my one was a little different since it caused by avm -arteriovenous malformation, but did have a type stroke intracerebral haematoma in right trigone area with intraventricular haemorrhage is what report stated


warning signs can also include alongside ones you mentioned are abnormal headache That gets progressively worse Which is more painful in one side of the head it can also be pressure in either centre of head or at one side



been unable to balance Double vision or Blurred vision Intolerance to light and sounds low grade fever ineffective pain medication And consent throwing up And falling unconscious Also possible High Bp if you have hypertension as the cause


Things to keep check on if worried of getting stroke is Blood Pressure hypertensive emergency can be the cause for some strokes It says bp should be around 90 and under 120


also would check pulse pressure Subtract the diastolic (bottom number from the top systolic This should be around 40 - 60 Mine was 16 after stroke now around 31 after 3 Months


also would check if possible oxygen and heart rate i will use my one as a reference my heart rate 100 - 175 sitting and oxygen (sp02) 95 - 70 the normal range is 95 if you have say copd it can be lower around 92-88 heart rate should be in healthy people 60 to 100 if higher its known conditions like tachycardia or supraventricular tachycardia if below 60 is bradycardia


lastly if you suspect other conditions like heart disease or been diabetic keep check on that to to lower risk of stroke.



one thing you can check if suspect heart condition is listening to heart before stroke i had a murmur that sounded like aortic stenosis you should also check temperature to check your blood circulation normal is around 98.6f? medical emergency is 95.0 also if you get other symptoms like breathlessness dizziness fatigue fast Heart rate (worse on laying down to ring for help) not saying to self digonisis just that if its a late night and You suddenly get unwell


That just doing theys basics checks and writing it down can give you idea on your health and confidence in ringing for ambulance or medical advisory dont be like me and delay if you think its either a stroke aneurysm or heart attack quickly Get help


reason i bring up oxygen is that stroke due to blood pressure is one thing that can be checked at home and could hopefully predict a stroke or other health problem before it occurs so you given more time to get checked and hopefully medicated which should lower your chance on getting a stroke
