The lingering effects of a stroke can lead to total disability. You may qualify for Social Security disability benefits if your condition meets the criteria under the Social Security Administration's listing of impairments.
Health News reports that according to a new study 1 in 7 strokes (14%) happen while an individual is sleeping. This raises the risk of suffering brain damage since it prevents the opportunity to receive emergency treatment for blood clots.
If a blood clot forms and breaks off, it can then travel to the brain and cause severe damage.
Once symptoms of a stroke begin, the window of time in which treatment can help is just a few hours. So early treatment is crucial and could potentially save a life.
Strokes can be debilitating. They are the 3rd leading cause of death for adults in the United States. Approximately 87% of strokes are ischemic strokes and while most occur in older adults, other risk factors could increase the chance. Some of the risk factors for stroke include high blood pressure and obesity.
