Talk to a surgeon: You are right to associate the calcified plaque with the TIA -- and this is certainly possible. However just because it is there, doesn't mean it is causing the symptoms. What a surgeon would want to know is how narrow is the blockage, and are the symptoms potentially caused by it. You should talk to an experienced vascular surgeon.
