Man, 44, Learns He’s Been Living with Half a Brain After a Common Symptom

The 44-year-old started feeling a mild pain in his leg, which prompted him to visit his doctor two weeks later.

A man discovered he had been living with just half a brain after being hit by a common symptom that plagues millions.

The unnamed 44-year-old from the south of France started feeling a mild pain and weakness in his leg for around two weeks, which prompted him to visit his doctor.

More than a third of Americans suffer from some form of leg pain, which is usually down to muscle strain, arthritis or harder-to-identify causes, like vascular issues.

After doctors ruled out those common physical causes, they were concerned it could be due to a neurological condition that affects nerve endings.
