I had my stroke at the old age of 46.  It was difficult the first week in the hospital as I had difficulty talking and my entire left side was weak.  When I got home I practised the exercises I was given to do as therapy and also attended rehab.  I asked the family not to do things for me unless I asked them to.  It was frustrating not to be able to do simple everyday tasks.  And while I intellectually knew strokes could cause depression I never applied it to me.  Shortly after going home I one day decided I just couldn't stand it any more.  Of course I was now suffering major depression but didn't recognize it in myself.  Luckily my Dr did and started me on a regimen to control this.\n\nWhat I am saying is treat your brother the same as always.  Let him be your guide on how much assistance he needs.  And be on watch for the sudden depression - not saying it will happen but it is possible due to hormonal and chemical changes in the brain.

You're not having a stroke, but go see your doctor now ... before you do.\n\nJonnie

I would not limit yourself to homeopathic approaches.  I would look for a doctor with a holistic approach to treating patients.  These could be medical doctors, Chiropractors, osteopaths, or naturopaths.  There are many approaches, depending on lab tests and physical examination findings, that can help to support the neurological tissues.  Look for a company on the web called Standard Process.  They have high quality whole-food vitamin products and they are only sell them through doctors.  You should be able to find a doctor in your area who utilizes their products be contacting the company.

Here's what you do: Try to cut out dairy and meat completely or limit yourself to small servings every few days!  Little or NO oil, fried foods.  Every night and every morning, a glass of Lemon and water.  Stevia, although more expensive is a natural sweetener and should be used instead of sugar.  Use whole wheat bread and flour,  white bread and flour sticks to your arteries.  Eat only fruits up until noon.  A LOT of esparagus.  Good and healthy w/ soy sauce, mixed w/ little virgin olive oil, garlic and another spice you may wish to use.  This will help avoid other strokes in the future.  Remember to walk or swim, or do some sort of excercise daily, improving cardiovascular system.  Best of Luck!

I have noticed that you don't answer in this forum, you just ask. Why? \nStart answering and you will find it very relaxing. Practice aerobic, that is also relaxing and very easy to practice.\nQuit smoking ; nicotine is vasoconstrictive, that is a "smaller" amount of blood will arrive in your head when you will need to think about something.You know, when we think we need a bigger amount of blood in our head. Blood transports all nutrients and oxygen.If you haven't the correct amount, you will get at least the headache!\nIf you like natural treatments, start with an infusion of camomille,valeriane ecc. that you will prepare as written in the instructions of the confection, add a spoonful of honey and drink at least 1 - 2 cups before going to bed.\nLimit the daily intake of coffee, tea, Coca-Cola.\nThere are also some pills of herbal origin that can induce sleep.Be careful when you buy these products: buy them just from the pharmacy. \nGo shopping, if you like it and do whatever you like,ie. gardening, ecc.\nTake care on what you eat. This is not something of immediate effect, but it will help also in the future.\nEgg plants for example contain Mg(magnesium) that is helpful, because it helps relax.\n\nGood luck and start answering in this forum!\n\nKaterina\n\n\nYOHANA, I CAME BACK some hours after my answer, because I wanted to check if you have followed something of what we have told you. BUT, I realize that you haven't started to answer any questions in this group.\nYou have put just one more question and then you disappeared!\nWhat I have to suppose?\nWas my opinion sooooooo worthless OR you have implemented all the rest and then you went to sleep, so you are not available anymore?

Demand a second opinion. Positive note I had similar symptoms for years rarely a day off. I had a brain scan, a EEG and other tests turns out I have hemiplegic migraines - very scary. I have an aura with mine - a bad taste often triggered by what I eat or smell. Gloss paint sends me off my legs for up to 2 weeks. I was investigated for having a stroke! Go back an see your Dr if symptoms don't improve and demand further tests! Have allergy/ sensitivity tests done, mine showed my triggers as being corn, melon, larger etc. I changed my diet and took FEVER FEW natural health supps and have made a fantastic recovery, with the occasional relapse. I f your symptoms are new to you and you have had no further investigations than a DR appointment, go back and demand more. Take a friend or relative with you if your reluctant to push the issue. You only have one life - enjoy it. Luv J xx

As a person who works with post stroke patients. I agree that you should have him evaluated by a speech therapist. They will eval his swallowing as he eats.    It's a tough thing for a family let alone the patient to go through.   Until you can get him into a specialist try these tips.\n\nVery small bites of food. Try not to make his food runny, too much liquid can gag your dad. You can get a powder called "thicken" probably at the pharmacy or even at a nursing home ( your best bet would be at the nursing home) Follow the directions on the can. You can mix this tasteless powder with all liquids, it does just what then name implies. It thickens the liquids enough so it doesn't choke/gag the patient. Most times the mix looks like a nectur consistency, you can make it thicker or thinner as you need it.    Give it to him by teaspoon, have him sit up straight while eating, give him time to work through the food, remind him to tuck his chin to chis chest as he swallows. He may not eat much at one time so to keep his strength up offer him several "snacks" through out the day. \nIt is important that he gets the nutrition in some way, Ensure, and other supplements can also be thickened.  Good luck and God bless

You have to be careful taking herbal supplements.  They tried giving ginkoba to a bunch of elderly patients at a nursing home and it thins the blood which for them led to increased strokes!  The best thing to do is eat healthy, drink 8 glasses of water a day, and get a full nights sleep every night.  Also do things like crossword puzzles and stuff when you are sitting around the house.

Depends on how bad of a stroke it was, some ppl loose the use of 1 side of the face, so chewing can be difficult and so have to eat soft foods, eg mash potatoes, soups etc., and some ppl don't, but a healthy diet is a must.  Go see your GP who can put you in touch with a Nutritionist who will help with a good healthy diet.

A stroke, also known as cerebrovascular accident (CVA) occurs when the blood supply to the brain is disturbed in some way. As a result, brain cells are starved of oxygen causing some cells to die and leaving other cells damaged.\n\nThe presentation of the stroke depends on what part of the brain was affected. One site of  common strokes affects the left middle cerebral artery, often resulting in speech deficits and right hemiplegia (paralysis). \n\nI have worked with many people who have suffered from strokes - ranging from very mild to very severe.  Yes - it is possible to recover - like the others said with physical therapy, occupational therapy, and speech therapy (if there are speech, swallowing, or cognitive impairments). It depends on the severity of the stroke and the persons committment to work as to if they will recover.  I have worked with some who give it their all, and others who give up. \n\nGenerally, the most rapid amount of recovery occurs within the first three months.  After that, by the end of the first year after the stroke, the majority of function that returns is done.

take calcium and i also was told to take potassium and it worked wonders, just stay away from all those paint on remidies, you need to do the repairs from the inside out.
