Suggest Treatment For Transient Ischemic Attack

On Thursday I beleived that I had a TIA and would like to tell you what happened for to know why I feel that way. I was feeling out a form for a New Patient for a New Doctor. I did about 3 pages of questions when the 4th page started to get confuseing and I couldn t understand it. I turned on the TV and knowing the station that I watch I could not make sense of the right side of the screen. I put my hand over one eye & then the other to see if this was a visual problem of the TV. I received a phone call and could not carry on a conversation with her that made feel that something was going on. She wanted to come over but I said that I did not feel well and was going to take a Asprin (baby) and go to bed. On Friday I called her to ask what did she think was going on and she said that I was confused, not focused, and slurring. I have congestive Heart failure and my age is 74 young. I am feeling great as though nothing ever happened. Question: How long of a period of time do you have to now contact my GP?
