    Looks almost exactly like a seizure. Has it been confirmed it’s a mini stroke?

      From what I’ve read, the symptoms from both of these episodes are more consistent with a TIA. He hasn’t confirmed anything, all we got from the last one was his handlers saying that “he’s fine” (this is definitely a normal thing that happens to people who are fine btw).

      He reported dizziness, displayed difficulty understanding what other people are saying (asking if the reporters could speak up), and he didn’t just “snap out of it” and return to normal afterwards. These are not typical absence seizure symptoms.
