Guest guest Posted April 14, 2004 Report Share Posted April 14, 2004 The way I have been explained it is that when there is less energy utilization for the brain and oxygen limitations due to the inability to utilize it appropriately, it causes imflammation in different areas of the brain. Imflammation can cause temporary narrowing of arteries which causes less blood flow and oxygen to affected areas of the brain. This in return, can cause strokes. Darla, Thanks for the info! What sort of evidence will you see on brain scans if there is or has been metabolic inflammation? Glad to hear you have been feeling better! I sure hope the girls are doing better! e, Chelsea's mom (nonspecific mito) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
