I would probably take a trip to A&E to get that looked at. All the symptoms you've mentioned indicate you should get it looked at sooner rather than later. I know A&E is not the nicest of places but numbness, jaw and neck pain are not symptoms to be ignored.

Obviously - you know your medical history better than others but really - those symptoms should be looked at.

As soon as this started you should have gone to A & E immediately - not driving yourself.

If this happens again don't wait go immediately - my husband was in theatre within 25 minutes of this happening.

Don't Worry - that only makes things worse but I would see your GP sooner rather than later or go to your hospital clinic. Hope you are soon better x
