If you experience sudden confusion, struggle to speak clearly, or cannot remember simple things without a clear reason, it could be an early symptom of a stroke. This happens when blood flow to the parts of the brain that control language, memory, and reasoning is disrupted. You might notice difficulty finding the right words, understanding what others are saying, or recalling familiar information. These symptoms may appear quickly and sometimes come and go, but they should never be mistaken for simple forgetfulness.
