why paralysis attack comes - #19930

Advait

I am really concerned about something that’s been happening to me and I hope someone here can help. About a month ago, I woke up one morning and couldn't move my left arm properly. It felt kinda numb, you know? It was scary. I went to the doc, and after some tests, they said it was a transient ischemic attack. So they threw around terms like stroke and paralysis, and honestly, I kinda freaked. I mean, why paralysis attack comes out of nowhere like that? I thought it was only something you read about, not happens to like people you know. They gave me some meds and told me to monitor my blood pressure. But here I am, trying to understand why paralysis attack happens in the first place. Is it like, just a freak thing or is there something deeper going on? Like, do I need to change my whole lifestyle? I’ve been trying to eat better and get active again, but I keep wondering if it could happen again. Someone told me stress could trigger it, but like, hard to avoid stress in this life! Why paralysis attack comes, really? What should I be looking for going forward? Any thoughts appreciated!
