Hello,
Thanks for the query to H.C.M. Forum.
I would come up with these possibilities for this numbness on left side of body with headache, these includes.
1 Tumor , diagnosis can be confirmed by M R I of skull . As you are complaining that there is pounding headache with numbness in left arm and leg. so chance of any tumor can'r rule out.
2 Acute sinusitis also develops such type of intense pain in head with feeling of drowsiness .Diagnosis can be confirmed by physical examination by an E N T .
3 If your age is around 50 years then may be due to glaucoma in the eye . Diagnosis can be confirmed by examination by an ophthalmologist .
In my opinion consult a neurologist and get his opinion.
Good luck. Dr. HET
