I'm not surprised by your fatigue, it's parUveitis for the course. However, the presence of numbnessNumbness and tingling & movement deficits leadLead poisoning me to think that you had more than a TIA. By definition, the symptoms of a TIA completely resolve within 24 hours.
Are your symptoms a carry over from the original episode or did they appear later? If later, I suggest you get checked out again.
Also you mention spastic movements - have you been diagnosed with spasticity? If so this indicates, neurological damage in the brain or spinal chors. If not, just to let you know that spasticity has a specific meaning in the world of stroke/neurology, not just lack of control.
Sorry to hear about your episode :(
