Hi
I am Dr Mittal.
I have read your query.

The symptoms are headache , vomitting, vertigo , and even hemiparesis and stRoke. Not all symptoms are presemy in every patient.
The best option for treatment is anticoagulant therapy. We start on heparin. And continue warfarIn. Usually needs admission for treatment.

thank you. is a cvt something that requires immediate treatment? my neurologist has started me on a daily asprin regimen until she confirms diagnosis. also assuming she is correct should I be limiting any particular activity?
Brief Answer:
Will need immediate treatment
Detailed Answer:
No need to limit any activity.
As I said, it needs anticoagulation therapy.
Once diagnosed it will need immediate treatment.
But tI'll your neurologist has not confirmed it, better to wait.
Therapy has its side effects too.
