Continued inflammation post stroke is a major reason why recovery is slow but doesn’t seem to get mentioned in mainstream medicine ,perispinal Etanercept use has had almost miracle like results for stroke and other brain injuries but its release to the public is a mystery

My mum has pain on her entire right side, constantly. There is no area that worse than another, she is always massaging her abdomen and leg. She is not really keeping up with physiotherapy and she has moderate depression. Her blood pressure is well controlled but, she can't really exercise at home because of the pain. She is always tired. Please, how do I help her?

Hello. Your mom needs to see her doctor asap and get a referral to a neurologist for the pain, neuropsychology for adjustment to chronic illness, and maybe a psychiatrist for management of depression. The doctor needs to hear that pain and depression are affecting her ability to do daily activities, including the rehab for her stroke. It's a vicious cycle, pain and depression are huge barriers to moving your body and not moving your body is horrible for pain and depression. You can tell your mom that what she is experiencing is normal and that we only have to take one step at a time; make the appointment. With your help, she just needs to say "I need help" and then the medical team can take it from there. We hope this is helpful. Good luck.

While I love the ASF it would be nice if your digital marketing materials included young ppl (I’m a young stroke survivor) and as strokes rise in young ppl it would be nice to see myself represented 😅 my concerns including typing, weight lifting, stretch exercises as I work from home

how to rest and then rehab the "bad" limb when you get joint pain from overuse. just for example:my arm tries to curl daytime. ......... once or 2x year elbow hurts for few weeks. i dont want to run to dr. i've been using my stretchy knee brace to 'rest' the arm during the day, and i sleep with it to help alleviate the curling/tightening that happens at night. idk if i should be exercising to keep it stronger, or stretching, or what to avoid the recurring issue if possible. *i m 7yrs out from stroke so this not new symptom. just part of everyday life i would like to make a little easier. Thank you!

I'm in UK> I had a benign tumour removed from the left occipital lobe of my brain 11 months ago. I have a slight loss of right peripheral vision ( i thought this was improving but have lately became more aware of it) and problems with many prints. This is very interesting as I wasn;t' given much guidance apart from 2being directed online exercises. I am not allowed to drive. I am a musician and find that I cannot process reading music as fast as I need.

I had a stroke 1 1/2 yrs ago. I tried Cymbalta first. Felt it didn't help. Tried 10 other meds. All failed. So back to Cymbalta. It helps the PAIN, buy worsens SPASTICITY. Any suggestions on what helps with spasticity would be appreciated.

I am a college student at a very competitive university. I met a girl we will call Ale here for obvious reasons. She reached out to me first on a dating app where she had her age set to 21, which I didn’t know was 19 unit three months in when we first met. On my first visit, I witnessed physical abuse of her brother (who also drinks at 12yo) by her parents. This was followed by a talk with her mother on the way to the airport where I was forced to nod along as Ale remained quiet. After six months, her mother went through our message chain because she didn’t trust me, the reason became apparent soon after: there was an adult guardianship over Ale that her parents profited from. She was never informed of what the guardianship was during the process, and never represented by a lawyer or advocate, only her parents were. When I confronted her mother about taking screenshots of a chat that had both written poetry and romantic images, she said that I wasn’t family and if I didn’t like it, I could get off Ales team. We then dated for a total of almost ten months, becoming engaged with her parents consent. Over this time, she confided in me that her parents allowed her to be molested by someone more than four years older than her when she was only 13. They then made her maintain a relationship with the person until she met me and I wouldn’t accept it. They also allowed her to be recurrently sexually assaulted by another person, not letting her contact proper authorities, because the abuser was the son of her fathers boss. When they discovered she was trying to post a plea to social media begging for help contacting her judge and reporting the abuse and neglect, they took her phone access, which she pays for, and she hasn’t had it in more than ten days. I haven’t slept in a long time over this, I have direct texts from her documenting they hurt her for speaking up and saying she was afraid to call for help. I have been bounced around a hundred phone lines in the last ten days, and I’m begging for advice on who can help or anyone to volunteer to help me enter a filing with the court I found out oversees the guardianship, as they said I needed to enter it as a filing to be heard at all. She lives in Indiana and I’m in colorado, I will not give up no matter what, but I need someone’s help to make any progress now

In May of 2018, I was experiencing headaches and blurry vision. I attended a concert (morning, afternoon, evening… hot, hot, and hot… above 103OF… passing out) and suffered a HEAT STROKE. The following week my headaches and blurry vision got worse. I suffered THREE STROKES that week. I was diagnosed with a left internal carotid artery occlusion, and I was in the hospital for 2 months. I could have lost my life, but thankfully I am here today! When I got home, I could not walk or talk. I am continuing to heal and improve.

Thank you so much! This video was extremely informative! I found out I had a stroke at some point, most likely when I had toxins and mold toxicity from breast implants and a moldy condo (although it was gorgeous, I was “sitting in a puddle”). I became extremely fatigued and had a sleep study done. This sleep specialist did not do an MRI, and I was immediately diagnosed with severe sleep apnea and severe narcolepsy (I was falling asleep and dreaming while I was on the expressway and during other inappropriate times.). I moved, but began feeling so fatigued again with narcolepsy symptoms and I’m afraid to drive during the afternoons. I had another sleep study done by a neurologist, with an MRI and he told me I had had a stroke. He wants me to see a psychiatrist, but I don’t know why. I’ve called 3 times and no one will tell me (not a good staff!). Any ideas? I don’t even know what to tell this psychiatrist! Also, my son has had meningitis at age 7 and a TBI as a teen, with subarachnoid hemorrhaging. We both have these symptoms to different degrees. I’m concerned about this. Thank you!!!

Thank you for this. My 2 cents as a survivor in 2014 that left me with numbness and weakness on my whole side, and a dead temporal lobe, is this: -Depression, yes, before and after, in my case a "friend" advised me to mourn the person I was, because she was "dead" and I was a "new clean slate!" Don't ever do that, identity is so huge for suvivors that it's a miracle I stuck around through that. -Anxiety, Definitely because in my experience, no matter what kind of stroke you had, rehab people may tell you you WILL have another stroke, and soon. (-Catestrophic Reaction) Certain types, likely yes. Mine, due to a PFO, no because with blood-thinners I may or may not ever have another. So I was afraid to move wrong for years after. -Apathy, BIG. most of my recovery issues now are caring about, and performing, things I was good at before. Problem-solving, hobbies, music, I lost a lot. It comes back by tiny increments, but it takes time. I'm over 8 yrs post, and I'm still having too many days where I just don't care about life. We need to push therapy for suicidal thoughts and ideation for years post stroke because it's always in my head somewhere. -PBA, I have huge trouble regulating emotions, and having always been a cryer, now add new sensory overwhelm and overload, trouble with memory and attention span, life can be a mess with or without a PBA diagnosis, in fact I was told I don't have it. Still there needs to be help with life skills down the road with those like me. In fact my healing resonated more with TBI healing advice than TIA advice because TIA are treated with so little import. It's assumed that if I can walk and talk alright, I'm all good. I'm not.

Wow! I just read this and I had a stroke that I was unaware of in 2014! The apathy and motivation are horrible! I used to be so ch a go-getter, and now I decide to take days off because I’m overwhelmed and don’t care. I’m also the caregiver to my adult son, who has all these symptoms from meningitis and several severe TBIs. He does nothing to help me, and is extremely critical, negative, and defiant. I can’t wait for his father and him to life out because my stress level is ver the top! It’s been 2 1/2 years since they moved in because of mold, and my ex’s procrastination!! The best of luck to you! I had no idea these symptoms were from the stroke❣️🙏🌷

I have wernickes aphasia. From a car accident. Sometimes I DO make sense but my words are NOY the message I mean. When you are talking to someone with Wernickes aphasia PLEASE repeat back and ask “is that what you mean” because I hate being corr3cted when I don’t know I said it wrong. 8 don’t want to talk because people don’t understand or they laugh. I’m not stupid. A distracted driver took my voice and freedom from me. Don’t correct me because I didn’t know my words were wrong, my brain heard my words different. Asking if that’s what I mean let’s me fix it and not feel dumb. This is a living hell trapped with my voice inside and people who don’t understand me but I don’t know how to help them know.
