Hemiplegic migraine?

Question

The other day I had a problem. My vision started getting all messed up and that lasted for about 30mins. Then my right hand and arm went numb and I had a tingley feeling in them. Then my lip on the right side went numb. Then I started to get very very confused and I was getting all my words mixed up and not making sence. I also vomited about 4 times. It was very scary. Then I had a really bad migrane on the left side that lasted about 6 hours. Im only 16 by the way. I had the same thing happen to me when I was on a trip to the Dominican Republic and I thought it was because I was dehydrated. Guess not. My mom said she used to get Migraines when she was a kid.

Answer 1

That actually sounds like a stroke, or a mini stroke. I had the exact same thing minus the numbness. You seem to be fine now, but it wouldn't hurt to get a head CT just in case. Call your doc and let them know exactly what happened. And no, you're not too young to have a stroke, I had one at 19..

Good luck!
