A member asked:
Can you remember things that went on during a mini stroke? i also have vascular dementia
A doctor has provided 1 answer
usually yes: Unless the stroke involves connections subserving memory functions, or level of consciousness, you should have no amnesia for episode. But if you have short-term memory loss anyway, then you likely will forget most of what occurred.
