Stroke Risk Symptoms are Not Always Present

As we get older, we may become increasingly concerned about facing a stroke at some point in the future. This concern can become even more intense if we have a family history of stroke or stroke risk.

If you are concerned about having a stroke, you may wonder: what are common stroke risk symptoms? The answer is not one you may want to hear: stroke risk symptoms are not always present.

There are many potential causes of stroke, one of which is carotid artery blockage. Your carotid arteries are found in your neck and they supply blood to your brain. As we age, these arteries can become lined with plaque. If excessive plaque buildup occurs, a piece of the plaque can break off and float up into the brain, cloggin smaller vessels found there. This is one type of stroke that can occur.

Unfortunately, it is often impossible to feel the blockage that can occur in your carotid arteries. This is one very common type of stroke risk that cannot easily be detected without undergoing a preventive screening.

Broken Crock

Crockpots always have the tendency to crack. When I read slow cooker reviews, this is the first thing that immediately casts a negative impression of the product in my mind. Imagine wasting close to a hundred bucks on a slow cooker only to find it cracked after a couple of uses! I can still be appeased if I get a free replacement quickly, but if I do not, I am left feeling cheated of the ‘crackpot’ purchase. I had this experience before and that is why I am now very careful whenever I shop for kitchen appliances, especially slow cookers, mixers, and bread machines.

Remove That Carpet for a New Look

When we put the deck in a few years ago, we decided to cover it with outdoor carpet.  As time went by, the carpet got worn down and tears started to appear. We decided to remove it completely, which turned out to be a great idea! It took about an hour to pull it up, and another to clean up the glue. There wasn’t much more deck restoration needed, as the carpet provided protection over the years. We finished with a little sealant and stain. Maybe next year we will bite the bullet and put more on it, but till then we’re going to enjoy our “new” deck.
