Cva stroke signs and symptoms
Common Questions and Answers about Cva stroke signs and symptoms
stroke
He has not experienced any facial expression changes and has no obvious signs of CVA/TIA except the numbness. He has mild weakness in the right leg but not to the extent of any changes to his gait. I will check into any family history or possibility of diabetes and do some digging to see what I can find out. Thanks for your help and reassurance.
More than be concerned you need to get her to an emergency room immediately for this type of blood pressure ...she is at a high risk of having a CVA or stroke and that is not a good thing at all....that is a very dangerous blood pressure and it needs to be monitored....i would take her to the E,R, immediately if you are still getting those readings. Do not take chances with her life it is like playing Russian Roulette with a blood pressure that high.............good luck to you both......
And I might be inclined to believe them except for two things. The MRI report does not mention clots and I am continually developing new symptoms.
My initial residuals include all the usual; muscle weakness (73% deficiency) and spasticty on the left side, facial droop, foot drop, restless leg syndrome, vertigo, trouble speaking in full sentences, short term memory loss, trouble swallowing. I went back to work three weeks after my stroke and had made a near full recovery in the first 12 months.
With not wanting to scare you many of the symptoms that you have posted are in line with someone who may be experiencing the symptoms of a stroke or CVA and the high blood pressure could be setting off this chain reaction.
Disease and Condition Overview Stroke, or CVA ( cerebrovascular accident ), is characterized by a sudden loss of consciousness and is often accompanied by partial facial paralysis, slurred speech, and hemiplegia. Due to the sudden onset of the disease, Its muhiple symptoms, and the rapid change in condition, stroke is considered similar to properties of wind.
Clinically, it is important to differentiate between the ischemic and hemorrhagic types of stroke.
This happened about a week ago, as well as several months ago. My father recently suffered a stroke in july on one side of his brain and an older one on the other side. Obviously this type of thing has recently raised a concern for me. My mother also had an issue with a nitro valve. How often should I push to get seen to get an echo?

I am 53 years old, and had a very mild stroke (CVA) 8-30-07. After lots of tests, the neurologist found I had a hole in my heart. I then had the PFO closure procedure done 12-5-07. I thought this would limit my chances for future strokes, plus got me off the coumadin I was taking. However, about 2 weeks after the PFO closure, I had to run a short distance and I noticed my heart beating irregularly. I laid down and it went away in about 3 hours.
It results because the usual tests only view the lumen (inner channel) but it does not show the soft and hard plaque between the inner wall and the outer smooth muscle. Most heart attacks happen when this soft plaque rutures the inner lining and develops clots.
It is not a very good answer to your question, but there can be occlusions without angina, and an occluded vessels is not usually the agent to cause a stroke, heart attack.
Next month I will be three years post subarachnoid hemorrhage and stroke. My entire left side was affected and I spent my first two months in ICU and inpatient rehab relearning how to walk, talk, write and everything else related to everyday living, like getting dressed. Although I am far better than I was three years ago, I'm still recovering; I want to be as close to my pre-stroke self as I can be, if not better.
Had a pregnancy stroke (due to toxemia/hypertension) and seizure when I was 18. No effects from either. It is now 17 years later and I had some dizziness so I had an MRI done in March 2008.
The findings from the MRI at age 18 (1992):
lateral ventricles are slightly large for someone at this age
2 to 2.5 cm wedge shaped area of low density involving the right superolateral frontal cortex consistent with an infarct there.
She said that the day she had a stroke, she was admitted in the ICU and had a CVD bleed. What does that mean? Thanks you.
And i was also wondering if what type of stroke she had because i don't have her records. She said she spent 2 days in the ICU, 1 month at the hospita, has left side paralysis and no peripheral vision on the left eye. Now she still has no peripheral vision on the left eye and still has weakness on the left side of her body. Thank you for your help.
