What is a pre stroke?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
A pre stroke is also known as a transient ischemic attack (TIA). It is nothing but a small stroke. It is experienced when blood supply to brain is stopped for a very short period. Its effects may be experienced for a few hours or for a few minutes. The symptoms usually subside within 24 hours. They begin rapidly, and they go away very soon.

View allI'm taking vertin and stemetil for my vertigo just like my doctor recommended, but I'm still having one or two vertigo episodes even with the meds. Plus, it seems to happen more when my stomach's empty. Is this normal? I've also had migraines for 20 years now. Does vertin actually stop vertigo completely?
You seem to be suffering from vestibular migraine. You may need long term migraine prophylaxis. Simple anti vertigo medicines are not really useful

I've been experiencing this weird numbness in my body while I'm sleeping at night, and it's making me really restless. I'm just wondering what might be causing it? Are there any specific tests I should consider to figure out whats going on?
The probable causes of teeth grinding or bruxism during sleep are: 1. *Stress and anxiety*: Tension can lead to teeth grinding. 2. *Misaligned teeth or bite*: Dental issues can cause teeth to grind. 3. *Sleep disorders*: Sleep apnea, insomnia, or restless leg syndrome. 4. *Habits*: Caffeine, nicotine, or alcohol consumption before bedtime. 5. *Medical conditions*: Parkinson's disease, Huntington's disease, or gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). Consult a dentist or a healthcare professional to rule out underlying conditions and explore possible treatments.
