[gotcha] Advising a user to monitor stroke-like symptoms if they resolve on their own within minutes

Treat any sudden stroke-like symptoms \(facial droop, arm weakness, speech difficulty\) as a medical emergency requiring immediate ambulance dispatch, even if they resolve quickly.

Journey Context:
Agents might triage a Transient Ischemic Attack \(TIA\) as 'low urgency' if symptoms disappear, treating it like a migraine or fatigue. TIAs are critical warning signs; up to 1 in 3 TIA patients will have a major stroke. The 'resolution' is the trap—it lulls the user and agent into a false sense of security.
