 |  | I have a question. Is hyperthermia heat stroke, or is it heat exhaustion, and heat stroke. I think it's both but i'm not positive.  |
Hyperthermia is just general overheating. Heat illness basically. Heat stroke and heat exhaustion fall under the category of heat illness. 
If you want to get technical, I can give you the difference between the two.

I know the difference between the two, I was just curious if they both fit under the hyperthermia category.
