Stroke from Drugs?!

by Suzie9, May 01, 2008 02:44PM
Is it possible to have a stroke from taking Ecstasy/Cocaine?

What do the images look like from an M.R.I. scan?Are there any similarities to M.S. lesions/Plaques?
Could they be discribed as High attenuation?

Any answers would be much appreciated.

Suzie.

you should read the post a few down, it talks about risk factors for strokes and at the very end of the post it talks about drug use and strokes.

I hope that you can find help. so many doctors just passed me along. Saying I had to many symptoms, and then to deal with the insurance issues.... it doesnt matter where they come from at this point, you need to get help if your having symptoms before they get worse.. good luck
