Polo, Don’t listen to anyone - - yes your effort will take you far. Keep a routine and do it daily. It will suck in the short term but you will see results.
I've had e ischemic strokes in 7 years. I recovered so well from the first and second stroke I thought it would be the same with my third stroke. I was very wrong! My left leg is still not responding. The grief is tremendous. I want to be the person I was. I had no warning signs for any of the strokes. No high blood pressure, no headaches, fine one moment and the next half my body didn't work. We had to sell the home I loved and move to Florida to be close to my daughter. Seemed like my life was turned upside down out in a moment. I still feel resentful losing my home and moved so far away. really wanted to stay in my behome, it's been 2 years since the move and everyone thinks I should be over it. If I could walk again I'd at least feel I could be norrmal and be able to do the usual things other 64 years old's are out doing. I still have my drivers license and a car but my family won't let me even try. I was lucky because my left arm is back to normal, it's just the left leg that's still affected. physical therapy is done. They tried but I just couldn't make any useful progress with the left leg. I feel like I've been on a plateau for 3 years. I don't think i can stay positive much longer. I would really like to visit Dr. Tobinick down in Boca Raton but it's just so expensive. I'd gladly pay if I had the money.. I really feel there is no future when I remain this way. Sorry for the rambling post but I just needed to get it out. Thank you. Hi Polo, I wish I had the mindset you do.Very positive. Surrounded by people who can support you emotionally and physically. Best of luck for the future.
Thank you for sharing your experience. It’s understandable to feel frustrated, especially with your left leg not responding after therapy and the changes in your life. Revisiting therapy with a different approach or exploring assistive devices might still offer some improvement. Regarding Dr. Tobinick, it could help to look into financial assistance or support groups that might offer solutions for the cost. Stroke recovery can feel like a plateau, but progress can happen over time, even if it’s slow. Keep exploring your options, and don’t hesitate to seek support when needed.
I feel your pain I'm 44 had stroke February this year effected left side I was in hospital when it happened after aerotic valve replacement I can walk with a quad cane my arm just doesn't seem to want to act right I can close my hand kinda lift it up taking everything I got to do so. hoping to regain everything like he said the lord has the last say,I feel like giving up all the time but all that I've made it through I have a purpose God would have let me die a long time ago I had eshemic then hemoragic if that's how you s ok spell it ,never give up The Creator which is in you has the last say you are the temple of God that means you are just a building that God lives in , like he said be greatful for what you can do,I swear my story is similar to Polo
I was exactly the same I thought I learned how to walk again after a car wreck in97 thought I'll learn again strokes ain't no joke, I'm like him wouldn't wish it on anyone had a stroke in February of this year after aerotic valve replacement effected left side completely changed my life at 44 they say I had the ischemic stroke from being opened up to long had 2 brain aneurysms they removed them successfully and I could still move but they didn't stop the blood thinners and had a hemoragic stroke that they didn't tell me about I just got my records
I am a stroke survivor. I had a hemorrhagic stroke in 2013 when I was 53. I remained bedridden for 2 months. Now I am 64, 16th September 2013 Monday when Stroke changed my life. My left side of the body is still affected although I can walk on my own without any support. No diabetic, No Alcohol, No smoking, and only tea but a stressed person due to my financial constraints and family issues. SDK ONLINE STROKE AWARENESS IS MY TH-cam TUBE CHANNEL. I have made a video from your booklet 7 questions to ask from your doctor after your stroke.
I had a hemorrhagic stroke and I'm still dealing with the effects of it (my walking and right hand fine motor are affected). I was an LPN (Licensed Practical Nurse) and graduated the nursing (RN) program and passed the boards here in USA but stroke came along and ended that! Am I dealing with sadness, heck yeah, everyday! I always asked the question why me? I am young and I saw the effects from being a nurse and treating the stroke victims. But it happened to me and now it's my turn to deal with it. I can walk, drive, jog, ride a bike, lift weights, type, write now because of the home exercises I am doing. Thank goodness there's no contractures. You're never the same physically no matter what. Oh yeah I was 46 when it happened to me so it just goes that stroke don't have any prerequisites attached to it. It can happen to anyone. Yeah it sucks but like what they said, it gave me a different perspective of life. So keep up the goodwork Bill and goodluck to you Polo.
Bill,vidio sam na tvojoj stranici da si mrenu,kataraktu operirao nakon moždanog udara..kakvi su ti bili simptomi od tih problema sa mrežom,I da li ih je operacija poboljšala,I da li ti je oko sad u redu?p.s..,da li je ta operacija komplicirana,I koliko nakon operacije treba oku da se stabilizira...veeeeliki pozdrav Bill
Imao sam zamućene točke u očima koje je primijetio samo moj oftalmolog tijekom pregleda. Zahvat je brz, a oporavak jednako tako. Nakon operacije, više mi nisu trebale naočale koje sam nosio od svoje pete godine.

Polo,

Great advice.
