A warning has been issued in order to increase awareness of 'tell-tale' signs of a stroke that do not feature on the FAST list.
The commonly known acronym FAST - facial weakness, arm weakness, speech problems, time to call 999 - is often used when looking for the signs of a stroke. But there are a number of lesser known signs to look out for, experts say.
One in seven stroke sufferers do not experience the FAST symptoms, with a number of additional and dangerous signs often occurring. These symptoms include difficulty swallowing and a loss of sight in one or both eyes, reports the Mirror.
