hi
no that was not at all fine
tia is a type of stroke which reverses itself

you should look for the cause of the stroke one ruled out it should be treated

tia can progresss to rind which settles down in less then 24 hours which can further lead to full blown stroke if not taken care of

you should get a neorolgy check up as soon as possible

adv tests are
mri brain
lipid profile
carotid artery doppler
these are basic tests to be done
