1.YOU MAY THINK YOUR ARM IS NUMB BECAUSE IT "JUST SORT OF FELL ASLEEP"
When you wake up and your limbs are numb,you may assume it is as a result of nerve compression."If your arm is suddenly numb or weak, and it doesn't go away in a few minutes, call an ambulance,"says Professor Ralph Sacco, a neurology specialist at the University of Miami. Decreased blood supply through the blood vessels that run up your spine to the back of your head causes numbness or weakness on one side of the body.

2.YOU MAY HAVE SUDDEN COGNITIVE DEFECTS
Sudden cognitive deficits are a telltale sign of stroke. You might sometimes experience tip-of-the-tongue phenomenon (TOT), sometimes called avoir le mot sur le bout de la langue in French, but there shouldn't be a long period of time where you can't think of anything to say or be unable to speak.

3.YOU ASSUME ALCOHOLIC INTOXICATION IS BEHIND YOUR WOBBLINESS.
Balance issues could be due to a decrease in the brain's blood supply and not just alcohol. If you unexpectedly start stumbling, or experiencing sudden dizziness, don't just wait for it to pass; seek medical assistance immediately.
