Worldwide heart stroke symptoms observed not only in seniors but also young children in teens and adults. Here are some symptoms which we all must be aware not only for our selves but also for our near and dears which are put into an incident to be easy to remember.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Stroke: <\/strong>Remember The 1st Three Letters&#8230; S.T.R ..<\/p>\n<p>During a party, a friend stumbled and took a little fall &#8211; she assured everyone that she was fine and just tripped over a brick because of her new shoes. (they offered to call ambulance)<\/p>\n<p>They got her cleaned up and got her a new plate of food &#8211; while she appeared a bit shaken up, Ingrid went about enjoying herself the rest of the evening. Ingrid&#8217;s husband called later telling everyone that his wife had been taken to the hospital &#8211; (at 6:00pm , Ingrid passed away.)<br \/>\nShe had suffered a stroke at the party. Had they known how to identify the signs of a stroke, perhaps Ingrid would be with us today.<\/p>\n<p>Some don&#8217;t die. They end up in a helpless, hopeless condition instead. It only takes a minute to read this&#8230;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Stroke Identification<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>A neurologist says that if he can get to a stroke victim within 3 hours he can totally reverse the effects of a stroke&#8230;totally. He said the trick was getting a stroke recognized, diagnosed, and then getting the patient medically cared for within 3 hours, which is tough.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Recognizing a Stroke<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Remember the &#8216;3&#8217; steps, STR.\u00a0Sometimes symptoms of a stroke are difficult to identify. Unfortunately, the lack of awareness spells disaster.<br \/>\nThe stroke victim may suffer severe brain damage when people nearby fail to recognize the symptoms of a stroke.\u00a0Now doctors say a bystander can recognize a stroke by asking three simple questions :<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>S * Ask the individual to SMILE ..<\/li>\n<li>T * = TALK. Ask the person to SPEAK A SIMPLE SENTENCE (Coherently)\u00a0(eg &#8216;It is sunny out today&#8217;).<\/li>\n<li>R * Ask him or her to RAISE BOTH ARMS .<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>If he or she has trouble with ANY ONE of these tasks, call the ambulance and describe the symptoms to the dispatcher.<\/p>\n<p>NOTE : Another &#8216;sign&#8217; of a stroke is<br \/>\n1. Ask the person to &#8216;stick&#8217; out their tongue.<br \/>\n2. If the tongue is &#8216;crooked&#8217;, if it goes to one side or the other that is also an indication of a stroke.<\/p>\n<p><em>As a prominent cardiologist says, if everyone who knows this can educate 10 other people; you can bet that at least one life will be saved.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>and it could be your own..<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We all might have received chain mails about symptoms of heart stroke.
