Mini-Strokes Often Go Unnoticed: 9 Symptoms You Should Never Ignore

* Blurred vision
* Double vision
* Partial loss of sight
* Complete loss of vision in one eye
* Sudden difficulty seeing in both eyes

The American Stroke Association includes sudden blindness or vision changes among TIA warning signs.

Because the symptom may disappear quickly, a person might assume that their eyes were simply tired. But a sudden unexplained visual change needs urgent assessment.

## 6. Sudden Dizziness or Vertigo

A TIA can affect areas of the brain responsible for balance and coordination.

Possible symptoms include:

* Sudden dizziness
* A spinning sensation
* Difficulty standing
* Feeling pulled to one side
* Sudden instability while walking

Dizziness alone is very common and can have many harmless causes.

But sudden dizziness combined with weakness, speech difficulty, visual changes, or loss of coordination is much more concerning.

## 7. Loss of Balance or Coordination

Some people suddenly become unable to move normally.
