Common Signs of Stroke
Stroke is a dangerous condition and can be fatal or debilitating. Anyone who is showing some signs of a stroke must be taken to the hospital immediately. The signs of stroke includes:
- bad headache, which is often sudden
- inability to control or move a limb
- tingling sensation and numbness of the limb
- difficulty in speaking,
- drooping of one side of the face
- fainting
- confusion
- blurred or loss of vision of both eyes.
Proper diagnostic test should be done if symptoms of diabetic stroke are observed. One of these is to have the patient to hold up both arms at the same height. If he or she cannot do so, then it may be a stroke.
Warning
An ambulance or doctor must be immediately called for help in the event of a diabetic stroke, even if the person will strongly insist that they are okay and they do not want to go to the hospital. When someone suffers from stroke, this cuts off the energy to the brain and the longer the person receives help, the more damage to the brain will occur.
