Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
Yes, these are transient ischemia attacks and could be a prelude to a major stroke and we need to stop these right here . consult a neurologist or near eat stroke clinic and get a MRI of brain done and mostly they will start you on blood thinners and antihypertensives.
