Hi,

What was the reason for stroke, whether you were evaluated with tests like carotid artery dappler or MRI CAROTID angio to evaluate status of your neck and brain vessels. If normal then get an echo done to rule out ASD or patent foramen ovale witch may cause crossing of leg thrombus from rt heart to left heart.

If everything thing is normal then cryptogenic thrombus remains the cause. You must have taken treatment with antiplatelets and anticoagulant till now. So if reports comes normal you may go for rides.

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

Regards,
Dr. Deepesh Agarwal
