Hi I had my stroke just 7 weeks ago. They said I had a brain bleed put down to taking Warfrin for 20 years. I was lucky and was left with walking problems and slurred speech. I am being helped by Stroke People. Who are great people. I am going to drive my car again.

Hi my name is Brenda. Glad to read your on the mend. My stroke in 2014 was a blood clot down left hand side. Getting better but still struggling with my left shoulder as i fell again and broke my hip dislocated my left shoulder. I too hope to drive again once my shoulder is fixed. As we have an automatic car not being able to use my left leg dosent matter as i joke you only need your right one to operate the pedals.

Hi.

It's great to have you on board.

I had my stroke in 1998 at the age off 32.

Please let me know if I can offer you some help??

Hi Steve,

My name is Kathy and I've just possibly had my first TIA at 39. It happened 3 days ago & I have no real after effect. The neurologist put me on aspirin as a preventive & 2 out of 3 of my scans show no signs of an episode. Naturally I'm freaked out. Any advice?
