First TIA August 27, 2016 9:16am EST

It has been almost 2 weeks since this first TIA. No damage shown from brain MRI. I am recovering with tons of tiredness. I am 68, was not prepared for such devastating tiredness. I need mostly quiet time with some visiting on the phone, small amount of in person visits and some TV time. Everything wears me out until I feel just sick. Don't want to drive anywhere myself yet because of the wear and tear of it. I am wondering if this is usual for TIA or could this be from the statin rx or the aspirin to thin blood. Anyone have feedback?

Though I might be getting tired a little earlier in the evening; I am not experiencing what you describe. I'm 74 and have been going to the gym about 4 times a week for 20 months. I'm also involved in several local volunteer activities, each day. Now a vegetarian since my TIA. I believe, the more I keep moving - the better I am able to keep moving. Maybe you can start with baby steps and build up over time. Brother Ben
