I also have had many left and right hemisphere ischemic strokes and many issues getting back to myself. I have aphasia, but its getting better than it was for sure! I had bad balance issues and thinking was all mixed up for awhile too. I do have a few dead area's now in the brain though. I get confused easily now and forget things a lot. I have Connective Tissue Disease as well, Sleraderma can cause them, but my neurologist put me on a 10 mg Statin to be safe. I had many MRI'S and echograms as well to try and see why... Nothing , but I'm thinking its the Connective Tissue disease causing the small blood vessels to make the strokes happen. It is very dramatic and draining for me too. I hope you don't have more.. This has been going on for me for about 5 years now. Started at 61 after I had Covid shots and antibodies given to me. I really believe it caused my Connective Tissue disease. Its incurable and my Raynouds disease is terrible now too. Take care!!
