Am I to young?

I don't know exactly what is going on with me. I am a 35 year old woman and there have been a few times i have had neck pain that goes up to my jaw.  Last night I had the same thing happen again only this time with something new along with it. it almost felt as if someone were pushing in on my cheekbone at the same time i was having this  the left cheek bone and felt little like i had a string or something on the side of my mouth pulling it downward. just slightly. this morning i feel okay other than a headache and i got up early this morning because i went to bed early last night because i had a feeling as if i were drunk but had not been drinking anything. felt a bit disoriented.  I still have a little of the pulling sensation on the side of my mouth and chin but not as bad as last night. Am i to young for a stroke? or could this have been a very minor one?

I agree, go to a doctor immediately! My mom waited 2 days after experincing a severe headache and she ended up freezing up and becoming incoherent. Come to find out, she had 2 strokes and several mini ones!
