Has anyone else here had a stroke, or TIA's? Has it left you with any permanent problems to deal with, or are you doing okay now?

Teri :)

i have heard ot them it can be caused by white matter by the white matter area of the front lobe of the brain. i think i have had at least one main stroke by it and several near straight up strokes . but they are transient so they dont cause long term damage. but they are warning of potetial for u to have one. its a myrtery stil to me... i feel like the mystery diagnosos patient on tv. scool
