My husband experienced what we thought was a TIA after a flight to our son‘s house in Florida. He was rushed to the hospital and CAT scan and MRI all came out negative. The Neurologist final concern was that he possibly has.
Posterior circulation disease.

My husband’s initial CT scan of head/neck showed that he had a small clot from one of his posterior arteries … could it be that possibly you also may have had a blood clot that traveled? Fortunately, for my husband, he has a strong heart, and this stopped the blood clot. We are currently following up with cardiologist and a neurologist.

@susanpmadigan Did they put your husband on a low dose of aspirin as a precaution? What were his symptoms when he got off the plane? I had an MRA which is like an MRI but of the arteries leading up to the brain and also an MRA of the arteries in my head and all was clear and so was the MRI so my symptoms are still a mystery!!! I hope your husbands upcoming visits will give him ore information.
