Title: Health Smarts III
Post by: JaniceSW on September 02, 2020, 12:44:49 pm
Which is LEAST likely to be a sign of a stroke?

A.  Sudden numbness
B.  Sudden confusion
C.  Sudden trouble seeing
D.  Sudden irregular heartbeat (atrial fibrillation)
E.  Sudden dizziness

D.  Atrial fibrillation increases the risk of a stroke, but it's not a sign that you're having a stroke.  Don't delay calling 911 if you have the other symptoms, or ones like face drooping, arm weakness, or slurred speech.  Time lost is brain lost!!!

Interesting.

I saw a picture of what someone potentially sees when they are having a stroke, & it was very odd, you could see objects, but none of it made sense & nothing was identifiable, it was like seeing nonsense.  Very strange.
