Recognize the signs of stroke FAST - Witness

Would you know when someone is having a stroke? Recognizing the signs and acting quickly could mean the difference between life and death, or between a full recovery and lasting disability. Just remember FAST, which stands for: Face - is it drooping? Arms - can you raise both? Speech - is it slurred or jumbled? And Time, to call 9-1-1 or your local emergency service right away.

A helpful tip I was given in first aid training is not asking them to raise their arms but ask them to squeeze your hands. If you ask them to raise their arms and one doesn’t raise they will start to panic, the best thing to do is keep them calm. If they squeeze your hands and one hand isn’t squeezing then it’s still a clear sign of stroke but you can reassure them “good job” and they won’t start to panic.

[@anghocbaingan]

[@DrAnderson1]

This is excellent advice, thank you for taking the time to leave such a well thought out & important comment. I hope no one who reads this will ever have to use this information, but in the unfortunate event that they do, I hope it helps save a life. My mom had a stroke last night. I’ve been a medical doctor for over a decade & suddenly it was like everything I’ve ever learned just fell out of my head. Luckily I was sitting next to her, and we were talking, so the second it began I knew she was having a stroke….first responders were heading to the ER with her only 5 minutes & 37 seconds after it started. She was in the ER less than 15 minutes after it started, and within 30 minutes she had already seen a neurologist. Because it all came together so quickly, she was an appropriate candidate for TPA. Today her speech has nearly returned to normal, and facial drooping is nearly gone. She feels good today & she’s expected to make a full recovery with no deficits. It’s so important to receive medical care as quickly as possible following a stroke - that’s what saved my mom’s life last night. Your advice here might just save the life of someone else’s loved one in the future. ❤

My second stroke happened yesterday, 7 months after the first stroke. It took 6 months for me to get any news from a doctor that I had a stroke. Both strokes were involving a significant fuzzed out blind spot, first one in left vision, second in right vision. Plant based diet has helped me recover the left hand vision, got rid of confusion, I never had the FaST symptoms, it should be “Be Fast” Balance / Eyes / Face drooping / arm weakness or numbness / slur speech / time to call 911. Having only got the first stroke diagnosed last month in February, eventhough it happened back in August of prior year, I was the one who announced yesterday I need to go to the ER.

I went into a coma for 2 weeks. Im lucky to be alive. Unfortunately half my body doesn’t work. Stroke can be devestating, life changing. Get to the hospital fast! Dont be like me. Stroke can happen to young people too, to anyone! Millions of brain cells die every second you wait and some of them cells are critical. For any of you suffering from stroke, look up neuroplasticity. Some function can be restored through repeated actions over months or years. I wish you all well.

He made it out the hospital and out of therapy but about 5 months later, he had a heart attack and passed away right in front of me. It happened about 6 months ago and I still don’t think ive fully come to grips with my dad actually being gone. I miss him a lot and hope to see him again someday.

This hits hard since my dad had a hemorrhagic stroke this past December, especially when it happened almost exactly the same way as it did in this video. My mom got home from work and was having a normal conversation with him while I played video games in my room. Then I heard my mom yelling “why is your face drooping???”, and that was it. I remember us trying to drive him to the hospital but locked ourselves out of the house in a panic and I ended up calling 911. He was unresponsive and unable to give his name and DoB to the paramedics albeit being conscious. It was also much more difficult than it could have been because neither of my parents speak English, and since we speak an uncommon language I had to try to translate everything while feeling like I might pass out myself. It was just me in the back of the ambulance with him, and that 5 minute ride to the hospital felt like it lasted hours. It was raining so hard that night. All I could think about was a fight I got into with him over some silly things just moments before, and I wished to god that it wouldn’t be the last conversation I could have with him. I took him for granted. When the urgent care doc told me that my dad had a bleeding in his brain and he might be put on ventilator and/ or be paralyzed, I felt as if the world came crashing down on me. I never felt such immense feeling of doom in my life. My grandfather passed years earlier with the exact same type of stroke/ brain bleeding. I didn’t sleep for a week after that when I stayed in the ICU with him because I feared that each moment with him would be my last. But my dad defied all expectations. He was discharged after 2 weeks and is expected to make a full recovery. He’s going through physical therapy right now, and I couldn’t be more thankful that he’s doing okay. You really never see it coming when someone has a stroke. I’m so glad he wasn’t alone. I’m so glad he didn’t have a fall without me and mom knowing. The memories of that night and his entire stay in the hospital is still so fresh in my mind that I bawled my eyes out while watching this video as if I’m reliving it again. Please try to cherish your family and loved ones while you still can. ❤

@@Miniflower25 So "Govor" aka Speech. If a person is having a stroke. They'll talk gibberish or slurred speech Roke - Hands: One part of the Body (Left and Right) will be effected. For example in Raising hand test. One arm will stand in its formation while the other hand will immediately fall (meaning that part of body is num, depends on the which side of the brain was effected by Hemorrhagic stroke) > because if left side of the brain is effected, right side of the body (arms, legs, feeling, etc) is effected too. Obraz - Face: During stroke one side of the face (again, depends on which side of the the brain was effected by stroke; Left brain = Right side of the body, Right brain = Left side of the body) literally starts dropping (Facial asymmetry) Minuta - Minute: The moment you see other mentioned signs it to immediately call AMBULANCE.

As soon he got down from the vehicle, he collapsed on the ground !

I'm here because I had a stroke about a month ago. I am extremely lucky that it resolved itself quickly but those first 5-10 minutes was hell. I literally walked through the valley of the shadow of death and made it out alive. I was conscious enough though it all to know I was probably having a stroke. I remember thinking I had just a few more minutes to live. While my wife was on the phone with 911, I put my arms around her neck and sobbed. Over the next 48 hours I made a quick recovery in the ICU but I was profoundly sad. Nobody was able to visit me in the hospital because of COVID19. Around midnight that first night my speech was doing much better and I made some good bye videos to my children in case I didn't make it. My youngest is 4 years old. To be here today with virtually no lasting effects is a miracle. I'm 43 years old.

I have a friend who had a stroke at work. He couldn't talk and was stumbling. They sent him home. He drove to his house, went to sleep. 19 hours later, his mother called. He was mumbling. She called 911. He's completely disabled now. Those assholes at his work sent him home.

My father had a massive stroke back in Dec. 2019, one week before Christmas. He had one in the restroom & laid there for hours. Doctors said if he'd laid there any longer, he would've passed. I would like to thank the surgeons who saved my dad's life. His legs don't work like they use to but he gets around just fine in his walker. God is Great🙏🏾

[@Widdekuu91]

People usually have complications in restrooms, because once they feel nauseous/sick they go there. That's where they then stay and lose conciousness/it gets worse. It's a good thing when people let others know that they don't feel well and are going there, instead of silently leaving, because once you're gone for a few minutes, people might be able to check up on you if you're okay or not. I went to the toilet to vomit once, when I felt unwell. A woman nearby noticed and helped me with the locked (stupid!) door of the restrooms. A while later she walked into the restroom, to find me on the floor half-concious and the next thing I remember, some teacher was sitting next to me. I'll spare you the rest of the story, because the teacher didn't exactly help (kindof harshly told me to get up, joked about my upcoming death and then called me a dramaqueen) but at least I got to sit/lay in the nice lady's office afterwards to get better. I now know it was probably anemia-related problems, made worse by stress. The teacher that taunted me, had just been explaining how 50% of the class would not make it to next year, which was a lie, but since that moment, I'd been feeling more nauseous.

[@wisdomandlove1661]

I wish him a healthy recovery...but I don't think any gods deserve any praise for what happened to him.

[@shqdae]

@@Miyakolover i understand why you think so, but personally me i rather not blame God for the poor circumstances but praise Him for saving the man from what could’ve been. and i think that’s what the original commenter is doing; praising Him for things NOT being worse (like dying from it). that’s because the bad in this world isn’t due to God, so i personally wouldn’t blame Him for it.. i’m just stating my opinion as well.

[@shqdae]

my mom fell intro a stroke as well. she’s not how she used to be but i’m so thankful to God for her being alive. plus i’ve seen God work a lot in our life since she’s fell ill, although things are still very tough. but truly i’m just happy she’s here today regardless of her needing extra care from others.

[@jlopez240gaming7]

My uncle just recently just passed away from a heart attack and the pain is just to much, he was like another father to me, so it’s always important to let your family members know just how much you absolutely adore them and the time you spend with them. I’ll always cherish him until the day we can meet again. I love you Tio, I’ll miss you always.

Sorry for your loss. I hope you can find peace that your uncle is no longer in pain. Days will be hard to go through but you will be able to heal. I am not the best with words but i really wish you well.

I got a stroke when I was 19 and I can totally say that this is 100% accurate. My speech was jittery before having the stroke. When I got the stroke, my jaw dropped and my left side got paralysed. It took me 5-10 mins to get conscious and then I was admitted to the hospital for a few days.

This was an example of someone having a stroke around the age of late 40-50’s. But I was recently reminded that this can happen to anyone of any age. That is truly terrifying.

[@PaulEd999]

I actually spotted my boss having a stroke while we were working in October last year. He'd been stressed, he'd had chest pains a few days prior. My first indication was a very rough sounding voice as if he'd been shouting in a bar all night. After our 90 minute drive to our work site his face had dropped on one side, I phoned his wife to check if she'd noticed anything and subsequently drove him to hospital were he stayed for 2 weeks. He'd had a stroke and heart attack with 48 hours. As corny as it might sound, it was my training as a soldier and my constant first aid refresher courses helped me deal with the situation. He made a full recovery and his wife invited me to dinner😊

[@Psychology_Exposed]

Theres no strong evidence out there that stress caused a stroke, likely a coincidence in this case. Commonly with stress comes a poor diet / other habbits which could maybe cause a disproportionate number of people with stress to have a stroke
