Hi,
Thanks for writing in.

It is possible that the auto accident caused a concussion injury in you. This is the mildest form of brain injury without any structural damage on imaging investigations. This takes a while to get normal and memory problems can occur. The tingling in left arm can be due to problems in the cervical spine or the brain itself. There was some evolving stroke like condition in your brain that was pre existing. After your auto accident this further intensified probably due to stress involved. All the factors acting together caused a stroke in you.
