I69.8: Sequelae of other and unspecified cerebrovascular diseases
You have a disorder in the blood vessels in your brain. As a result, you have symptoms.
When the brain does not receive enough blood, the brain tissue can get damaged. Various symptoms may arise as a result. These problems may also be long-term. Sometimes, too, certain problems only develop after a long time has passed. Symptoms might be difficulties speaking, for example. One might also be no longer able to move certain parts of one’s body properly, or one may be unable to remember things properly.
