Deana: I was so concerned when your sister first told us about this stroke. I'm doubly concerned because I echo what others have posted here - if what you've told us is the entire story, it certainly sounds fishy to me. I could not have heparin, and was on an argatroban IV for days in the hospital. Finally they decided to send me home, with instructions to get & take Arixtra (similiar to Lovenox, which they gave you.) This is a once-a-day shot....as I'm sure Lovenox is too. It's just used to tide you over until the Coumadin gets a bit more therapeutic.
My symptoms when I thought I was having a TIA were very similiar to yours, however. Kind of disconcerting but a head CT showed no evidence of stroke in my case. I hope & pray you'll have no further incidents of this nature! VERY glad to see you back here! Keep us posted on how you're doing
