Cerebral strokes can be either ischemic or hemorrhagic. Ischemic is the formation of a clot that has either formed in the blood vessel of the brain known as thrombosis or that has moved from another part of the body to the neck or brain, which is called an embolism. A quick response time is essential to recovery from a stroke. Often, brain tissue can be preserved if treatment begins within 3 hours of a stroke.
Dizziness
A loss of balance and sensation of dizziness can be a symptom of a cerebral stroke.
Loss of Vision
A loss of vision, often in one eye, is a sign of a cerebral stroke. Partial vision loss or dimness is also possible.
Numbness
A numb feeling of arms, legs, or face on one side of the body can be an indicator of a cerebral stroke.
Weakness
Weakness in an arm, leg or facial muscles located on only one side of the body is a symptom of a cerebral stroke.
Loss of Speech
If you experience difficulty speaking or understanding speech, or cannot speak, you may be suffering from a cerebral stroke.
