Are you wondering if what you are seeing is a Mini Stroke Symptom? This article will help you identify what a Mini Stroke Symptom may look like. If you or someone dear to you, is exhibiting a Mini Stroke Symptom, get them immediate medical care.
Mini Stroke Symptom - Taste, Vision and Speech
Some people who have suffered a stroke report a change in their sense of taste. Other stroke patients have reported a complete loss of their ability to taste. Depending upon which part of the brain is affected by the stroke will determine the extent of the damage, as well as how the Mini Stroke Symptom manifests itself. But, it is not just the sense of taste that is affected by a stroke. Many stroke patients report a change in their ability to focus, see clearly and in some cases, see at all.
Another common Mini Stroke Symptom is the loss of speech. A person may be having a stroke if they are suddenly not able to speak clearly and coherently. For the person experiencing the Mini Stroke Symptom, this may prove to be a very trying and difficult time. In his mind, they are able to "hear" themselves speak, they know the correct words to say and how to string them together to make a coherent sentence. But, they are not able to verbalize their thoughts clearly. Depending upon the severity of the stroke, some people have to relearn how to speak and walk.
Mini Stroke Symptom - Muscle Weakness, Numbness and Trembles
One of the most prominent Mini Stroke Symptom is an overall sense of muscle weakness. Numbness, in all or part of the body is another Mini Stroke Symptom to be aware of. If you or someone you are with begins to complain about numbness in their body, you need to take this very seriously. This is definitely one of the most often seen Mini Stroke Symptom, so react accordingly. Some stroke patients have also reported a sense of trembling in their bodies during the initial stage of their stroke. This could appear as an uncontrollable shivering or shakes. If you are not in a very cold area, please consider this as a possible Mini Stroke Symptom and seek immediate medical attention.
Mini Stroke Symptom - Time is of the Essence
When it comes to helping someone who may be having a stroke, you are going to want to look at the signs. Make sure that when you do see some of the signs and symptoms, that you seek medical help immediately. I know this was just mentioned above, but this can not be stressed enough. You will want to get them medical attention quickly so that you can help your loved one. If they are experiencing a stroke, every minute that you delay in seeking help may cause more brain damage. Because of the prevalence of a repeat stroke, it is especially important to be looking for stroke signs if the person has already had one or more strokes.
In this article we have looked at some of the possible Mini Stroke Symptom that you may see in someone who is experiencing a stroke. Please do not take this lightly, especially if a person has a history of prior strokes. If in doubt, seek immediate medical attention.
