Very happy to hear that it was not a stroke. I thought I would take a moment to discuss some of the signs of a stroke since it is the 3rd leading cause of death, so that everyone is better prepared.
-Sudden weakness or numbness in the face, arms, or legs, especially on one side of the body.
-sudden confusion (disoriented to person, place, or time), difficultly speaking, or comprehension problems
