Health expert says 'each stroke looks different' but here are the 8 most common symptoms


A stroke can also cause somebody to slur their speech or to suddenly find it difficult to find the right words.

These three signs of stroke can best be remembered with the FAST test.

F- facial weakness: can the person smile? Has their mouth or eye drooped?

A – arm weakness: can the person raise both arms?

S – speech problems: can the person speak clearly and understand what you say?

T – time to call 999 immediately if you notice any of these signs.

There is another sign to be wary of – a sudden onset of blurred, double vision, or losing vision in one (or both) eyes.
