Episode Description

New research reveals Australian women face significantly higher rates of misdiagnosis for strokes, with a 25% greater chance of having symptoms mistaken for migraines or stress in emergency departments. Women often experience different stroke symptoms than men, including catastrophic headaches and vomiting rather than the classic facial drop and slurred speech. Australian research from Queensland has also found that bedroom temperatures above 24 degrees Celsius can put additional stress on the heart in people over 65, potentially increasing risks of high blood pressure and strokes.
