STROKE
from UpToDate

What is a stroke? — Stroke is the term doctors use when a part of the brain is damaged because of a problem with blood flow. Strokes can happen when:
●
An artery going to the brain gets clogged or closes off, and part of the brain goes without blood for too long
●
An artery breaks open and starts bleeding into or around the brain

How do strokes affect people? — The effects of a stroke depend on a lot of things, including:
●
Which part and how much of the brain is affected
●
How quickly the stroke is treated

Some people who have a stroke have no lasting effects. Others lose important brain functions. For example, some people become partly paralyzed or unable to speak. Stroke is one of the leading causes of death and disability in the world.
How can you tell if someone is having a stroke? — There is an easy way to remember the signs of a stroke. Just think of the word "FAST". Each letter in the word stands for one of the things you should watch for:
●
Face – Does the person's face look uneven or droop on one side?

●
Arm – Does the person have weakness or numbness in one or both arms? Does one arm drift down if the person tries to hold both arms out?

●
Speech – Is the person having trouble speaking? Does his or her speech sound strange?

●
Time – If you notice any of these stroke signs, call for an ambulance or go to the nearest hospital FAST! You need to act FAST. The sooner treatment begins, the better the chances of recovery.

How are strokes treated? — The right treatment depends on what kind of stroke you are having. You need to get to the hospital very quickly to figure this out.
People whose strokes are caused by clogged arteries can:
●
Get treatments that help reopen clogged arteries. These treatments can help you recover from the stroke.

●
Get medicines that prevent new blood clots. These medicines also help prevent future strokes.

People whose strokes are caused by bleeding can:
●
Have treatments that reduce the damage caused by bleeding in or around the brain

●
Stop taking medicines that increase bleeding, or take a lower dose

●
Have surgery to repair the artery or stop the bleeding (this is not always possible to do)

Can strokes be prevented? — Many strokes can be prevented, though not all. You can greatly lower your chance of having a stroke by:
●
Taking your medicines exactly as directed. Medicines that are especially important in preventing strokes include:

•
Blood pressure medicines

•
Medicines called statins, which lower cholesterol

•
Medicines to prevent blood clots, such aspirin or blood thinners

•
Medicines that help to keep your blood sugar as close to normal as possible (if you have diabetes)

●
Making lifestyle changes:

•
Stop smoking, if you smoke

•
Get regular exercise (if your doctor says it's safe) for at least 30 minutes a day on most days of the week

•
Lose weight, if you are overweight

•
Eat a diet rich in fruits, vegetables, and low-fat dairy products, and low in meats, sweets, and refined grains (such as white bread or white rice)

•
Eat less salt (sodium)

•
Limit the amount of alcohol you drink

-
If you are a woman, do not drink more than 1 drink a day

-
If you are a man, do not drink more than 2 drinks a day

Another way to prevent strokes is to have surgery to reopen clogged arteries in the neck. This surgery is appropriate for only a small group of people.
What is a "TIA"? — A TIA is like a stroke, but it does not damage the brain. TIAs happen when an artery in the brain gets clogged or closes off and then reopens on its own. This can happen if a blood clot forms and then moves away or dissolves. TIA stands for "transient ischemic attack."
Even though TIAs do not cause lasting symptoms, they are serious. If you have a TIA, you are at high risk of having a stroke. It's important that you see a doctor and take steps to prevent that from happening. Do not ignore the symptoms of a stroke even if they go away!

Huwag Uminom Ng Gamot Sa Kirot Ng Pang-matagalan
(Bihira lang po inumin at huwag lalampas ng 1 linggo)

Payo ni Dr Willie Ong (P**i Share po)

May babala po ako tungkol sa matagalang pag-inom ng gamot sa kirot. Ayon sa pagsusuri, puwede itong magdulot ng sakit sa bato (kidneys) at umabot sa dialysis. Puwede din ito magdulot ng ulcer at paghapdi ng tiyan.

Marami na akong nakitang pasyenteng nag-dialysis o nasira ang kidneys dahil matagal na silang uminom ng gamot sa kirot. Hindi nila napansin na ilang buwan na pala sila umiinom ng pain medicines. Dapat ay bihira mo lang itong gamitin at huwag lalampas sa 1 linggo.

Ang ehemplo ng mga gamot sa kirot ay ang (generic name) mefenamic acid, diclofenac, ibuprofen, naproxen, celecoxib at etoricoxib.

Ang mga gamot sa kirot ay tinatakpan lang ang sakit na iyong nararamdaman. Pero nananatili pa rin ang pamamaga at diprensya sa katawan. Hindi panlunas itong mga gamot kundi panandaliang ginhawa lamang.

Tandaan: Para malunasan ang iyong sakit, kailangan mahanap ang dahilan nito. Kumonsulta sa doktor para mabigyan ng tamang solusyon.

Sakit sa Katawan: Anong Gagawin?

Para sa may arthritis, sumubok ng ibang paraan para mawala ang kirot, tulad ng hot o cold compress. Puwede din lagyan ng pamahid na langis.
Para sa masakit ang katawan, subukan ang masahe at hot compress. Mas ligtas ang mga pamahid sa balat (gel) kumpara sa mga tableta na iniinom.
Para sa masakit ang ulo, puwede i-masahe ang ulo at sentido para mabawasan ang sakit ng ulo. Kumonsulta muna sa inyong doktor bago uminom nitong mga gamot.
Ang mas ligtas na gamot ay ang paracetamol tablets o syrup. Pero hindi rin ito puwede araw-arawin dahil may epekto naman sa atay.

Sana po ma-i-share ninyo itong post para makatulong sa ating kababayan at maka-ligtas ng ilang buhay. Marami ang hindi nakakaalam na may masamang epekto na pala ang gamot sa kirot sa kanilang katawan.
Okay lang ang gamot na maintenance sa high blood at sa diabetes. Ligtas po ito. Ituloy ninyo ang pag-inom nito.
Mula sa isang nagmamalasakit lang po. - Doc Willie
