What are the symptoms as a mild stroke?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Think "FAST": The acronym "fast" summarizes what to look for and what do if you think someone is having a stroke: 1)face-ask the person to smile. Does one side of the face droop? 2) arms-ask the person to raise both arms. Does one arm drift downward? 3) speech-ask the person to repeat a simple phrase. Is their speech slurred or strange? 4) time-if you observe any of these signs, call 9-1-1 immediately.
