Hello

[SimonHunter]

Was diagnosed with a cerebellar infarction which I believe is a subtype of a ischemic stroke after a mri scan for left sided tinnitus

Also blood tested twice and have aps as well

Still on clopidogrel and statins so far

Yes it is a type of ischemic stroke. Do you have any other issues due to the stroke or was it a TIA : trans ischemc attack- symptoms abate within 24-48 hours?
