How soon after a small stroke could someone get another, if no medication was taken?

First 30 days: You are at greatest risk within the first 30 days, then the risk gradually decreases. Atrial fibrillation that is untreated increases the risk. Treatment for stroke not associated with atrial fibrillation can be Aspirin and a lipid lowering agent. The therapy does not need to be complicated, nor does it require a specialist to follow you.Your pcp can follow the lipid lowering agent.

CVA : There are no rules, can have another episode right after or much longer after but one makes another more probable.
