Hi,
It's better to consult a specialist immediately if you have difficulty in speaking and decreased motion of the left arm so that they can diagnose and start treatment.
These are most probably the signs of a stroke if so it's better to consult immediately or else the physician can diagnose and point out the condition and give you better treatment.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
