My 82 year old mother recently had a TIA,she has been put on Clopidogrel and had a Holter test and booked for a echo exam. Over the last 18 months 2 years she has started to suffer short term memory loss and at the same time extreme fatigue,she's gone from getting up at a normal time and wash dress etc to me having to get her up in the afternoon and not having any urgency to get washed ,dressed and go out like she used to do. Could all these symptoms be down to the carotid being narrowed . The CT SCAN at her TIA. Diagnosis mentioned plague in the Carotid ! Any expertise view appreciated...am here in London where it's taking an age to get a diagnosis on the NHS ! Thanks

This was great, been searching for "removing plaque from arteries" for a while now, and I think this has helped. You ever tried - Nanarter Harloffe Smasher - (Have a quick look on google cant remember the place now )? It is a good one off guide for learning how to reduce your cholesterol level without the headache. Ive heard some pretty good things about it and my mate got cool results with it.

A few days ago, my mom suffered a TIA (mini stroke) and was diagnosed with vertebral artery stenosis. When the TIA happened she couldn’t feel her right arm or leg. The doctor has prescribed medication to lower cholesterol levels and prevent blood clots. Aside from this she has high blood pressure and takes medication for it. After the TIA she is still experiencing some numbness and tingling sensations on her leg when she’s standing or walking for a while. Would love to get your guidance to help treat this condition. Hope to hear from you soon 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽

That was an excellent video and easy to understand how it works. I have recently had two TIA'S and unfortunately an ischemic stroke. However my neurologist don't feel I should have the operation instead wants me to continue medication I'm at the point that I want to find someone that's highly qualified and confident on his or her skill because I don't want to have another stroke and I end up a vegetable or dead. Any recommendations would help. Thanks

Priyageeth K S hello please can you advise me i need your expert help . I am experincing weakness in all four limbs but mainly my right side . Dizzness and headaches. Lots of tightening in my neck area i think the cartroid. I am abke to alleviate some of the symptoms by turning my head to one side . My hr is normally 60 to 65 bpm . But now its 95 to 150 all the time . If i straighten my head my right hip gives way and immediately my limbs go weak could it be blood vessels in my spine or chest . Im getting pain everywear in my veins with straight head posture . Please help i think iv torn or blocked something . But i dont think its obviouse . Any ideas would be very very much appreciated. I had pain in my back about a year ago but i had mri of spine and although i have some degenerative problems i have been told by two spinal surgeons my biluldges dont require surgery . Its been suggested to me its a vascular issue . What can i do . Whats the best scan should i go to er . Thank you

I was getting a heavy throbbing and sometimes a numb feeling to the right side of my face. I was sent to a neurologist, MRI done of the brain which showed the facial artery slightly touching the facial nerve. Treatment? Botox- still awaiting. I later noticed after feeling infra orally that I have a strong pulse and my osteopath confirmed that's it's the facial artery pulsation on the right side. My GP didn't know where to send me and now he's sending me back to the neurologist which could take 6months. I requested my GP to send me to a vascular surgeon to find out why my artery is pulsating but he refused. I'm in a lot of pain and not sure what to do or who to go to

@presouz5 2 жыл бұрын

You need to go to your doctor right now with a form that you have written up by yourself or by an attorney that you fear for your life and you want him to sign that he refuses to send you to the appropriate doctor to check this out further once they have to be called out and you have their signature on that your files and in your hand he may just change his tune! He can always say oh well I didn’t know but if you are a squeaky wheel you have proof that he knew your concern and his signature that you said you wanted to go but he said no you have to be accountable for your own health and making him sign on the dotted line that he will not give you the treatment that you seek is imperative! After off from everything I’ve been reading because I’m having my own problem right now it is not that uncommon.

So me going blind in one eye is or could be that artery? I have problems with taste, hearing & touch. I have neuropathy. I burn a lot & I get wiggly worms under my skin with a bit like feel. Like someone bit the heck out of me. I don't understand why me?! Everyday or every other day 2-3 times & week for at least 3-5 mins my eye goes blind. No pain just pressure. Doesn't go straight black or white, it looks like a think foggy window & smeared like a kid put his fingers there & started to wipe the window. If it is my artery does meds help?

My carotid artery went from "trace" atherosclerosis to 70% occlusion in only two years. Doctors said they never saw anything like that. Yet the extra cranial artery is clear while it's the inter cranial part that is occluded. Doctors said they can't do anything about that. Can't reduce risk factors since I don't have any except age.

Will a aspirin help this matter??

@franciscopartida4167 3 жыл бұрын

Aspirin is used as an antiplatelet medication which keeps the blood a little bit thinner making less likely for blood clots to form and allows easier blood to flow through already narrowed blood vessels. Aspirin won't do anything to resolve the plack buildup itself.
