[|Human|] I had a mild stroke last November with no real obvious side effects. I was taking atorvastatin 10mg daily but my Dr took me off 2 months ago because I was having cramps in my feed and hands. I am still having cramps but also in my calves now. I am having pressure in my head and for a couple of days now I am having what feels like vibrations in my left chest on and off. No pain with it though and no shortness of breath. I don t know if some of this is due to anxiety but I never have a day when I feel good. I have had my heart checked and blood work and have an appt for bloodwork on Monday. My Dr doesn t seem to have any real idea of what may be going on. I have an appt with a neurologist in a couple of weeks but I am really worried about what all is going on. I am a 62 year old female, I do not smoke, I weigh about 167 and exercise regularly
[|AI|]  I read your question carefully, and I understand your concern. The symptoms you relate though don't seem to be related to the stroke it is more probable they are due to anxiety. It is good you have done blood work for some other potential causes, I hope thyroid function was included as a common cause of anxiety. As for stroke treatment it consists in identifying the cause and ad Chat Doctor.  Most common causes are heart arrhythmias, high blood pressure, diabetes, smoking, high cholesterol. I suppose you have been evaluated for those. Also, you should take a blood thinner. I hope to have been of help.
