Yes I have already taken it to my primary care and my psychiatrist my cat scan was clear and negative for stroke like I said I'm waiting on some other test from another doctor next week hopefully we have an answer my daughter suggested that maybe I stop breathing in the night because of my sleep apnea and I could have gotten some brain damage I certainly hope that isn't it

Stroke was the first thing that popped in my head as well. Stroke is not only a huge life threatening event that many people think of. You can have mini strokes that go unnoticed.

It sounds like you may have had a stroke. Remember, even if we were medical professionals on this site we cannot nor should we even try to diagnose what is wrong. There could be many reasons why this has happened. We shouldn’t guess even if we’ve had the same experience.

You absolutely need to see your doctor ASAP. You need a face to face examination and testing to diagnose what has happened.
