I had an ischemic stroke when I was 23. 25 now and Ive literally just had a PFO closure today. The doctors said it could be because i was on contraception pills which I will NEVER take again. Srsly pls check if you have a hole in your heart before taking these pills, i had no idea. Anyway heres to being pregnant WOOOO actually dont even take these pills they are horrible for your mental and physical health.

I had stroke of unknown origin but when I got older they found I had ASD from birth. I have since had two more strokes, a pulmonary embolism with hundreds of tiny blood clots in my legs and a cardiac arrest. Fortunately I was in the hospital when the cardiac arrest happened or it would have been all over. I'm now 74 years old and my doctors have never said anything about getting the hole repaired. I asked if my strokes could be related and the answer I have heard was no, don't think so. I also suffer from hemoplegic migraines. It seems that I have been misled by my doctors who do not appear to know much about this.

Firstly, if you have any sort of heart palpitations or any other sensations in your heart, go see a doctor! I had heart palpitations that were horrible several times over years before I had a stroke. They made me feel light headed, short of breath, and my chest was horribly uncomfortable. Looking back, it definitely seemed like a serious condition, and I should have seen someone. If I did I probably would not have had the stroke. Didn’t realize how common this was though. I thought it was crazy that I had a stroke at 18 some weeks ago, but it seems I’m not even special for it, which is sad because that shit fucks you up. Apparently there’s some good correlation between getting this procedure and no longer having migraine type headaches. A surprising number of good things because of this stroke though. Those headaches killed me for the day. When I had the stroke it was just like I was having another headache, except I also had memory loss. Good luck to anyone getting this procedure. Both that the procedure goes well, and that you recover well! I’ll try to update this comment after the operation in a couple months with how it went.

I had this done two years ago. Unbeknownst to me I had blood clots in my legs which went off one morning and I suffered extreme vertigo with sickness and violent vomiting. I was rushed into the hospital. They found embolisms in my lungs. Some particles of the blood clots got through the PFO (persistent foramen ovale, that hole, which about 20 per cent of the population has) and so caused a stroke. I was so sick. That was 10 months before I got these little umbrellas. The operation is really unproblematic, took 15 minutes at max. The doc said: "In a second your heart will beat like mad, might feel like it's stumbling, but don't worry, that's how it's supposed to be." Then it happened and he said: "We're done." For me the most unpleasant thing was having to take some pills for six months afterwards. But hey, that's really nothing. At least I won't get strokes again from this cause. Anyone reading this, don't worry, this procedure is your friend! Something interesting I learned: We all have this opening when we're still in the womb. Serves as a bypass, as the lungs are not operational yet. The opening usually closes at the first cry. But it doesn't in 20 to 25 per cent of all people.

I had a stroke at age 35 due to PFO (hole in heart). I got this operation done. I feel great. BEFORE the closure of my heart I used to get migraines all the time for years. I would see lightning bolts/stars in my eyesight and my head would hurt. My guess is because my brain was not getting sufficient oxygen. Why? Because the hole in my heart was mixing good blood with bad blood. By bad blood i mean the blood coming back from my body with no oxygen just went straight to my brain instead of to my lungs. AFTER the surgery closure I felt immediate alertness in my brain. Why? because my brain was finally receiving 100% oxygenated blood. And I have never gotten a migraine after that. I feel great. I recommend anyone with a PFO get the closure operation done. Would you rather risk getting a stroke and dying? Or just get a simple operation and save yourself from dying?

I have a patent foramen ovale (PFO) hole in heart) I also have svt (supraventricular tachycardia) having ablation surgery at the end of the month to rectify the rapid heartbeat and abnormal heart rhythm. The patent foramen ovale is a benign issue that apparently a quarter of the population has but it causes an increase risk of stroke and cryptogenic stroke due to blood able to pass from right to left ventricle bypassing the lungs which apparently filter small clots from the blood supply which is a little worrisome but ok. The issue I have is that I have an uncle that has the same issue (patent foramen ovale) and is currently recovering from his 3rd (cryogenic) stroke and he is only 55 (I'm 33) and has lost complete function of the left side of his face. I messaged my cardiologist explaining this and the fact that pretty much every aliment the man has, I have had example we are the only ones in our family to have testicular torsion (very rare condition), SVT and also the only ones in the entire family to have kidneys stones and glaucoma and bad eye sight, so I'm worried to say the least... The issue I have is that the surgery to fix the svt and the surgery to "patch" the PFO are identical so in my mind it makes since that while I'm young I get the procedure done to resolve both issues being they are gonna be in there already instead of waiting to see if anything happens bc it is a "defect" and has an increased risk of stroke associated with it. Well my cardiologist states the likely hood of me having those issues is very low so he will absolutely not patch the hole?? With my family history it looks like he would be willing to fix both issues now instead of risking doing it after I have a stroke. My question is for cardiologist or doctors what should my next move be I want to get the surgery as quickly as possible to resolve the svt but I feel like I need to cancel the surgery and look for a cardiologist that is willing to fix both issues. What is the likelihood of finding a cardiologist to do that? Or should I just roll with the plan at hand?
@PaulGPopa2 жыл бұрын
definitely you shoul look for a cardiologist. I had a cryptogenic stroke about an year ago. my neurologist also didn't want me to close the pfo, but the cardiologist made an appointment for the pfo closure from our first meeting. Now I'm 2 weeks after closure and I already see changes in my overall health. I have more energy and I am less concerned about having another stroke.

To Samantha -- a PDA is a small vessel that shunts blood between the Pulmonary Artery and the Aorta that normally closes off at birth. A PFO is the opening between the two upper chambers of the heart that also normally closes at birth. Sometimes these will remain open or, under stress in the first few days after birth, will reopen and will cause respiratory problems for an infant and can cause problems for the child (or adult) down the road. Both require careful evaluation by a cardiologist and may or may not be able to be dealt with in the cath lab with this type of closure device.
