Hello all! Been gone for a while. A couple of weeks ago, I had a stroke. Thankfully, a small one. Because of vasulitis, all of the arteries in my neck except for one are inflammed, so the lack of blood flow caused a small stroke. The neurologists at the hospital put me on Plavix and aspirin. The vascular docs that have been treating the arteritis think that I should take coumadin. I am wondering if anyone else takes it for a stroke. I was thankful not to have to worry with taking it after realizing I may not have the aortic valve replacement. Of course, I obviously do not want another stroke. Because of the lack of blood flow to the head - it is a constant worry. I am just wondering what you all would think. Do those of you that have had strokes take the Plavix/ aspirin - or are some of you taking the coumadin?
I hope that you are all well. The typing/ writing has taken a while after the stroke. Sometimes thinking out the spelling - or typing has taken a while.
Thanks - Piper
