Hey people. I just had anxiety some 10mins ago and that was very horrible because, my left side was really numb and weak. It wasnt like I cant move or something, but it was weak and in my head was only stroke and it made so damn worse, I tought im gonna call ambulance, but it went away. I really tought I had stroke even if I had same panic attacks many many times. I started again googling symptoms, tried to find out when you have stroke if you can move hand or you totally cant. Problem is I cannot clean my mind from those disease like Stroke and heart attack... Anyone have same? Btw im 20 and I know stroke and heart attack most is impossible in those ages, but google told me 20s people can also have those disease.. Damn it.

    I've had similar symptoms. At times  I've had Lost of muscles down one side.  couldn't speak n sounded drunk. Choked on water. 

    I went to the docs, had blood test and brain scan. They were thinking I'd had mini stokes or worse.

    It turns out that when I get stressed the blood can't circulate property  due to  tiny nodules on my neck caused by injury that I don't remember. 

    I now do neck and breathing exercises and it rarely happens.  

    Try neck n shoulder exercises ( especially if you tend to bent over a computer!) 

    its quite a common complaint but if it continues get it checked out for your own sanity. It helps if someone has seen it happen. Good luck x
