What Causes Sudden Staggering Towards The Left?

Around noon today I had a spell; went to walk and staggered to the left. I was not dizzy or sick. Went to sit down and continued to staggered, had to have assistance. Left eye was blurry. Only last about 5 minutes. I do have heart disease and vascular disease, but never have had any thing like this.

Hello,
Having read your brief history, this may be a symptom of a transient ischemic attack. Please let me now the details of the heart / vascular diseases you have mentioned so that it can be evaluated further. I should also mention that you should get examined by a Neurophysician as soon as possible.
Thank you.
