No, in a stroke, the symptoms often don't include any discomfort or pain and is more likely associated with losing feeling or the ability to move. Much of the time, a stroke only affects one side of the body.

When the to part of the brain is suddenly shut off it is called a stroke or brain attack?

Either one is equally correct, depending on the context. The word stroke - usually modified by ischemic or hermorrhagic - tends to be used in medical settings. The phrase "brain attack" was coined to help people understand that the event is very similar to what happens in a heart attack and requires the same immediate medical attention.
