Re: [PFOSupport] Stroke/pfo

Hello,
I had a right brain TIA about a year ago. But it all started out with horrible headache that I thought it was a migraine. And then it was just pain on my right side of my head. What did you experience? I did not go to the ER right away, I went a couple of days later when the pain was still there, and they told me right away that I had a stroke. And that I was lucky that it was on the right side of my brain.
