It could be a brain tumor |
|
acute episodes when a person loses speech can indicate a brain tumor. Hope it is not that.

4. Well, I don't know about that. I seriously doubt it's leprosy, for example. |

3. That was my first thought |
|
My grandmother had diabetes and she would stammer and nearly faint when her blood sugar dropped.

8. Maybe aneurysm, not a stroke? |
|
Generally similar symptoms. He may require some major surgery that is followed by alot of rehabilitation, including speech, occupational, and physical therapy, depending on the location of the affected vessel and how it is managed.

But if it is a non-malignant calcareous mass tumor it could be removed in a long operation with high success rate.

Transient Ischemic Accident TIA (small clot, symptoms subside quickly) or low blood sugar. Because he responded so quickly my bet is on TIA...
