Hi - you have GOT to get your GP on the case. I am no medic, but experienced a slightly similiar problem with my mother - in her case it righted itself, which I guess might be a hopeful sign.

For what it's worth (and remember I am in no way qualified) it could be one or more of three things:

A stroke of some sort

An infection causing weakness

A reaction to medication

Kick and holler until you get the GP round - it may be something you can do nothing about, but let's hope it may be fixable.

Good luck and keep plugging at the GP.
