Is there any body else out there

Hi all, i am new to this site. I had a stroke 2 years ago. The stroke has left me with a rare condition called visual agnosia. My sight is fine but i have been left with brain damage and cannot always process what i see. For example, i was trying to shoo a cat off my garden, it was a plant pot. There are many issues i have to contend with and i am wondering if there is anybody out there with the same problem .

My problem is because i have no mobility, speech or sight issues and i look well some people have been negative and sarcastic towards me.

I wouldn't wish this on anybody but if there is anyone out there with this condition it would be good to hear from them.

Marlene

Morning :)

You'll find a lot of people who have had strokes here but even more discussion on the Headway section. A lot of brain issues have similar symptoms.

Come on over! :)
