Limited role....: There are no medications which can repair or restore damaged brain tissue. Stimulant medications can help if there are issues with alertness or early fatigue. This should be discussed with your neurologist or physiatrist.

Question 3

is it true that by going to the chiropractor it can cause me to have a stroke? after i went for my first session no feel like my nerves are insane

Accepted Answer

Extremely rare : Its usually reported at a rate of one in a million, usually involving an elderly person who has arteriosclerosis receiving a high thrust neck adjustment. Chance of a serious complication by taking an Aspirin or other over-the-counter pain medications is higher than a stroke from an adjustment. As your regular doctor to refer you to one he feels comfortable with. Feel better.

Question 4

sometimes i feel my back head or top light tingling. not in my face, is a mini stroke or just pinch nerves ?

Accepted Answer

Occipital Neuralgia: Sounds like occipital neuralgia, so i would not be concerned with a mini-stroke.  But to be sure you should be seen your doctor for further evaluation.  The occipital nerves exit from the skull in the back of the head and then travel to the top of the head and end close to the forehead area, so you could have altered sensation or the tingling you described in these areas.

Question 5

ceribela antaxia stroke my nerves all over are bad muscles week numbness feet shoulder hands?

Accepted Answer

Neurological Symptom: It sounds like you have developed new, acute neurological symptoms which may be related to, your original lesion, or represent a new focus. Bilateral symptoms are a bit unusual for a stroke, which is usually one-sided, but midline lesions or infectious and degenerative disorders can also be the culprit. Either way, you should seek evaluation immediately.

Question 6

Question 7

Question 8

my mother is 70 yrs old, she had a stroke 3yrs ago, sometimes she cool but sometimes @ night her legs an feet go numb. like poor curculation in them an it gets painful. is there anything she can do for that? prob nerves are damaged from the stroke

Accepted Answer

Take her: To the doctor for an evaluation. Usually, in a stroke one side of the body is affected not both. You mention she is symptomatic on both sides. You also question whether there is poor circulation - while this is a possibility it too should be examined. If someone has circulation tissues that are so bad they are causing numbness the concern is one can develop gangrene. Let her see her internist.

Question 9

which body systems are affected by a stroke?

Accepted Answer

Neuro: A stroke affects your brain and the nervous system.  YOur nervous system controls a lot, from breathing, to heart rate, but mainly a stroke reveals itself through a muscle or sensation defect.

Question 10

which part of the body is affected by a stroke?

Accepted Answer

Stroke affects brain: A stroke most often affects the brain.  It is possible it could affect the spinal cord also.

Sometimes an alternate condition named "heat stroke" is considered, this is an entirely different condition that affects fluid and electrolyte balances in the blood stream, muscles and the body's organs.
