A member asked:

Hi, my niece 12 yrs had a sudden numbness and weakness on left part of body, is it lack of heamoglobin?or somethng else

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Thots: You might be describing an episode of hemiplegic migraine or another migraine variant, but i cannot exclude structural blood vessel dissection. This has little to do with hemoglobin unless she possesses sickle cell disease, which might explain the episode. Have her seen by pediatric neurologist.
