Hello,
It depends on her clinical situation. A spinal cord stroke can lead to paralysis, if not treated at the right time (as early as possible).
Regarding the hematologist, I agree with the doctor recommendation, as most of the time, spinal cord stroke is related to hematological disorders, which lead to increased risk for stroke.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
Dr Ilir Sharka, Cardiologist
