I had a stroke at age 39. I had no known risk factors, and other than dealing with unexplained migraine headaches, I was in good health. My stroke was caused by a PFO- a hole in my heart that was a hidden birth defect until it caused a clot to go to my brain. Just like Tedy Bruschi, I was not aware of this defect until it caused my stroke. I know I am blessed to be on my way to a full recovery and it continues to be my goal to help educate others who may also unknowingly be at risk. To learn more about how a PFO caused my stroke please read my story at: http://www.my-physical-therapy-coach.com/patent-foramen-ovale.html
