Since one year suffering from ischemic stroke walking slowly with stick. - #9116

Hi Syed Ibrahim Basha, I’m sorry to hear about your challenges after the ischemic stroke. You’ve shown great resilience by continuing your recovery, and I’ll try to guide you with some advice on managing your symptoms better. For Your Current Symptoms: 1. Right-Side Weakness (Leg and Hand): • Continue any physiotherapy you’re doing, as it is crucial for improving hand and leg function. Regular exercises targeting motor control, balance, and strength can help with mobility over time. • Occupational therapy may also improve fine motor skills (like finger movements). 2. Nausea and Eating Issues: • Since rice is causing discomfort, continue with light, digestible meals (e.g., idli, upma, or dalia). • Stay hydrated and have smaller, frequent meals. Ginger tea or antacid medications (like pantoprazole) may help if nausea is related to acidity. • Consult your doctor if nausea persists, as it may be a side effect of stroke medications. Treatment Suggestions: • Regular Follow-Ups: Keep up with your neurologist for any adjustments in medication (like anticoagulants or anti-platelet drugs). • Rehabilitation: Continue physiotherapy and explore hand exercises to improve wrist and finger function. • Blood Pressure & Sugar Control: Monitor these closely, as they’re critical for preventing further strokes. You’ve come a long way, and with continued effort, rehabilitation, and medical care, things can improve. Stay strong!
