Stroke Symptom

stroke symptom pictureThere are 3 easy SYMPTOMS to look for to tell if a person has just had a stroke:

1. A twisted face best seen when the person smiles.

2. Slurred speech.

3. Ask the person to stretch out their arms and close their eyes. One side will drift down in a stroke.

If you find any one of these symptoms in a person that never had it before, the chance that they've had a stroke is 72%!!!!

 

 

Things you might actually feel if you're having a stroke include:

  • Sudden Violent Headache - the worse you've ever had.
  • Sudden loss of Seeing from one or both eyes.
  • Sudden Weakness of a part or half of your body.
  • Suddenly having Slurred Speech or inability to speak.

If you notice the above, get help IMMEDIATELY - the earlier you get to a hospital stroke center the better your chance for full recovery. Call for an Ambulance!
