text: so, my 40 yr old sister has a mild stroke 2 weeks ago and her neurologist has not returned her calls since fri how does one get a "medical doctor" to respond to such a situation before something worse might occur? my question for you is, does she have a family doctor? and if so, she needs to explain what has happened. my mother is only 47 and she had a mild stroke(tia)about two weeks ago, her family doctor had a mri and a mra done which showed some damage done to her brain...if your sisters doctor does not do something now then she could easily have another stroke that causes permanent damage..keep calling the neurologist,be as persistant as you can be...if you have to take her to someone else and explain what's going on, normally when someone has a mild stroke it is a warning sign that a major stroke is  or will happen.... i hope i helped some, good luck to you and your sister...hope all goes well.
