I am an active 65 year old man. I bike 300 miles per month. On Saturday, February 1, 2025, while at dinner I started suffering from extreme vertigo. I felt sick to my stomach. The room was spinning. I was nauseous. I was at a restaurant with my wife at the time. After about 15 minutes, it dissipated. I went home and fell asleep for about 2 hours from about 5PM to 7PM that evening. 2 days later on Sunday morning, February 3, I went for my bike ride. After about 15 miles I had to stop at a traffic light and once again vertigo symptoms came upon me. Once again, they dissipated about 15 minutes later. My wife picked me up and I went home and slept for an approximate 2 hour time frame from 10-12 AM or so. I visited my internist on Monday, Februrary, 3 and he checked me out. We discussed possible treatment for vertigo. But, he also asked me to get a brain MRI (just in case), which I was able to schedule for Wednesday, February 5. The result of that MRI showed that I had multiple cerebellum strokes in the last 48 hours or so and I was immediately taken to the ER. In the ER and hospital my heart was checked with both a heart ultrasound and an esophogeal ultrasound. Those tests both were negative. My arteries in my neck and the back of my head were also checked through an ultrasound with dye. Those tests showed my arteries were clear. I was released from the hospital about 48 hours after admittance. I was a little dizzy (from the cerebellar strokes) and had signs of mild double vision. The acting cardiologist fitted me with a heart monitor for 30 days to check for AFIB but the test showed that I did not have AFIB. I visited my opthamologist re the double vision. She indicated that double vision was common for stroke victims and if it is minor then surgery would not need to be performed. She remarked that the quality of my eyes were outstanding and not consistent with someone who had just had multiple strokes. She thought over time the double vision would disappear. As of today I still have permanent double vision. I also have APS which requires me to be on blood thinners for the rest of my life (5 mg daily). I am also required to take aspirin every day (81 mg). And, I worry about a possible future stroke and so does my wife of 45 years.

Heart Ultrasound (02/05/2025); transesophageal echocardiogram (02/06/2025); artery ultrasound (02/05/2025); cerebellum artery dye ultrasound (02/06/2025); All tests OK. Hypercoaguable blood study was performed on March 11, 2025, and analzyed on April 24, 2025. This test was redone on June 19/26, 2025 and analyzed on July 17, 2025. The results of the study demonstrate that I have a rare auto immune disease which causes my blood to want to clot inside my body. It is called APS (antiphospholipid syndrome). In my case I have high levels of cardiolipin AB (all of IGA, IGG and IGM). In addition, I have high levels of Beta 2 Glycoprotein I AB (all of IGA, IGG and IGM).
