Neurologist,  's  Response
Hello!

Thank you for asking on HCM!

I carefully read your question and would explain that your MRI report indicates the presence of small strokes in both fronto-parietal lobes.

These findings can be related to different disorders:

- migraine
- small vessel disease
- an inflammatory disorder, etc..

That is why, I would recommend consulting with a neurologist for a careful physical check up and some tests:

- a cardiac ultrasound
- an ECG Holter monitoring to exclude possible cardiac arrhythmia
- a Doppler ultrasound of the cervical arteries to investigate for possible narrowing
- blood lipid profile
- PCR and sedimentation rate for inflammatio
- complete blood count for anemia
- fasting glucose for diabetes.

Meanwhile, I would recommend taking aspirin 80-100mg daily.

Hope to have been helpful!

Greetings, Dr. Aida
