Unlikely cancer: However more concerning is your hypertension, is it well controlled? Do you lead a healthy lifestyle?, do you smoke? Are you overweight or obese? All these risk factors can affect your blood pressure which can affect your nervous system including your brain and may cause such weakness you suffered. Kindly keep the follow-up with your doctor and keep taking medicines as prescribed , best wishes
