7 Stroke Symptoms One Month Before It Happens

7. A Sudden Change in Sensory Perception

These sensory changes can pop up in a few different ways. Maybe you're experiencing a kind of numbness that's got you wondering, "What's up with that?"

What’s really going on here is your brain might be having a tough time processing the sensory info it’s getting, which could be down to not enough blood getting to the right spots or maybe some early damage in the parts of your brain that handle all those senses.

6. Sudden Severe Headache with No Known Cause

This headache is sudden, severe, and without an ounce of mercy. It's like your brain's own alarm system going off, loud and clear.

Here's the deal with this headache: it could signal something serious, like a hemorrhagic stroke, where a blood vessel in your brain says, 'I quit,' and bursts. This leads to bleeding inside your brain, causing pressure to build up fast.

5. Slurred Speech or Difficulty Speaking

Your thoughts are clear as day in your mind, but what comes out of your mouth is all jumbled up or slurred. But more than that, it's a huge red flag waving at you, indicating something might be off in your brain.

When speech gets slurred or it suddenly feels like a Herculean effort to string a sentence together, it's often because the brain is having a hard time controlling the muscles that make all our chatting possible.

4. Unexplained Dizziness or Loss of Balance

Sudden dizziness or feeling like you're about to tip over isn't something to just laugh off—it's your brain waving a big red flag, telling you something's not quite right.

The real issue with this dizziness or feeling wobbly isn't just about the immediate weirdness of it all. It's demonstrating that the brain is struggling with some pretty basic tasks, and that's a call to action.

3. Weakness or Numbness on One Side of the Body

Maybe it's your face that's suddenly slack on one side, making your smile lopsided, or perhaps one arm or leg feels like it's been filled with sand.

This isn't just a weird body quirk—it's a red alert from your brain, signaling something's definitely not right.

2. Trouble with Vision in One or Both Eyes

Sudden trouble with your sight—be it everything going blurry, seeing double, or even parts of your vision checking out for a bit—isn't just an ordinary eye hiccup.

Here's what's happening behind the scenes: parts of your brain that deal with making sense of what you see might not be getting enough blood. This glitch in the supply line can mess with your vision in all sorts of ways, depending on which brain area is taking the hit.

1. Sudden Confusion or Difficulty Understanding Speech

This isn't just a brief lapse—it's a significant alert from your brain signaling potential trouble.

This issue can throw a wrench in your ability to comprehend others or express yourself clearly. We're not talking about the gradual memory slips that come with age; stroke-related confusion or speech issues drop in suddenly, highlighting the immediacy of the situation.

I AM 70 YEARS OLD, LIVE IN THE U.K. AND I LIVE ALONE. EVEN IF I COULD PHONE AN AMBULANCE WHEN STROKE SYMPTOMS APPEAR - BY THE TIME AN AMBULANCE ACTUALLY TURNED UP [SOME HOURS LATER] I WOULD BE STONE-COLD DEAD. BUT TO RISHI SUNAK AND THE MINISTER FOR HEALTH I WOULD JUST BE JUST ANOTHER STATISTIC OF THE AMBULANCE SERVICE NEEDING MORE TRAINING [OR WHAT-EVER POLITICAL EXCUSES WAS BEING USED AT THAT TIME].

This video's value is compromised by worthless, time-consuming filler verbiage, likely done just to make the video longer, and that means fewer viewers will bother to sit through the whole thing.

If only doctors knew this! I was 71 yo when I started having balance problems when walking. I reported to the emergency dept of a major teaching hospital (Sir Charles Gairdner, Perth, Australia) and the doctor who attended me diagnosed vertigo and referred me to an external "balance and dizziness clinic" where they taught me the Epley Maneuvre for a particular type of vertigo. This was a wrong diagnosis and treatment. A few days later I suffered a stroke which disabled me for life and caused me to lose my job. Vertigo is one of the 7 stroke symptoms explained in this video and surely should have been diagnosed correctly by the doctor, especially considering my age.

Long before my stroke, I had an unusual neck pain like a stiff neck, and I had fairy tight feeling of a sensation in the one side of the brain that was later to be the part that contained the stroke. A combination of these two made me think I was going to have a stroke and I thought I probably would have one, but I didn’t know what to do since all of the blood pressure medication I was on, was making me sick. I survived a medium sized cerebral hemorrhage. I have no outstanding problems after.

I'm 55 & 5 yrs ago I had a T.I.A. which lasted for 2 days as my so called friend decided that she would rather get drunk & at the last moment possible she decided to call an ambulance. I've got permanent right sided weakness & still have problems with my speech. What this video did to me was make me realise that I have most of these warning signs. Thanks for sharing your video with me.😊🇦🇺

What about epilepsy? Many of the symptoms you mention are quite typical for sensations leading up to a seizure.

[michaeldalsky]

I had none of these before my stroke and they still don’t know why I had it.vital signs were good, they say 35 percent of people never now

[glizta]

I have dysautonomia and vestibular migraines so I have all of these symptoms all of the time

Thank you for such an informative video.❤

Great info but so hard to watch, dragged out and repetitive.

You can tell them your symptoms when you check into ER, and you still sit in the waiting room for maybe hours before they see you.

Our 74 yr old lady neighbor stopped her diabetes meds because of negative comments she has read on the internet, just boiled and took some herbal leaves, then got a major stroke.

My brother had a massive stroke at 59, he’s in a wheelchair for life, Aphasia too!

[lesleyholmes]

I have the symtoms and would love to talk to my Dr however there is no point. I had a heart attack and told my Dr the afternoon before it happened but he waved me off. The following morning I had a heart attack and called an ambulance. They said there was nothing wrong but took me to hospital. The Dr in the emergency department said there was nothing wrong but took bloods and wired me for an ecg. Half an hour later he came back and said "You are having a heart attack" No shit Sherlock. Major damage to my heart. Had the warnings for a stroke for a few days now. Accept it and say goodbye while I can still speak. 👋

Ninety-nine percent of doctors wouldn’t take you seriously and would tell you that you are just under stress. Then they’d tell you to stop watching You Tube videos and self diagnosing. After your stroke, you won’t be able to find any record of your pre-stroke visit to their office. Good luck to you.

had all that and the MD's couldn't find anything, they thought i was nut's, so for me going to a doctor didn't help me at all here on the Oregon coast

[patriciasalyers]

you can;t get on the line with your doctor

Though l agree that the subtle signs that are discussed are realistic possibilities of a stroke, they are also common in many other illnesses. Especially the first few. The latter few are obvious ones that are well known. Only those who are in denial would ignore them.
Unless you have the profile of a typical stroke victim, looking out for, and worrying about every subtle sign will only serve to make one paranoid.

It happens to a week ago my friend kept saying ok ok and when I saw this person thought the person was having a stroke I was stupid not to call husband to meet me and take her to Emergency room should have drove her to her home. I was scared that this person could cause an accident
