The likelihood of stroke rises by 72% between 6 and 9 a.m., while the likelihood of a heart attack increases by 40% between 6 a.m. and noon. This is driven by morning changes, including increases in blood pressure and cortisol, and a greater tendency for platelets to clump together. Sudden signs of stroke include loss of balance or vision problems, as well as facial drooping, arm weakness, and difficulty speaking. The American Stroke Association recommends calling emergency services immediately if these symptoms appear. Doctors use imaging and the time the patient was last known to be symptom-free to determine treatment. For some patients, the clot can be removed mechanically up to 24 hours after the stroke begins, while clot-busting medication is usually given within four and a half hours.
