## Resource

New research reveals a startling link: cancer diagnosis nearly doubles your stroke risk within the first year, with lung and pancreatic cancers posing even greater danger—up to four and six times higher, respectively. The spike is most intense in the first three months, suggesting a critical window for vascular health. Scientists believe cancer may alter blood clotting and inflammation, making clots more likely. Early-stage cancers like breast and prostate don’t carry this heightened risk, but metastatic disease dramatically increases stroke likelihood. Awareness and swift action are vital—especially for high-risk patients—in the crucial months after diagnosis. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
