Hello,

First of all, you should do some investigations such as measuring blood pressure and if it was high, you should receive medical treatment and do an ECG, an ECHO on your heart and the lipid profile in your blood.

Moreover, you should take aspirin 160 mg twice per day after meals and Pentoxifylline twice per day after meals, because you could have a transient ischemic attack.

You should decrease the fat-rich diet and salt intake. If you are a woman who takes contraceptive pills or hormonal replacement therapy, you should ask a gynecologist for help.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
Dr Dr/Mustafa, Neurologist
