Can Birth Control Cause Mini Stroke?

Two nights ago I woke with a strong headache and dizziness. I tried to walk down stairs to get tylenol, when I did, I fell uncounscios on the ground for 45 seconds. It happened before when I was 17. I am 28 now. The only common factor I can find is that in both cases it happened within 6 months of beginning birth control. Could it be a mini-stroke caused by birth control?
