Stroke is often thought of as something that happens later in life — but more young adults are experiencing strokes, and many don't recognize the warning signs until it's too late.In this episode of Baptist Health Talk, host Sandra Peebles speaks with Dr. Felipe De Los Rios La Rosa, cerebrovascular neurologist and director of the stroke program at Baptist Health Miami Neuroscience Institute, about why stroke risk is rising among younger adults and what people can do to protect themselves.You'll learn:• Why strokes are becoming more common in adults under 55 • How recreational drug use, alcohol, vaping and marijuana may affect stroke risk • Why being young, active or healthy does not make you immune • The FAST warning signs everyone should know • What a TIA or “mini stroke” really means • Why calling 911 quickly can make a major difference • Practical steps that may help lower your stroke riskDr. De Los Rios also explains why stroke symptoms can be missed in younger people, how sudden changes in speech, vision, balance or strength should never be ignored, and why prevention should start earlier than many people think.

May is Stroke Awareness Month. Strokes can happen to anyone at any age. When I had a stroke in 1972 at age 2, that wasn't the case. Back then, strokes happened to people 65 years and older who were unhealthy: obese, smoker, drinker, and rarely exercised.My guest, Lori Vober, is also a stroke survivor. Her hemorrhagic stroke happened when she was twenty-nine years old. Thankfully, people were at the church at that day and got Lori help quickly. Lori shares her story in her book: Choices: When You Are Faced with a Challenge, What Choice Will You Make? When we face challenges that significantly impact our lives, Lori believes we must trust that God has a bigger and better plan.Notable quotes by Lori Vober:·         “We can get stuck in bitter, or we can grow better through our experiences.”·         “I am thankful I have the mindset and perseverance to be able to do all I can do.”·         “Although I can't control my circumstances, I can control my attitude and my faith.”Lori's fight verse is 1 Thessalonians 5:16-18, which reads, “Rejoice always; pray continually; give thanks in all circumstances for this is God's will for you in Christ Jesus.” Connect with Lori Vober at https://lorivober.com/On Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/lori.voberOn Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/lorilonghorn99/ Stroke awareness facts: ·         Stroke is the fifth leading cause of death in the US and a leading cause of severe disability. ·         The two major types of strokes are hemorrhagic, which occurs when a weakened blood vessel ruptures, and ischemic, which occurs when a clot blocks a blood vessel and cuts off blood flow. ·         Nearly two million brain cells die each minute a stroke is untreated. ·         About 55,000 more women than men have a stroke each year.·         In the US, 1 in 5 women will have a stroke.·         Stroke kills twice as many African Americans as Caucasians.·         80% of strokes are preventable. ·         Know the anacronym FAST: F = droopy face, A = arm or leg numb, S = slurred speech, T = time.  Call 9-1-1 fast!

To coincide with National Stroke Awareness Month, on today's episode of FOX Rehabilitation's Live Better Longer podcast, we are joined by Dr. J Mocco, MD, cerebrovascular and endovascular neurosurgeon and Senior System Vice Chair in the Department of Neurosurgery at Mount Sinai in New York City. Dr. Mocco discusses what causes a stroke, how to treat one, and the most effective ways of prevention. For someone who does suffer a stroke, it is crucial to act fast and to get them to a hospital that is properly equipped to treat a stroke patient. Dr. Mocco explains why it is necessary to call an ambulance, instead of trying to rush a stroke victim to the hospital yourself. He also talks about the importance of looking out for signs of a possible stroke, which includes arm weakness, facial drooping, and difficulty with speech. He advises that if you or anyone you know experiences any of these symptoms to seek medical help immediately.
