Stroke . Part II
How do you know if you or someone else is having a stroke ? Much of it depends on the severity of a stroke.
A common warning may be a TIA (transient ischemic attack) This is short lived temporary slurring of speech or blindness, numbness, or even a loss of speech entirely. This may last several seconds to several minutes, with a complete recovery. A complete stroke may occur in minutes, hours, or days.
Stroke is not uncommon. Stroke is a medical emergency...call 911. Do not attempt to drive to a hospital.
Being proactive and knowledgeable may save a life.
