You need to go back to the ER with the stoke symptoms you describe.

Anytime you have these symptoms, immediate medical attention is necessary. Your previous episodes could have been the pre cursor to a stroke. The symptoms are:

FAST which means FACE, ARM, SPEECH AND TIME. If your face is different, your arm or leg is impaired, your speech has changed then TIME is of the essence in treatment.

While I understand your feelings about doctors, you do not want a stroke to go untreated. Please let us know what happens next.
