4th yr in. a row I've had severe strokes that have affected all my limbs,last yr it was. my left leg,took me 6 months to walk now out of hospital again 24 hrs ago it's kty left arm. I have been diagnosed with an incurable very rare blood vessel disease that is causing my constant strokes and can only be managed with meds. they can't stop my strokes so I can only do my bit and with help of meds,I love in fear of my next stroke started when I was 46 I'm now 50, so I'm hoping not again next yr I can't cope with anymore,so far three different parts of my brain have been damaged.Than you for this

[@Peta-Hazel-thornhill-Bim]

cannot believe this because i observed a rehab doctor yank a patient's arm in sharp movements and the next day the patient complained of having pain in the limb when there was previously no pain until that happened, i fee like this was done purposely to create a need for medication and botox injections; also observed that here in Canada not much emphasis is placed on functional arm recovery in early treatment they work on leg mobility with much success but neglect the upper limb - they could learn a lot from you guys in Singapore

I tried to encourage my grandmother to do the exercises and now I am the victim of Home Abuse. She desperately want to die but truth is she recovered completely, just the muscle looseness is what make her think that her time is over. She is wasting time and my illiterate family is not listening to me.

[@jeandunmire6323]

The bestbthing is keep her limbs moving even if qssistance is needed. It will help eith circulation and will reduce pain and stiffness. I had a stroke a yearvago and wasnleft with paralysis on my left side, still hwve no use of my leftarm and still unable to walk. Best wishes ror your moms recovery. Having mental support is just as important as physical. You can also get alot of info on the America heart association website. Good luck and keep on working threw 5hat recovery. It's hard and exhqusting and wome dqys wre harder than others but it's worth it to get back to some normality in life.
