Symptoms of BASILAR INSUFFICIENCY
Vertebro basilar insufficiency produces a variety of symptoms. These include dizziness, double vision, difficulty talking, facial weakness and numbness. In addition, weakness or numbness may occur on one or both sides of the body. Unsteady gait may occur, blurred vision and loss of vision may occur. Occasionally, drop attacks, sudden generalized weakness and memory loss may occur.
In situations where disease within the arteries leading to the arm exists, exercise of the arm may redirect blood from the vertebral arteries to the arm. This exercise may produce the symptoms listed above.
