Entire left of body goes numb inside: not stroke, it’s not TIA, MS

I also suffer from this issue and have found a diagnosis that I'm going to be talking to my doctor about, and it is Hemiparesis. It's a known diagnosis in the VA rating system and besides the TBI I had, TIA almost 40 years ago and seizure blackout that got me retired from the military. It been difficult to explain this issue to the doctor, so they understand. It's a fine line since I know it can have loose driving privileges by the state, self-report - 6 months, doctor report - 1 year.

Welcome @rok1756, You are not alone in trying to explain issues or symptoms to your doctor so they can understand. @thielejet2022 and @patrassi have also mentioned experience with hemiparesis in other discussions and may have some thoughts or experience they can share with you. Have you found anything that helps you manage the issues?
