hi. Looks like you left this posting a while ago. What I have learned in the past 5 days is that you should never wait if you have symptoms of a stroke. Mine started when the left side of my face went numb. Within 1 hour I went to the er. Granted, the er wasn't fun, but they did a ct scan and mri to check. The neurologist also came in. It is a very serious thing and it is better to miss some time from work than risk the chance for permanent numbness, etc. Don't every wait. You are more important than the job and must remember that. I hope you are fine.
