hi,

thank-you for Providing the brief history of you.

as you mentioned about the the acute and chronic lacunar infact, it is a small clot in the brain which comes as the ageing of the brain. And this lacunar infarcts are not much to worry as depending upon the medicine available in your region the physician will prescribe one.

also until we know the clinical signs and symptoms this report will be not counted as a major.

incase if the patient has lack of coordination, muscle weakness, fatigue etc. this symptoms can be helped by performing regular exercises which are specific towards the symptoms.

Also breathing exercises and meditation helps alot in overall body conditioning.

regards
