Default Stroke Thread

I had a TIA (Trans Ischemic Attack) about 3 1/2 years ago or 3 years prior to my latest concussion that has caused my PCS issues. At the time I was tested thoroughly by neurologists and cardio-pulmonary specialists without any indication of damage or lasting impression. On the whole it was a very strange and frightening experience.

The results were changes to my diet and exercise patterns and an awareness that TIA sufferers have an increased likelihood of another stroke.

When I had my concussion this go round and during my hospital stay, pretty much all of the same tests were performed as precautions due to my prior history.

Does anyone else have any history of TIA and TBI / Concussion / PCS ?
