Avatar m tn 1 year ago my mother had a hemorrhagic stroke that left her paralyzed on the right side, unable to swallow or do anything for herself. Today my mother's weakness on her right side is almost undetectable. she is eating regular foods, and walking around with a walker. The best thing you can do is get involved and learn as much as you can about her specific stroke and what to except. Use them for a guide, but remember everyone heals differently. I remember my mom did the same thing to me....
Avatar f tn Hi my fiance is 46 & he had a hemorrhagic stroke on left side of the brain while at work on April 26, 2010. He never complained of headaches to me, but I could feel something was different. He luckily was working close to the hospital. He collapsed and hit his head on a piece of equipment. He had emergency surgery and they removed a bloodclot 3/4 size of baseball. Just today he opened both eyes and it was fabulous. The Dr.

She was in the hospital 5 days,her blood pressure,blood work,everything looks good which is very weird!Other then that she was conscious all the time,no memory loss or anything like that.

Avatar m tn Stroke can be ischemic or hemorrhagic. Ischemic stroke occurs as a result of blockage to an artery. For this therapy with clot dissolving drugs (thrombolytics), should be initiated early. Aspirin, an anti-thrombotic drug, is given immediately after an ischemic stroke to reduce the likelihood of having another stroke. Some stroke patients do appear to have 100 percent recovery. And many regain a great deal of their abilities.
Avatar f tn s doctors and what they did for him. Stroke recovery is a slow process, not only for the stroke victim, but for the family as well. It takes a while to process the event and all of the pain. Dad was making a miraculous recovery considering the extent of his brain injury. He regained great movement on his left, affected side and was walking with the use of a walker. Mentally he is still himself, with a few more hiccups. Words don't come to him as easy.
1700686 tn?1307049594 My father (70) had a hemorrhagic stroke four days ago. He has completely lost control and is unable to move his left side (leg and arm) but has no other effect (ex. no speech or cognitive issues). I am sure he will start physical therapy soon but I am desperately trying to find out more information about his recovery. In particular, is there any cases or information on the recovery probabilities of his arm and leg? Thank you for your help...
Avatar f tn My husband is 44 years old. He suffered from a hemorrhagic stroke on 7/3. He has movement on the left side but it is weak. He can speak, eat, talk. He has one more week of acute rehab left as an inpatient then he will follow-up with out-patient thearpy. The biggest problem I have been having is his mind is not the same. He remembers everyone and everything in the past. However, he adds new experiences that never took place today or in the past. He has hallucinations and paranoia.

Avatar n tn It is important to work with a team a rehabilitation team which may include the doctors, therapists and even psychologists to help deal with the emotional aspect of stroke. Complete recovery is unusual but not impossible.
Avatar n tn My husband recently passed away from a hemorrhagic stroke. The doctor said hypertension was the cause. There seemed to be no warning signs except on the day it happened. He had a terrible headache and went downhill from there. He was taking all his medication--plavix, 325 mg of asprin, blood pressure medicine, etc. and was doing fine. He did have very bad back pain but finally got relief and was back to himself for a month and a half. This stroke came on so suddenly....
Avatar f tn My husband had basically the same stroke your friend had. Blood leaking into the brain...a hemorrhagic stroke. His doctors were for sure he was a goner but he proved them wrong. He has deficits but they are pretty minor, although he will never work again. His biggest problem is his vision. He has double vision now and has to wear prism glasses to correct it. His personality has changed but it's not too bad. He's actually nicer than he was before the stroke.
Avatar n tn I had a hemorrhagic stroke in Feb, 2008. I was 52 at the time. I still have problems with feelings in my fingers and general uncoordination of my right arm. I read about a medicide not approved by the FDA but it looks promising. Because it's not FDA approved, its not cavered by insurance and very expensive. Has anybody heard of it and has some experience or knowledge of how it works. The product is called 'Neuroaid'.
Avatar n tn I am a survivor of massive hemorrhagic stroke in 2005. There is considerable cross-over in the symptomology between TBI and Stroke. There are two main types of Aphasia: Receptive and Expressive. Receptive Aphasia is indicated by garbled in-coming messages (verbal, written, vision, tactile) that the victim receives. Expressive Aphasia affects speech, writing, etc. This is perhaps more well-known, obvious, alarming and dramatic.
Avatar f tn My 54 year old father suffered a severe hemorrhagic stroke on February 18th, 2012. He arrived at the emergency within 20 mins and was transferred to another hospital within 2 hours. We were told the bleed occurred in the thalamus deep in the left side of his brain and could not be operated on. His first night in the neuro ICU, a drain was inserted into his head to remove the blood and relieve the pressure on his brain.

Avatar f tn My 78 year old mom suffered a hemorrhagic stroke a month ago, we had been unable to awake her, but she now open her eyes move her right hand and both of her feet, the doctors say she is not being responsive and her movement is just her reflexes but if we're standing in the room talking she opens her eyes if we ask her to squeeze our hand she will squeeze it, also her tongue is swollen so large she's unable to close her mouth the doctors don't know what caused it and they say they nev
Avatar n tn Treatment of stroke depends on whether the stroke is ischemic or hemorrhagic and on the underlying cause of the condition. The long-term goals of treatment include rehabilitation and prevention of additional strokes. In your uncle’s case it could be ischaemic or hemorrhagic stroke due to high BP. If it is a ischaemic infarct, anti platelet drugs, anti coagulants and thrombolytics are employed in the treatment. If it is hemorrhagic infarct the hematoma needs to be evacuated with surgery.
Avatar f tn I had a stroke (hemorrhagic) Sept. 1, 2007. I came home 6 weeks later with ot & pt home visits. This lasted for about a month. It was recommended that I be on outpatient ot& pt. The ot & pt sessions at the hospital were more extensive and helpful from that at home. I'm now able to walk (somtimes I need a cane), I'm able to drive and have went back to work (since May 1). Get all the therapy you can and BE PATIENT!.
Avatar m tn t very good news, the CT scan shows he has had a hemorrhagic stroke. The doctor spoke to my fathers partner today and she relayed the message onto my sister and I. Because my fathers partner only really heard the first few facts of the conversation because of the shock the information we got was a little broken.
