I had a mini stroke while on coumidin, my right side was effected, but now after 5 days I still have weaknessWeakness in my right handHand or foot spasms Hand tremor and lower arm, should I be worried? What work can I do, I am not one to sit idle.
Sorry to hear about your TIA.
Try to address the cause of your TIA so that it doesn't happen again nor a full blown stroke.
Your brain & body need a rest they have been through a traumatic time - so don't go full throttle.
When you can gentle exercise on your arm & hand will help to get strength & control back, just don't over do it.
HTH
