How Safe Is Body Building After Suffering Transient Ischemic Attack And Paralysis?

I am 60 years old ; male and have been body building most of my life. I had a tia this last december and I m almost back to normal. My left arm was parallysed but with a lot of work, I have it back to about 98%. Is it ok to continue to work out this way. I feel great and most of the doctores said its ok just know when to back off. But at the same time, I read articles to just walk. That alone would drive me crazy. What s your thoughts on my question ?

Hello,

First of all, you should do some investigations such as: measuring blood pressure, lipid profile, kidney function test, fasting blood glucose, ECHO on your heart and ECG.

Second, you should receive medical treatment for TIA such as Aspirin 160 mg twice per day.

The results of the investigations can help you to avoid the second attack of TIA. Moreover, you should decrease the fatty meals you eat every day and replace them with more healthy food.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
Dr Dr/Mustafa, Neurologist
