What are the symptoms of a "mini stroke"?

Numbness and tinglin: Common to have numbness and tingling sensation and transient weakness of one side of the body and also transient slurred speech or aphasia. Usually lasting 24 hours.

It varies.: A mini stroke typically refers to a transient ischemic attack which resolves on its own. There can be different symptoms, depending on the area affected. But unlike a stroke a TIA doesn't destroy brain cells or cause permanent disability. However, tias may recur and each TIA increases the risk of a subsequent stroke. You should talk to your doctor and get evaluated appropriately.

Same as a stroke: A mini-stroke or TIA (transient ischemic attack) is a stroke. However, it is a stroke that goes away, in as much as a few minutes to as long as 24 hours. If a stroke persists longer than 24 hours, it is generally considered permanent, though most tias resolve in a few hours, and the longer that it persists, the less likely it is going to go away. Be seen immediately for a stroke.

TIA: Can cause visual changes, weakness on one side, difficulty speaking. Same as stroke. Get help fast. See www.Stroke.Org.
