Young Person Life on Stroke

Stroke that change my life and effect my family

In December 2003, that morning I went to work as usual and doing work, suddenly I felt my left portion of my body is numb and fell down from the chair and asked for help. My manager came to me and took me to hospital, then doctor diagnosed I had a stroke. Before week or 2 I was having nausea and I was feeling my legs are burning sensation but doctor told me to take painkiller and take rest. I don't have BP nor Diabetic, still I had stroke, when anyone has burning sensation in leg and having nausea immediately go to doctor to check whether it is not a stroke.
