I thought I had a mini-stroke last December, but now I think it was my leg and arm falling asleep due to sitting too long at the computer. (Too much Freeping!)
Did your fatigue, memory and spelling problems start just after the stroke — was the difference immediate and noticeable by others? There are other things that can cause fatigue and memory problems, depression for one. Having a stroke might make one depressed and distracted, for certain. The symptoms you mentioned don’t necessarily have to have come from the stroke.
Have you seen a stroke specialist? The average doctor isn’t qualified to determine if your symptoms have been caused by the stroke. You need to get in to see someone with a lot of experience with strokes.
You need to give your body the right nutrition it needs to heal. Health food stores have “green” blends of concentrated, dried organic vegetables. You get this stuff — it looks and tastes like freshly mowed grass — and you add it to orange juice and swallow it down. It does WONDERS for your health and energy level. It’s like mega-mega-nutrition in one glass. It would do you a lot of good and may give your body what it needs to heal.
If I don’t like what the neurologist says, I’ll see a stroke specialist. Thank you for the great advice.
