Detailed Answer:
Dear Sir

Thanks for the report

You are suffering from Acute Infarct.
This means that there is a clot or obstruction to the blood vessels supplying the part of the brain. Hence there is no blood flow. In the absence of blood flow, the cells have died. This is called as Infart.

We need to first understand that this clots / obstruction in one vessel can happen in other vessels too

Now
Coming to the next steps
1. We need to Find whether you have risk factors for clot / obstructions / atherosclerosis.
2. Diabetes (Sugar), Hypertension (Pressure), Dyslipidaemia (Cholesterol) are few such risk factors
3. We need to treat those risk factors
4. If your blood has high tendency to clot, we need to give you anti coagulants

Please feel free to ask further doubts
