[quote=Anonymous]I wonder if she had a PFO. Something like 20-25% of people have a PFO and most don't know it, unless they need high level cardiac assessment for a different condition. But it does markedly increase your risk for having a stroke, and combined with COVID (which also increases stroke risk) is particularly not a good thing. There was a study that showed that something like 50% of people with stroke of unknown origin have a PFO (so if 25% of people have a PFO, that seems like it maybe doubles your risk for a stroke?). There's a lot of weird cardiac congenital issues that people are walking around with and have no idea that they have. [/quote]
