(the hemorrhagic kind) where blood which collects inside the brain compresses it... quite different from the symptoms you describe...Mostly what people should look out for is...<ul> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">sudden numbness/weakness of face arms or legs specially if ony on one side of the body</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">sudden severe headache</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">sudden trouble seeing with one or both eyes</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">sudden onset trouble in walking and dizziness</li> </ul>having more than one of the above signs is fairly significant and is a medical emergency. First aid you kan do is keep the patient lying on a side with the airway patent (open) while quickly taking him/her to a hospital.Please i'm not doing this to demean you in any way but to put the true facts out there in correct format.</blockquote>
