\n \n \n \nFleeting \u2018mini-strokes\u2019 suffered by 50,000 Britons a year may have a long-lasting impact, experts warn.\r\nMini-strokes, also called transient ischaemic attacks or TIAs, are usually considered a short-term issue and are often dismissed as exhaustion, a migraine or a \u2018funny turn\u2019. When they are taken seriously at all, it is usually because they can be a warning sign that a major stroke is on the way.
