difficulty, vision changes, severe balance problems, or another possible stroke symptom:
1. **Call emergency medical services immediately.**
2. **Note the exact time the symptoms began or when the person was last known to be well.**
3. **Do not wait to see whether symptoms disappear.**
4. **Do not give food, drink, or medication unless instructed by medical professionals.**
5. **Keep the person safe while waiting for emergency help.**
Calling emergency services rather than driving yourself can allow treatment and hospital preparation to begin sooner.
## The Bottom Line
Stroke does not reliably provide a one-month warning.
Some people experience a TIA before
