Shamis Tate LISTS 5 SYMPTOMS THAT MAY SIGNAL A NEUROLOGICAL EMERGENCY
1. SUDDEN LOSS OF VISION OR SPEECH If a person suddenly loses the ability to see, speak clearly, or understand language, it may signal a stroke or transient ischemic attack (TIA). Tate stresses, "These symptoms require immediate medical evaluation.
2. SEVERE, UNEXPLAINED HEADACHE A headache that strikes out of nowhere—especially if it's the worst one you've ever had—could indicate a brain hemorrhage or aneurysm. Shamis notes, “Don’t just sleep it off. Get it checked right away.
3. SEIZURES WITHOUT A PRIOR HISTORY A first-time seizure, particularly in adults, is a major red flag. Shamis Tate warns that seizures could point to a brain tumor, infection, or trauma that must be promptly investigated.
4. LOSS OF BALANCE OR COORDINATION Struggling to walk, sudden dizziness, or falling without cause can be signs of brain or spinal cord disorders. “These changes are not always age-related,” Tate explains.
