What is the difference between a TIA and a heart attack?
My doctor said its possible I suffered a mild ischemic attack. His explanation was very vague and sounded as if he could not determine between them.

A TIA, Transient Ischemic Attack is a brief interruption of the blood supply to the brain and maybe a precursor to a full stroke. A heart attack is a blockage of blood to the heart.
