Beyond F.A.S.T. – Other Symptoms You Should Know

Sometimes a stroke happens gradually, but you’re likely to have one or more sudden symptoms like these:

    • Numbness or weakness in your face, arm, or leg, especially on one side
    • Confusion or trouble understanding other people
    • Difficulty speaking
    • Trouble seeing with one or both eyes
    • Problems walking or staying balanced or coordinated
  • Dizziness
  • Severe headache that comes on for no reason

If you have these symptoms, call 112 even if you’re not sure you’re having a stroke.
