[|Human|] Hi,For the past year I have had what I call funny turns. Without warning i become tingly all over and a feeling of numbness sweeps over me and i find it difficult to speak. I become a bit shaky and then it seems to pass. I can have up to five episodes a day or it can drop to once a month. After an episode it feels like everything has slowed down and i find it very difficult to get my words out & think of the most simple vocabulary. My brain doesn t work quickly and i feel removed from reality. I think these episodes are now becoming more frequent and increasing in duration. I have had an ECG but that was fine.Could you help with a diagnosis?
[|AI|]  Hello there, Based on your symptoms you seem to be having TIA(transient Ischemic attacks). Your brains blood vessels are not allowing enough blood through them and that leads you to have episodes that affect different parts of the brain. This can be detected if we can visualize the blood vessels supplying to your brain through a digital subtraction angiography and also a CT to study any areas of low blood supply in the brain. Since these tests are expensive I would advise you to consult a neurologist before proceeding further. Other possible differentials could be focal seizures of the brain or raised intracranial pressure. Hope this helps, Please feel free to ad Chat Doctor.  I will be happy to answer them
