Scenario 2
EB is an anxious 68-year-old male. He was at a friend's house when his right arm became numb and he began to feel dizzy. He had had a few beers that night and thought his symptoms were from the alcohol, so he went home to sleep it off. The next afternoon (15 hours later), the right arm numbness continued and he had developed a throbbing headache. He drove himself to the nearest emergency room, where he was diagnosed with a mild ischemic stroke (NIH Stroke Scale = 3).
Medical History: hypertension, diabetes, hyperlipidemia, smokes cigars, and drinks alcohol occasionally. There is no history of previous strokes or neurological disorders.
