Use the labels in the right column to find what you want. Or you can go thru them one by one, there are only 29,372 posts. Searching is done in the search box in upper left corner. I blog on anything to do with stroke. DO NOT DO ANYTHING SUGGESTED HERE AS I AM NOT MEDICALLY TRAINED, YOUR DOCTOR IS, LISTEN TO THEM. BUT I BET THEY DON'T KNOW HOW TO GET YOU 100% RECOVERED. I DON'T EITHER BUT HAVE PLENTY OF QUESTIONS FOR YOUR DOCTOR TO ANSWER.

Learned helplessness
Is your doctor preparing you to be helpless in your stroke recovery? Is she using the comment 'All strokes are different, all stroke recoveries are different'? I can easily see that comment shutting down all hope of ever recovering. Along with no stroke rehab protocols you are basically screwed. I somehow managed to figure out that whatever recovery I wanted I would have to do all the work. This was probably helped by my ex-wife saying to me 'you are on your own'. She was a PT and even though my PTs tried to involve her in helping do some exercises it quickly became obvious that there would be nothing forthcoming there. I really should thank her for setting the stage for my recovery through my own hard work.
