A member asked:
After major stroke that affected 3 lobes on left brain due to 100% blockage of coroided how will this effect my life expectancy?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Depends: Carotid arterial disease is a strong marker for heart disease. Your life expectancy will depend on the co-morbid disease you have: especially in your heart, which should be evaluated after you've sufficiently recovered from your stroke. Good luck, my friend.
