I was studying in the United States when I returned to Hong Kong for the Christmas holiday to visit my family and friends. I was supposed to return to the United States a few days after the incident occurred. However, after I passed out, my family and I decided that I should stay in Hong Kong and not continue my studies in the United States.

After the fainting episode in January, I stayed in the hospital for three days before being discharged and scheduled for an MRI scan. The doctor kept following up on my condition and advised me to wait for the results of the MRI scan. He also said that many people faint once or twice in their lifetime and there might not be anything to worry about if there are no underlying issues.

The hospital asked me to come back in mid-February to receive the results, but on the day of my appointment, they said that the results were not yet available, and I needed to wait for a while. During this period, I needed to pay attention to my body and seek medical attention if I experienced any issues. If there were no problems, I could continue to live my life as usual.

I decided to study English and take exams during this time, and everything was fine until my family suggested that we go to Canada for a change of scenery.

Although the results of the MRI scan were not yet available, I still needed to have a follow-up appointment. The doctor suspected that the fainting episode might have been a residual effect of a previous stroke, but he needed to see the results to confirm.

Finally, at the end of July, the results of the MRI scan came out, and they showed that there was a scar in my brain caused by a previous stroke. However, the doctor suspected that the fainting episode might not be a residual effect of the stroke, but rather an unknown medical condition. He advised me to continue monitoring my health and seek medical attention if I experienced any further episodes.

During that summer, I stayed with my relatives in Canada. After a month or two, I suddenly felt weak on one side of my body and fell down, with my arms and legs convulsing. I was taken to the emergency room, where the doctors found my symptoms to be unusual and couldn't determine the cause. After resting for a while, they discharged me.

After that incident, I made up my mind to return to Hong Kong because I was afraid that my strange illness would inconvenience my relatives. I only told them that I missed them and wanted to go back to Hong Kong to see if there were any treatment options available.
