Pre-symptoms of brainstem hemorrhage
Brainstem hemorrhage is extremely dangerous, and once a massive hemorrhage occurs, the patient can quickly lose consciousness and generally there are no effective emergency measures available. The patient will quickly die due to the involvement of the centers controlling heartbeat and breathing. The early symptoms of brainstem hemorrhage are not particularly obvious, but a careful medical history may reveal that patients often experience excessive fatigue, stress, emotional agitation, and poor sleep before the hemorrhage. Patients may show early signs such as dizziness, blurred vision, double vision, limb weakness, and slurred speech. If a patient has very high blood pressure and exhibits these early symptoms, especially if there is discomfort in the neck and upper back area, it is crucial to be highly vigilant and seek immediate medical attention. The prognosis for brainstem hemorrhage is very poor, thus it is essential to focus on preventive measures and properly control blood pressure.
