He wasn’t slurring his speech. He wasn’t paralyzed. He wasn’t even that confused. But something wasn’t right—and that’s what made this call dangerous.

In this Radio Report episode, we break down a real listener-submitted call involving a patient with subtle neurological changes that didn’t initially fit the “classic” stroke picture.
