As LJ says, please get to specialist asap.... I have a family member who gets TIA's, and whille her symtoms usually only last 1/2 an hour - they usually hospitalize her and do complete testing every time they happen.... she takes an aspirin immidiately - and they also call 911 instead of having someone drive her to ER in hopes of getting immediate attention.... she is watched very closely by her doc - has no apparent heart problems, but high cholesterol, so is on a very strict diet, etc.....

I just spoke with her - (I'm adding this) - the only time she showed any symtoms of a bleed were her first TIA (showed in her brian) - which sounds frankly much less serious then your episode - so again, second LJ - I'd let them know about your numbness your getting now and take action quickly.....

Sending good thoughts.....
