I'm 17 years old and finally made it to my senior year, only to be set back by a stroke! Last month, I suffered an acute ischemic stroke in 3 places in my brain. The doctors are still not sure what caused it, with no finding's of blood clots anywhere. I'm having a heart catheterization on September 19 of this month to close the PFO in my heart. The doctors say that I really recovered to my fullest all by myself very quickly. I was turned away by the physical therapist because he said there was nothing he could do!
I still have some double vision, trouble with balance, and weakness in my right side (especially left arm, hand, fingers.)
I know it hasn't even been a month, and I am very fortunate. But will this all go away? Does anyone know any good exercises for me to do? Thanks
