Don't know about yours spacific question, but after my heart surgery 29 years ago, I have taken Warfarin to fight against the big clots and the low dose, 81mg aspirin for the little ones. One a day. Might help?

walleyed hasn't had any big or little stokes yet but since I was diagnosed
with Atrial Fibrillation they've had me juiced up with Zarelto and 81M aspirin.
So far, so good.

About ten year ago I get a call from my Mama saying she was going to the hospital so I dropped what I was doing and headed there. They did test on her, I spent the night with her and truthfully was scared, she looked rough. Next day the Dr came in and said she was dehydrated and got that fixed. Then he said that in the testing they did they discovered she had a bunch of something that would take two men, a women and two small children to pronounce lol. We said what the world is that, he broke it down to mini strokes. She never knew she had them. Cancer got Mama, those strokes never effected her but showed up on some kind of test.
I wonder if tap dancers walk into a room, look at the floor, and think, I'd tap that. I wonder about things.....

My wife just went through her second mini stroke.From what we were told,they are a warning that a real stroke may take place. She wore a heart monitor for 48 hours,started an aspirin regimen and anRX to lower her cholesterol.She goes in for an ultra sound of he heart tomorrow. These actions are all to make sure she does',nt have a real stroke. Tom

I have read that mini strokes can cause dementia. So try not to have them!
My fear of moving stairs is escalating!

I'v had three of them over the past 14 years. No rhyme or reason, always about 8 in the morning. I've had a bunch of tests, nothing determined, checked carotid arteries, blood sugar, etc.. They told me the next time have somebody bring me in asap so they can hook me up to see what my brain is doing. Not too worried about it, although the second one took a few days to get back to 100 percent.
The last one came on right after I started a 1200 mile road trip from the Seattle area to San Diego. I realized what was happening about 30 minutes into the trip. I had a deadline to meet so I powered through it, probably not the smartest thing to do, luckily it was a Sunday morning and light traffic. I started to pull out of in by Portland and was pretty much back to normal by Salem. I really shouldn't have been driving though.
