I agree with DJ. Never let a Dr. make you feel paranoid.With this disease you can not take anything for granted. I would want any little change in my daughter to be checked out so I don't blame you for being worried. Kathleen had at least 5 strokes in 3 months last year.Between surgeries last year her left leg started "jumping" it continued all day and later that night she had a very bad stroke. I'm not sure if this was the beginning of the stroke it never happened with the others.DJ's right about the MRA it's a simple test to tell if anything new might be happening.We went to the ER everytime we suspected a new stroke and they always admitted her.Good luck and keep us posted.
