So I had a weird condition a few months ago that I had to see a neurologist for he’s trying to rule out everything. Hemiplegic was a thought. What has your symptoms been with it!?

hi! so at first i was diagnosed with “silent migraines” bc i didn’t get full on weakness till this year. i get numbness+tingling on one side of my body, with weakness. i’ll also lose hearing on that side and like drool. visual disturbances too. it’s a lot of stroke-like symptoms without having an actual stroke

I had only one hemiplegic migraine (so far haha) but I assumed it was a migraine and not a stroke when it was happening because I already have migraines with aura. I couldn’t see (blurry, aura), I couldn’t talk (like my mouth was numb), the left side of my body was numb, the left side of my face didn’t move, and I also couldn’t remember who my uncle was (I don’t remember all the way, maybe it was just that so couldn’t think of his name). It only lasted about an hour.

I have Hemiplegic Migraines. Diagnosed 20 years ago. It's been a long haul.
