5. Difficulty With Numbers and Words
A patient suffering from a stroke might struggle to speak partly because they have lost full control over their mouth. But another reason might be that they simply are having difficulty thinking of the next thing to say.
This can also manifest itself in other ways. Writing might be more difficult for example and it might even become more difficult to use the telephone. This of course can be a big problem if you are alone having a stroke and you need to call for help.
The frustrating part is that you might also be able to think normally, which can be highly frustrating.
