hi,
there are not the symptoms that will surely lead into another embolism episode,but cannot be entirely ruled out.
You can get a CT angiography of the brain blood vessels done to anticipate any such episodes.
Hope you are already on blood thinners to avoid any further thromboembolic phenomenon.
thanks
Do not neglect those symptoms as they may be indicator of formation of new embolus ..get a ct angio done and INR test..PTT..
Hi
You have no symptoms of another embolism, in my opinion your headache and pain is caused by cervical spondylitis, I recommend a cervical MRI
Good Luck
U need to go first for ENT and opthalmoligy consultation
