If it's a TIA, then it should go away. But if not, there is physical therapy and speech therapy which can help all of what you have written about. Don't lose faith. Call your doctor to get more help on this and to answer your questions.
It was believed that I had 3 total between 3-6 pm
I've had an TIA on Dec 25 and I'm still feeling numbness and tingle feelings on my fingertips, my speech is slow and slurry, my lip feels swollen, I can't focus and I'm having short term memory loss. Its only been 2 days, but I am sadden by my sudden condition. I have always been very quick with my thoughts, speech, and very athletic. As I read more and more comments on these after effect conditions; I feel as I lost a part of who I am. All the effects, my left knee, left side of my neck, left side of my mouth, my speech slurry , left side vision on and off blurry, my left elbow and forearm, hand and finger tips numb with occasional tender pains and tingling. Will this change too the better or is this the beginning too a different life style
I had a TIA that lasted 3 days. I was unable to speak I thould that TIA were only a few hours. Has anyone had that experience? Also I still feel "fuzzy" I don't comprehend everything I read.

Hi Just read your post and could so relate ...I had aa TIA several years ago then a possible one a year ago and 3 weeks ago had 2 episodes on a Friday then Saturday night...Friday night started with a short stabbing pain in the chest, didn't worry too much coz it quickly went away but then got tingling/numbness in collarbone,jaw, side of fce, lips and hand all on left side went to the hospital where I saw 3 different drs all with different diagnosis and released in the morning....then that day by mid afternoon had a 10 scale headache and immense waves of nausea, confusion and out of body feeling grabbed aspirin and chewed on way to hospital where they said I suffered a migraine (never had one and Im 52)...the pain and nausea went away within approx. an hour and 15 mins after showing at hospital....I am living with my daughter and carer of my 2 1/2 year old grand-daughter and a full-time uni student. Since the last episodes weeks ago I am depressed, anti social, noise sensitive and just want to curl up, I feel lost a lot of the time (not physically- emotionally) and am not able to concentrate on my over due assessment. I have no time for anyone and am very easily irritated. This is the opposite to who I was before and am worried I am not going to get back to my old self. my doctor has me on aspirin and antidepressants (which I don't like to take) and my anxiety is through the roof especially when I have to deal with anything - I have nil stress tolerance also ....arghhh I just hope things get better....thanks ffor reading :-)
