The Three Types of Stroke
There are three major types of stroke
Ischemic - these are caused by a blood clot or collapsed blood vessel
Hemorrhagic - these are bleeding strokes
TIA - Transient Ischemic Attack. Some people have referred to them as "mini-strokes", but this is deceiving. Even though the symptoms of a TIA disappear, it is a warning sign that a large stroke could be coming.
