lets start over.
I did not lose function of the left side of my body I meant it felt like something left my body I have to get up and go at all.
we did not get result of the blood tests
the exam was done 4 or 5 years ago around age 50 and nothing was found
no brain images done at all recently but I have not thought about it for along time but when I was a child (5 or 6) I had a lot of brain images for migraine headaches.
I have had a heart stent 2 years ago
gradually over the last 2 weeks I feel that I have been lightheaded confused and heavy chest like being sick but very tired and just sleep for days and then very quickly feel unrested

Brief Answer:
Further examinations needed.
Detailed Answer:
Welcome back and thanks for the clarifications.
In this case then, thyroid function tests needed to be evaluated ( thyroid hormones levels ).
Since there are neurologic symptoms such confusion and lightheadedness with changes in sensorium of the half of the body, and the risk of the cardiac condition that may be related to stroke, brain imaging studies ( CT scan or better MRI ) are needed as well.
I think these are important steps in diagnosing your condition.
These examinations and test need to be discussed with your primary care Doctor.
Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care.
