Since this is a PD website, I will defer to another expert and direct you toward your internist and general neurologist for strokes and blood clots. If you are talking about a blood clot from DBS or a blood clot causing PD symptoms I would be happy to help you with a specific response, I wish you luck in getting to the right expert on stroke/blood clots._________________Michael S.
