I was successfully taking premarin vaginal cream for over 25 years before my stroke 8 months ago at age 82. Could that have been a cause?
What HRT were you taking?

@grrranny …yes..they don’t prescribe Premarin anymore. I was on an estradiol patch and progesterone pill. One of them can cause bloodclots and the other one makes the arteries more flexible and the plaque can break off and cause a heart attack.
