Neurologist Steven O'Donnell, MD, Stroke Program Medical Director at the Eastside Neuroscience Institute, joined New Day Northwest's Amity Addrisi to discuss the causes, warning signs and symptoms of stroke. 

From the story: "Things like high cholesterol, high blood pressure, smoking and diabetes are some of the leading causes of stroke," cautioned Dr. O'Donnell. "To prevent stroke, you want to have a healthy lifestyle, including regular exercise, having a good diet, controlling your blood pressure and regular check-ins with your doctor."
