Hi. I’m alive and so grateful for that. It’s been almost 23 years since I had my stroke. Left side paralysis. I drive!! I’ve watched my kids to grow up to be wonderful adults. I’m now a “Grammie “ of 4 beautiful little girls. Married 38 years to the man of my dreams. I’m alive and kicking!!!
That's great! This year end would be my 30 years anniversary. Drove with the help of gadgets when doing business. Must treasure every moment & everyday!
Thank you for this response,am so anxious about me being alive to see my children get married and becoming a grandma too,had mine at the end of January but recovering very fast too,left side too,though am moving around now doing things for myself,but I don't have much confidence yet,but am grateful am alive and hoping and praying to be for a long time😁
Great video! I had a stroke last year and still recovering myself with walking and the of right arm and hand. Everyone is different, all is a stroke warrior!
6 years post hemorrhagic stroke. Left brain , right hemiplegic . Some may be wishful thinking, some a type of placebo effect , but sincerely , as long as I keep practicing , like any exercise , I improve. Recovery , as far as what I lost , I know will not happen. So I avoid that word ; " recovery " Healing, re learning , many words describe this journey . I refuse to think of an end point. Decay is inevitable , it is called old age . But I honestly believe I can improve greatly and I shall keep shooting for that goal . Thank you for the posts . The more that people know of all such things the better off we are. I appreciate your channel.
I just want to get as mobile as possible. I'm 2 year out from my Ischemic stroke...left side affected. Its been a slow process..still not able to use left arm, hand or leg yet.

Thank for this show, wit my 11/29/22 stroke i survived it. I will never drive again or work, my first 5 months was in bed with a Migraine headache like 5days a week. I lost like 15% physically just my mind is like 8 to 12 years old. That is why i cant drive or work, I have learned a lot from you. Left brain 100% blocked for 5 hours..... I feel like im 1% 0f people who had bad stroke but when people talk to me i hear different things and like to get mad a people for talking bad to me. I lost 85 pounds have long hair my tattoo and a gray beard. WTF im 58 years old. Im ok..
Just reached my one year anniversary of my ischemic stroke last Tuesday and while grateful to be alive, I wish my recovery was faster. The advice from your videos has helped me a great deal. God bless you! ❤
I tell people all the time that one of the hardest parts about recovery is just trying to be patient with your brain and body. I’m so glad my videos have been helpful! Thank you so much for your support here through comments and likes, as well as through Patreon. I can’t tell you how much I appreciate YOU!
@@carmella88 Hi! I am able to talk and respond to commands. I remember what led up to it and what happened immediately after, but didn't have the MRI that confirmed I had what turned out to be multiple strokes until 2 months later. I remember being stressed over a musical public performance that day. I was able to play at it, but noticed my musical ability gradually decrease over the next 6 months until I can no longer play my instrument, was kicked out of my band, and lost my ability to speak fluently. I am no longer decisive and second-guess myself constantly. The videos here help me to maintain what I still have.

I don’t know anyone on her but I have had several strokes since April just has small ones last week. I just turn 50 this past March. I just want to say I pray that everyone on this platform is healed and have many many years of joy and healing. I have been blessed through this situation because it could’ve been a lot worse for me. I got all my functions and mobility in less than 24 hours. And I’m blessed to be still able to do the normal things in life. So keep your heads up stay prayed up because YAHUAH has your back
Thank you so much for this video🙏🏼 You have really helped me to stay hopeful ☺️My father had a stroke 5 months ago and he is experiencing constant dizziness and numbness on his right side, I worry that this won't go away however we are staying hopeful. I think the scariest part is that there is no definitive answer with how recovery goes since everyone has a different experience 💔

Yeah, I get that question lot since it been my year and 2 mos now since my stroke and I tell everyone I'm making progress slow but surely and that's all I can say. I have made great progress I work a front desk job now 5 days a week and work 6hrs a day, plus I drive my self to and from my job, I'm walking with my cane and use my effective hand 50% of the time, plus on many job I work at a pool so I swim every other day, So I just thank God just being alive. Thanks again for your video it keeps giving me hope
I am Tarek from Alex Egypt I have major stroke since 2019 you helped a lot with your guidance thank you really it is masing to see you over the Internet I feel happy and better
Don’t give up! I had a stroke October 31, 2023 and am still going. I was 33, 34 now. It seems hopeless at first but keep going. I had full left side paralysis and didn’t get any movement back in my arm until January. I’m working on running now, and am getting control of my hand and arm again! Goodluck!
@@shubhangichandanshive9806 just keep calm and trust your body. I had a stroke a year ago and I was also very confused and afraid. Take the meds and gather info online, my phone became a lifeline when things seemed dark and I was afraid. Good luck and get better soon
I had a stroke last year. My right side. Just knowing how there is still hope and a chance for me to get the use of my arm and hand gives me such hope. Blessings to all and a recovery of all your faculties!!!
I’m glad you made this video. I know personally that I struggled with timeline in the first few weeks. I wanted to be better the same day and that’s just not realistic. I personally had to ask God to use his timeline to heal me as much as I meant to be healed of the time, I meant to be healed, and to take away my personal timeline. That was the only thing that gave me peace, and let me stop focusing on when the recovery would happen, but on what recovery was happening. As I said, that’s what gave me peace and help me not be as frustrated with the process as I had been. I think your video will help a lot of people.
I think that's a very normal response, to want to be better ASAP. When anything life-altering happens, of course we want things to go "back to normal." I love what you said about not focusing on WHEN recovery was happening but WHAT recovery was happening. This is one of the best mindsets and I'm glad you were able to get there. Thanks as always for sharing and for your kind words, Heather ❤️
I have noticed that your exercises make a big difference. Through the exercise I am now walking smoother around the house. I think its been 6 months since I had my Sub Cordial stroke, which left me temporally weakened in my right side. Also I am autistic and repeated movement is something I do everyday. I now do the weight shifting exercise as my movement. :) One thing I do recall is I was/am very positive and that might really help with recovery. Other things I did/do now is piano, touch typing and drawing, and I have also made covers by sewing. All these really help with my recovery One of my goals is to improve enough to attend to my fruit and veggie organics garden. Stay positive, keep safe and listen to your body.
Thank you for your message of hope. I notice how I'm recovering, relapsing, and then recovering again sometimes. My eyesight has been affected by no less then 4 posterior strokes. Some days I bump into everything and everyone, other days I feel like my sight is almost back to normal functionality. The good days are wonderful, on the bad ones I cling to the knowledge that it's a back-and-forth process.
Great thanks for all informative and motivational videos ! I have recovered from a stroke which happened back in March 2021 hence i discovered your UA-cam channel and follow it since then.
Coming up on 3 month anniversary, finally back to work-still struggle with brain fog and cognitive issues it causes. Trying hard to give myself grace, and would like to have brain exercises to do.
I had a hemorrhagic stroke in August 2023. My left side was affective, especially the leg and arm. I fully plan to walk again since the left of healing. Thank you for your videos.
This is so true, and I love how positive your message is. The body & brain are miraculous - always striving to heal & restore. You give people hope, and not falsely !
My wife has terrible non stop head aches since her mini stroke 11-28-2003. That's how it all started for her. She had a mind numbing head ache in her fore head and no medicine would stop that head ache. Her blood pressure was 220 and her sugar was 260 when we wound up in the hospital one Saturday morning. It happened Tuesday before when she texted and asked what our dogs name was. We should have gotten her to the hospital that night but just didn't know. We thought the head ache was causing her confused thinking. Confusion is a sign!

I'm a 60 y/o female and had a stroke during covid. Apparently there was/is a connection between the 2. Praise God at how far I've come. Balance and vertigo remain these years later. If there are any hints I'd love them😊 bless you!
Hello I am wishing you a speedy full recovery!🙏🏼 May you please update us on your balance and vertigo? My father is experiencing dizziness and balance issues after his stroke as well, has it gotten any better for you? God bless you and i hope you feel much better☺️🙏🏼💕
Every stroke is different, I seen people fully recover in a few months, but for me I had a massive brain bleed due to an AVM and my recovery is slowed by spasticity. I still can't lift my arm and my walk is limp. I'm still trying every day, but I say this to say this, some people will never be the same again or back to " normal" That's reality.
@@PostStrokeOrg I'm going on 9 months post stroke. I will say having a strong support system helps as well as having a good therapist. therapy paid by insurance can be a bit of a waste in my opinion. You only get a certain number of visits and sometimes they don't even give you the full hour. I will admit this leaves me feeling discouraged, like I'm wasting my time, but I will say, I do way more at home on my own. I was told by my therapist that I reached my peak or hit my plateau. smh
Yap through the years i been through, people eyes are never the same. Do not be discouraged. Be glad that you are still alive. My AVM has healed & thanks to my doc in Spore and UCSD. Determination is the best. Never give up!
@@jasminekom8382 yep, though I'm discouraged, I'm still trying. I got my 3rd degree belt a week before my stroke and played basketball every week. I was a super athlete. This will take time to grasp. AVM is out of our control. I'm happy to be alive for sure but It's hard when you can't live how you want. I'm glad your AVM is healed, I got mine removed in February and won't know for sure until my yearly follow up, if it's gone for good.. Thank you.
I can understand feeling discouraged. I became so frustrated with the way the healthcare system works, I made this channel! So I get those feelings. And plateaus are normal but recovery doesn’t have to stop there ❤️
Over 1 year and can walk now and move left arm a little, couldn’t move it at all, seizures pull up my recovery, who jb annoy me as I get confidence up again and then it goes back wards, yep , everyday repetitions are the key, keep pushing hard road, I also thought I was going to get better quickly but that’s just being stubborn and not listening or knowing
Awesome as always. Can u please do another video for toe movement. I have left sided weakness. Trying to do more and more everyday. I walk with a cane. My footdrop isn't that bad but my toes are usually stiff. Thanks
was hospitalised for 14 days in Feb 23 I just got to my bathroom n next thing I know I was on the floor... My mum is my lifesaver. She passed on 1May '23. Now, I'm more concerned about the stroke not happening again coz now I'm alone..whose to call the ambulance 😥
I’m so sorry to hear about your recent stroke and your mom’s passing. Those are two really hard things to go through back to back. Maybe consider a health alert bracelet or necklace as a just in case and make sure you have a Buddy system with someone you can check in with daily❤️
How do I survive from my second stroke, the hospital does not want me to take me seriously after having my first stroke? It’s a tough situation i’m going through.
can you please do a video about going back to running after a stroke? It's been 2 years since mine. what skills and progressions must I master before attempting running. thank you!!
stoke 5 years and slowly getting better. wish I had better help.. doing by myself.I cant talk very good and remember places or names.Type..... thank you Post Stroke
This is encouraging, since rehab specialist must follow insurance guidelines; and I am at 6th month and have great progress, and progress continues, but rehab doctors will follow insurance guidelines, and they will not recommend further rehab
Good day!As an ischemic stroke survivor myself I'm wondering what will happen to the damaged (or affected part) of the brain years after? )Please do enlighten me for I tried to search that online and no clear answer were given
hpertension hemorrage of the basil ganglia... right leg/foot n arm/wrist.. had no movement.... now have 30-40%... anyone get a full recovery? thank you
I had a right side acute,subacute basil ganglia stroke. Complete left side paralysis. 8 months later I have about 70% leg foot function and still improving, around 20% arm and hand but that’s been rapidly improving over the last few months. Hope you recover well!
My advice after having a stroke at the age of 44, be sure that Jesus is Lord and savior of your life! And push yourself in recovery/ therapy, it’s a struggle but keep pushing! Don’t give up!
all depends, a nuro dr in florida has been treating stroke patients with EMBREL..even people that had their stroke more than 3 years later with great success.
I’m glad that they found what worked for them. Always important for you to check with your doctor on what treatments will be most effective for your specific situation.
@@PostStrokeOrg P.S...he has been using EMBREL since 2009 and has treated over 3000 storke patients. has had around 75 /85 % success rate...but since it is what they call " off lable " vast majority of nuro drs what even talk about it.. that is a shame since we are all " an experiment of 1 " that is why they are doing designer cancer drug treatments for each individual person... from my understanding , after a stroke there is inflammation and EMBREL helps reduce inflammation in the spinal cord and that inturn some kind of way , they dont know why or how helps signals get back in flow so people can move the arms or legs and stand and sit... just my 2 cents
thank you . I'm dizzy since my stroke. thank you . maybe about 2 and half year . I can ride my bike but I am careful. My light headed , well, any tips? 73
Depends on if your hospital was on the ball and you have a good Dr. Neither has been the case for me. Six months and still have not seen a neurologist to even fully assess the damage or what I should do. Hospital did not diagnose me and discharged me the next day. It took weeks to even get a diagnosis. So?
@@PostStrokeOrg it has been a nightmare navigating the system for sure. Especially as one who has avoided it most of their life and now needs it to work a little in their favor.
Yung nanay ko po kaka stroke lang nasa bahay lang po anu po pwede gawin at pagkain na pwede sa kanya yung pera kasi natabi ko pang gamot lang ni mama wala ako pang gastos sa lab test 66 years old na po si mama
I had a stroke 5 weeks ago... my right leg is less sensitive to heat in the shower.... balance was off but much better now...and a little bit of brain fog can come and go during the day feel about 80 percent to pre stroke.... guess a little lucky.... do my balance exercises everyday and doing 4 days a week in a hyperbaric chamber..got to 66 and felt 40... last year out of hospital cardiac arrest saved by passer buy who had just done a cpr day course had to have a new aorta valve .. this a year a stroke...never ate junk boxed.. moto x.. ran most days.... always thought i was bullet proof....well im'e not.
Cheer~~~a sudden disabling attack or loss of consciousness caused by an interruption in the flow of blood to the brain, especially through thrombosis.😢
As a hemiplegic stroke survivor; I can guarantee you that 98% of this video is wishful thinking. The severity of the brain damage from a stroke is not the same for everyone. Fight through the pain and trauma the best that you can; and don’t abandon your faith in God.
Hello dr.. i would be glad if you could answer my question.. it would help me a lot.. it is regarding a movie i am writing on mental health. Suppose if someone suffers from aphasia after a stroke so what are the symptoms he will experience while having stroke and is there a chance it can last lifetime?
I am asking what are the symptoms when someone is actively having a stroke. What are the symptoms that will make him go to the doctor.. and I believe symptoms of aphasia are that person wants to speak but is unable to.. also can aphasia last life time by any chance? Because i want my character to have it lifetime even after trying so many ways to treat it
i watched 60 min and a woman changed like day and night in just a few minutes but what i find more important or at least just as is why isnt this available all over the world not every1 can fly to florida for this treatment lets make it available to all asap that program i saw on 60 min was 9 yrs old so whats the goldup
Thank you for your comment. I think you're referring to the injection of the drug Etanercept? I highly recommend that anyone considering this reach out to their physician or neurologist do discuss risks vs. benefits, as well as read this article from Flint Rehab on the subject: www.flintrehab.com/etanercept-stroke/#:~:text=For%20the%20treatment%20of%20stroke,drug%20to%20enter%20the%20brain. The American Academy of Neurology (AAN) states that there is insufficient evidence to determine the effectiveness of Etanercept for post-stroke disability.
Hello maam. Could you help us give the links of your videos from step 1 up to the last part. for post stroke exercises?? I mean there's a lot to watch. I just want to watch it per sequence for my mother who is stroke for 2 weeks already

How long will the tingling be gone. Its been 15 months since I have my stroke. I feel the tinglig on my right hand to arm to my elbow. Is there a therapy to alleviate it? Im taking 200mg Gabapentin 3x a day. Thanks and will appreciate any coments…
Hello, wishing you all the best in your recovery🙏🏼 can you please update us on how the tingling is now? My father had a stroke 5 months ago and is experiencing tingling and numbness on his right side, will it ever go away?
I guarantee nobody will be as strong as. they where before their stroke. We may recover from our stroke, but we will never be ninety percent. It is very hard for me to cut a pizza or open a can, but i eefuse to ask for help. It has been six months and im still independent but its a struggle
@calabriagirl4202 That is very true. Strokes affect every person differently. Stroke and heart attacks are the number three cause of death in the United States.
3:31 Great Explainer Video! ❤️🩹👍🏻 IMHO, Recovery is up to you! Mindset matters! Be determined, consistent in your effort and remain positive! Your day is full of possibilities
I got stroke last year June 24,am improving but I can't afford the medication and physiotherapy, I thank God this far he has brought me because he has never left me,sometimes I feel like giving up in life because I can't afford my medication and therapy.

I had a hemorrhagic stroke in August 2023. My left side was affective, especially the leg and arm. I fully plan to walk again since the left of healing. Thank you for your videos.
❤❤❤❤
This is so true, and I love how positive your message is. The body & brain are miraculous - always striving to heal & restore. You give people hope, and not falsely !
Thank you for this video, I'm still recovering from spinal cord compression after 3 years. So yes recovery continues, 😊😊
Two years ago I’m still my recovery keep going 💪🏻
My wife has terrible non stop head aches since her mini stroke 11-28-2003.
That's how it all started for her. She had a mind numbing head ache in her fore head and no medicine would stop that head ache. Her blood pressure was 220 and her sugar was 260 when we wound up in the hospital one Saturday morning.
It happened Tuesday before when she texted and asked what our dogs name was. We should have gotten her to the hospital that night but just didn't know. We thought the head ache was causing her confused thinking.
Confusion is a sign!

I'm a 60 y/o female and had a stroke during covid. Apparently there was/is a connection between the 2. Praise God at how far I've come. Balance and vertigo remain these years later. If there are any hints I'd love them😊 bless you!
Hello I am wishing you a speedy full recovery!🙏🏼 May you please update us on your balance and vertigo? My father is experiencing dizziness and balance issues after his stroke as well, has it gotten any better for you? God bless you and i hope you feel much better☺️🙏🏼💕
I had my stroke two weeks after my second jab I definitely blame it
igen van segitseg !!! .....nemsol szam nemfaj a fejem ez az en poziciom
Thank you for this video. I love to watch your videos.
So welcome! I’m really glad you find them helpful🙂
Every stroke is different, I seen people fully recover in a few months, but for me I had a massive brain bleed due to an AVM and my recovery is slowed by spasticity. I still can't lift my arm and my walk is limp. I'm still trying every day, but I say this to say this, some people will never be the same again or back to " normal" That's reality.
You are 100% right. Every recovery is different and that’s why the timeline is different, as well. Thank you for sharing a bit of your story!
@@PostStrokeOrg I'm going on 9 months post stroke. I will say having a strong support system helps as well as having a good therapist. therapy paid by insurance can be a bit of a waste in my opinion. You only get a certain number of visits and sometimes they don't even give you the full hour. I will admit this leaves me feeling discouraged, like I'm wasting my time, but I will say, I do way more at home on my own. I was told by my therapist that I reached my peak or hit my plateau. smh
Yap through the years i been through, people eyes are never the same. Do not be
discouraged. Be glad that you are still alive. My AVM has healed & thanks to my doc in Spore and UCSD. Determination is the best. Never give up!
@@jasminekom8382 yep, though I'm discouraged, I'm still trying. I got my 3rd degree belt a week before my stroke and played basketball every week. I was a super athlete. This will take time to grasp. AVM is out of our control. I'm happy to be alive for sure but It's hard when you can't live how you want. I'm glad your AVM is healed, I got mine removed in February and won't know for sure until my yearly follow up, if it's gone for good.. Thank you.
I can understand feeling discouraged. I became so frustrated with the way the healthcare system works, I made this channel! So I get those feelings. And plateaus are normal but recovery doesn’t have to stop there ❤️
Hi very encouraging. Plse help me to know more about my eyes. I cant read properly. The vision is not clear. What can i do?
Over 1 year and can walk now and move left arm a little, couldn’t move it at all, seizures pull up my recovery, who jb annoy me as I get confidence up again and then it goes back wards, yep , everyday repetitions are the key, keep pushing hard road, I also thought I was going to get better quickly but that’s just being stubborn and not listening or knowing
Awesome as always. Can u please do another video for toe movement. I have left sided weakness. Trying to do more and more everyday. I walk with a cane. My footdrop isn't that bad but my toes are usually stiff. Thanks
It's a pain in the butt 💯
was hospitalised for 14 days in Feb 23
I just got to my bathroom n next thing I know I was on the floor...
My mum is my lifesaver. She passed on 1May '23.
Now, I'm more concerned about the stroke not happening again coz now I'm alone..whose to call the ambulance 😥
I’m so sorry to hear about your recent stroke and your mom’s passing. Those are two really hard things to go through back to back. Maybe consider a health alert bracelet or necklace as a just in case and make sure you have a Buddy system with someone you can check in with daily❤️
@@PostStrokeOrg
Appreciate v much your reply...
Sorry for your loss ❤! Here is an idea 💡 get an Apple Watch if you fall the watch will dial 911.
Exactly what I was going to suggest .
nagy baj de itt amit mondanak ha nem valtoztatsz az eletviteleden megfog tortenni en em josolo vagyk de segiteni szeretnek
How do I survive from my second stroke, the hospital does not want me to take me seriously after having my first stroke? It’s a tough situation i’m going through.
This is so good,I’ve never had a doctor even explained all this to me,they just don’t have the time, this is very useful, thx x
can you please do a video about going back to running after a stroke? It's been 2 years since mine. what skills and progressions must I master before attempting running. thank you!!
stoke 5 years and slowly getting better. wish I had better help.. doing by myself.I cant talk very good and remember places or names.Type..... thank you Post Stroke
You will get there, don't give up, stay positive
I would love to get back to my pre-stroke self. 😢
I know you’re not alone in that ❤️
I know how that feels stay
💪
I mourn my old self too. Grateful to be alive.❤
I had a stroke 5 years ago and still recovering I'm getting better but very slowly but getting there I'm about 80% back to normal
as a stroke survivor, i would suggest not comparing pre stroke with post stroke.
I had a stroke and my brains always foggy ans lite headed and vertigo bad have to hold the floor 🙃 still on medication for dizziness and sickness 😷
This is encouraging, since rehab specialist must follow insurance guidelines; and I am at 6th month and have great progress, and progress continues, but rehab doctors will follow insurance guidelines, and they will not recommend further rehab
Set up your own program...set goals of all types...do chores...you are strong!

hpertension hemorrage of the basil ganglia... right leg/foot n arm/wrist.. had no movement.... now have 30-40%... anyone get a full recovery? thank you
sorry make that 10-13%
I had a right side acute,subacute basil ganglia stroke. Complete left side paralysis. 8 months later I have about 70% leg foot function and still improving, around 20% arm and hand but that’s been rapidly improving over the last few months. Hope you recover well!
Three years, 6 months, &11 days...still recovering from my right hemiplegic stroke...I will be in recovery for the rest of my life...
Well and simply defined..so helpful..hope my daughter recovers soon..😢
My advice after having a stroke at the age of 44, be sure that Jesus is Lord and savior of your life! And push yourself in recovery/ therapy, it’s a struggle but keep pushing! Don’t give up!
I had a stroke at 45 last year. Jesus is my saviour. Prayer pulled me through. Amen
AMEN 🙏🏾 JESUS IS GOD ALMIGHTY
Amen@@Peter-js4wqamen
Sir prayer for my mom she is admint in hospital brain block nerves plz prayer
You really hit this so true. I really appreciate this message.
all depends, a nuro dr in florida has been treating stroke patients with EMBREL..even people that had their stroke more than 3 years later with great success.
I’m glad that they found what worked for them. Always important for you to check with your doctor on what treatments will be most effective for your specific situation.
@@PostStrokeOrg P.S...he has been using EMBREL since 2009 and has treated over 3000 storke patients. has had around 75 /85 % success rate...but since it is what they call " off lable " vast majority of nuro drs what even talk about it.. that is a shame since we are all " an experiment of 1 " that is why they are doing designer cancer drug treatments for each individual person... from my understanding , after a stroke there is inflammation and EMBREL helps reduce inflammation in the spinal cord and that inturn some kind of way , they dont know why or how helps signals get back in flow so people can move the arms or legs and stand and sit... just my 2 cents
Thankyou I've had 4 strokes thre times 2cin the same day again thanks
Thank you so much.God Bless.
Thank you very much for sharing the informations.God bless you
thank you . I'm dizzy since my stroke. thank you . maybe about 2 and half year . I can ride my bike but I am careful. My light headed , well, any tips? 73
igen !!!
Depends on if your hospital was on the ball and you have a good Dr. Neither has been the case for me. Six months and still have not seen a neurologist to even fully assess the damage or what I should do. Hospital did not diagnose me and discharged me the next day. It took weeks to even get a diagnosis. So?
It definitely helps when you can get necessary and appropriate care! I'm so sorry you're dealing with this. That sounds incredibly frustrating.
@@PostStrokeOrg it has been a nightmare navigating the system for sure. Especially as one who has avoided it most of their life and now needs it to work a little in their favor.
Yung nanay ko po kaka stroke lang nasa bahay lang po anu po pwede gawin at pagkain na pwede sa kanya yung pera kasi natabi ko pang gamot lang ni mama wala ako pang gastos sa lab test 66 years old na po si mama
Where is the newsletter?
do you have a Micosoft Teams sessions?
Hi Elise, is there anywhere you would recommend for looking at the likely journey for someone with central post stroke pain ? Many thanks
How long's a piece of string?
Never ends
my mother had a stroke before 4 months she almost recovered now ,but she feels blood circulation on left side . i want to know why this happens???
Before my stroke I was an artist and fishing guide I now paint with my non dominant hand
I was right handed before my stroke. Now I do everything with my left hand.
Mam your video is very encouraging, given me the will notgive up .
Why the pain in the butt is it a side effect of the stroke and is there any cure
I had a stroke 5 weeks ago... my right leg is less sensitive to heat in the shower.... balance was off but much better now...and a little bit of brain fog can come and go during the day feel about 80 percent to pre stroke.... guess a little lucky.... do my balance exercises everyday and doing 4 days a week in a hyperbaric chamber..got to 66 and felt 40... last year out of hospital cardiac arrest saved by passer buy who had just done a cpr day course had to have a new aorta valve .. this a year a stroke...never ate junk boxed.. moto x.. ran most days.... always thought i was bullet proof....well im'e not.
Thanks again for sharing

Is The ISTM electronic machine any good?
As a hemiplegic stroke survivor; I can guarantee you that 98% of this video is wishful thinking. The severity of the brain damage from a stroke is not the same for everyone. Fight through the pain and trauma the best that you can; and don’t abandon your faith in God.
Hello dr.. i would be glad if you could answer my question.. it would help me a lot.. it is regarding a movie i am writing on mental health. Suppose if someone suffers from aphasia after a stroke so what are the symptoms he will experience while having stroke and is there a chance it can last lifetime?
Are you asking what are symptoms when someone is actively having a stroke or symptoms of aphasia after a stroke?
I am asking what are the symptoms when someone is actively having a stroke. What are the symptoms that will make him go to the doctor.. and I believe symptoms of aphasia are that person wants to speak but is unable to.. also can aphasia last life time by any chance? Because i want my character to have it lifetime even after trying so many ways to treat it
Recovery ends when one stops
i watched 60 min and a woman changed like day and night in just a few minutes but what i find more important or at least just as is why isnt this available all over the world not every1 can fly to florida for this treatment lets make it available to all asap that program i saw on 60 min was 9 yrs old so whats the goldup
I went there injection 💉cost me 10k didn't do anything I was so disjointed 😢 this was in 2020 2025 is almost here and I'm about 80 % back to normal
How long recovery arm

For stroke recovery
Thank you for your comment. I think you're referring to the injection of the drug Etanercept? I highly recommend that anyone considering this reach out to their physician or neurologist do discuss risks vs. benefits, as well as read this article from Flint Rehab on the subject: www.flintrehab.com/etanercept-stroke/#:~:text=For%20the%20treatment%20of%20stroke,drug%20to%20enter%20the%20brain.
The American Academy of Neurology (AAN) states that there is insufficient evidence to determine the effectiveness of Etanercept for post-stroke disability.
Amen
I wish you were my OT 😊

After recovery from hemorrage can they smoke weed
I’d recommend talking with your doctor about that!

Thanks

15 years later and i have had ZERO recovery.
@dilwich Unfortunately, that is the case for some. I'm sorry to hear this ❤️ Recovery is highly variable person to person.

I have a MCA strock on this March2023 almost six months dan can I expect my wrist and fingers mument back left side.?
My brother’s Stroke was massive, he will never recover!
How long will the tingling be gone. Its been 15 months since I have my stroke. I feel the tinglig on my right hand to arm to my elbow. Is there a therapy to alleviate it? Im taking 200mg Gabapentin 3x a day. Thanks and will appreciate any coments…
Have you asked if you have central post stroke pain ?
@@nigelprice3929 I dont have, the right part of my body, hand, arm and foot
Hello, wishing you all the best in your recovery🙏🏼 can you please update us on how the tingling is now? My father had a stroke 5 months ago and is experiencing tingling and numbness on his right side, will it ever go away?
Thunk. Yuo
Most recover about 90%
I now walk with a stick
I guarantee nobody will be as strong as. they where before their stroke. We may recover from our stroke, but we will never be ninety percent. It is very hard for me to cut a pizza or open a can, but i eefuse to ask for help. It has been six months and im still independent but its a struggle
That’s your journey.. not everyone’s journey is the same🙏♥️
@calabriagirl4202 That is very true. Strokes affect every person differently. Stroke and heart attacks are the number three cause of death in the United States.
You did not answer the question. Just like other video, it is more looks like advertisement.
3:31 Great Explainer Video! ❤️🩹👍🏻 IMHO, Recovery is up to you! Mindset matters! Be determined, consistent in your effort and remain positive! Your day is full of possibilities
This is so true! Beautiful words of wisdom. Thank you for sharing ❤️🙂
I got stroke last year June 24,am improving but I can't afford the medication and physiotherapy, I thank God this far he has brought me because he has never left me,sometimes I feel like giving up in life because I can't afford my medication and therapy.
