Multiple Ministrokes And Lifespan.
Posted: 01-17-06 18:29pm

Hi, my father has had 3 ministrokes in the last year, the first one just under a year ago, the second and third ones were in the last week. At this point it seems that his mind and left side are affected the most. He has lost partial strength and control over the left side of his body. His mind is suffering from massive memory loss and uncontrollable emotional changes.

Though the subject of this post seems questionable, more or less I was wondering what to expect when it comes to a case where there have been 3 ministrokes in less than a year and the last two in less than a week?


Sincerely,

vashant

ps. I expect honesty as I have already thought of all outcomes. Thank you.

Prognosis of stroke
Posted: 04-17-08 04:40am

Prognosis of stroke depends from the location of the brain damage and amount of damaged brain tissue. Prognosis also depends from the presence of other disorders like cardio-vascular, diabetes, hypertension, increased blood fats, respiratory etc. Does your father have any of these disorders?
