worry much.
Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.
