Why These Warning Signs Matter So Much
A stroke is often described as sudden, and in many cases, it truly does happen quickly and without much notice. But research shows that in some cases, especially when a person experiences a mini-stroke (also called a transient ischemic attack, or TIA), the body can send early warning signals in the days or weeks leading up to a more serious event.
A TIA happens when blood flow to part of the brain is temporarily blocked, causing stroke-like symptoms that usually resolve within minutes
