A member asked:
Could it take up to 5 months after having a tia to get rid of all symptoms?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: Even if you apply the older criteria to define a tia, all of your symptoms should have resolved in 24 hours. Using the currently accepted criteria, your symptoms should have resolved in one hour. If you continued to have objective findings weeks-> months out, you had a stroke.
