[|Human|] Hi, last night while I was studying I began to notice that the left side of my body had became very heavy feeling. I do not believe that a stroke was the cause but I am still feeling it today. Any idea if this problem is stress related due to my exams?
[|AI|]  Hello, welcome to Chat Doctor.com stress can cause somatic symptoms like heaviness in hands, head, limbs, difficulty to speak as well. Usually our mind try to cope up with different stress through different mechanisms, however during stress overload when over conscious mind fails to control the stress, our unconscious mind comes into play.in order to seek support from external environment, our unconscious mind do illicit some physical or mental symptoms of which we are unaware of, in order to relieve the conscious mind. As you mentioned your exams are nearby, you are under stress, hence to cope up with your stress, your unconscious mind may develop this symptom. I would advise you to relax your self. Try to maintain your sleep hygiene, sleep well for 6-8 hours, eat healthy, have healthy interaction with family and friends as well and don't let the exam worry catch you. Further query in future do followup with me.
