| If a stroke is recognized, diagnosed and treated within the first few hours the chances of reversing the effects are much better. If you see a person having
some difficulty in numbness or weakness, sudden confusion, sudden dizziness,
sudden unsteadiness, sudden difficulty hearing, sudden severe headache
or sudden onset of nausea becoming severe, you should ask him or her three
simple questions: If he or she has trouble with
any of these tasks, call 911 immediately and describe the symptoms to
the dispatcher. You could prevent brain damage.
