Other signs to look for
FAST is a quick, easy tool to remember. It can help you look for the most obvious signs of a stroke and get the help someone needs. However, not everyone shows the same exact signs.
In addition to the above signs, you may want to look for the following:
- dizziness
- headaches
- appearing unbalanced/having trouble with coordination
- struggling to see with blurred or double vision
- signs of confusion, like having trouble understanding you and those around them
Having awareness and understanding about what to look for can be what makes the difference in a person’s life. Act FAST and seek immediate care when noticing the signs of a stroke.
