Why could my left hand feel oddly weak?

Act FAST!: Check out http://www.stroke.org/understand-stroke/recognizing-stroke/act-fast. F = facial asymmetry or drooping. A = arm/leg weakness. S = speech difficulties. T = time (you have less than 3hrs to get to ER for diagnosis & treatment) so call 911 to expedite your evaluation & care. Don't wait to see if weakness goes away.
