Hi my name is Ray and I am 56 yrs old. I was walking up my steps when suddenly I must have blacked out, and went back wards down 12 steps. I went to the Hospital by ambulance they did MRI, Xrasy and cat scan. I had facial druping on the left side of my face. Problems formulating my words and getting them out. The final dignose was a TIA. I am still experensing dizzness when I tilt my head up and when I lay down. And just feel like I am in a fog.
Hi, Thank you for posting your query. Your symptoms are indeed suggestive of TIA (minor brain stroke). Treatment would consist of using antiplatelet agents such as aspirin and statins. In addition, the risk factors for TIA should be screened for and treated if present. These include blood sugar, cholesterol, high BP and homocysteine. Please get back if you require any additional information. Best wishes, Chat Doctor. Ly/
