Could be microclots. TIAs or mini strokes. They won’t show up on MRIs unless you get very lucky. I kept having stroke symptoms, one sided weakness being the biggest one. 3 years of being told it was clots. A big clot showed up in lung and nearly killed me. Put me on blood thinners and one sided weakness and other symptoms cleared up. They ran genetic tests. I have a clotting disorder, factor 5 Leiden. Plus an autoimmune condition that is known for clotting problems. Even 325mg aspirin will “mostly” stop issues for me.

First of all, thank you for trying to help, and I'm glad they discovered it in time and I hope it stays under control. While I cannot be sure that's not what I have, one side weakness doesn't sound quite like it and in addition, when I tried aspirin in the past it didn't noticeably affect the level of pain I'm experiencing (nor do other NSAIDs such as Ibuprofen and Naproxen, both however work great for me in case of a headache, which I rarely experience)
