Worth checking into
I’ve had both and although my mri was clear my MRA showed something very unusual. I have a missing right anterior cerebral artery.
My left artery does all the work for the whole brain, I was born with this anomaly Drs say.

Drs have just said what I stated - the left side does all the work. What they can’t agree on is whether it affects my APS.
However a recent pet scan of my brain is abnormal and I’m still waiting for more information about this so watch this space x

Best wishes from me.
