Default What is the minimum blood pressure for a TIA?

I am hoping someone can help me. I have had several TIA like episodes although my doctor is sure they are TIA's. The hospital dismissed them because of my bp and because of how long they lasted. Now everything I have read contradicts what I was told by the hospital. My bp was 140 something over 90 something (it was a while ago) and the symptoms resolved with 24hrs. From what I have read the stroke zone begins at 140/90 and a TIA can last anywhere from a few minutes to hours, but resolves in 24.

Does anyone know for sure?

Thanks.
