Can Stress Cause A Stroke?
I just got diagnosed as ADHD and I am 65. The tests show I am 100% on verbal for my age group. I have always been perceived as very smart and was a public speaker on sales for many years. But the tests show that I am in the bottom 2% on memory. I had a minor stroke in Jan. and got to the ER quickly. I lost my business several years ago and have been unable to go on. I am also broke and terrified of my future. Could this memory and stress have caused my stroke?
