SomeoneElseIt looks like a TIA, but it could be a lot of things at his age. NAD, but I’ve had a one myself.
It it as utterly terrifying as it looks too an outsider?
No. Don’t get me wrong, it’s definitely scary but it’s closer to confusing and weird than terrifying. I can’t really remember anything from when it was happening, just a kind of detached “this isn’t right” and then the confusion when I came around (so to speak). Other people’s reactions were more upsetting than the event. My mum was beside herself.
I am a doctor.
That’s what I thought when I saw it as well, that we saw a TIA live on video.
He’s probably “fine” for the time being.
I thought his return was pretty quick. I had a massive headache and wasn’t nearly as articulate as he was moments after. I wonder if the politician Schlick comes out automatically after so many years?!
TIAs are very quick. They aren’t always detected because of that
Yeah the actual event didn’t last more than 2 minutes. But I didn’t feel right for a day or two after.
My dad had one a few years before he had a stroke, and it was only in retrospect that we figured out he had had one.
Mini stroke. Transient Ischemic Attack. It’s often a warning of a big stroke.
Thank you
Transient ischemic attack for anyone else who wasn’t sure of the acronym.
Trans Islamic attack?!!
THANKS LIBERALS
It could be a seizure as well. Not all seizures are full body, foaming at the mouth.
