What is worse a Stroke or a Heart Attack?

Answer 1

I would say a heart attack is worse because it targets the heart, the second most important thing needed for life. There are some cases that people actually survive stokes. But i am not sure about heart attacks.

I would say both are dangerous because people survive heart attacks also, including some of my friends. if you survive a stroke, you most likely have serious brain damage, but for a heart attack, your heart is rarely damaged.

Answer 2

It would be much more accurate to observe that a stroke is similar to a heart attack, rather than to say that these are the same thing. Both are caused by an interruption in the blood supply to a vital organ, and both can be caused by blood clots inside blood vessels.

Answer 3

Both are blockages in the arteries that supply oxygen and nutrients to the tissues

Answer 4

No a stroke is a rupture in the brain.
