So let me remind you " be patient". Great that your feet and legs feel normal! Each day brings a wonderful progress.

Thanks Yvonne! I haven't forgotten that fast though.

Jamie: your recovery travels along at a wonderful pace. And to finally be able to relax and rest without the "pea" issues. That alone has helped move you along so quickly.

Isn't is amazing when oxygen and good blood flow is returned to wanting areas. It is almost like your legs are having a party - Yahoo, someone brought the snacks! And for that I know you are thankful - nothing was too far gone to recover.

However, those muscles have worked at half or even less speed for a long period and they need time to learn to work at full speed again. Your body will tell you. It is really OK to be tired, you must not get to exhaustion.

You know I too am on board for the reminding. Great news! Debbie

Good for you Jamie that you are feeling better as for me I'm still in that painful stage where my left side is so painful to be paralyzed for so long!! I know it's a slow and long process to recover from a stroke of any kind!!

The thing I see in my case is age has it's place so as my body get better from the stroke all the elements of age sits in making me feel more pains from arthritis as well as from the stroke but I survived this long already so I'm not complaining one bit!!!!

That is awesome that the procedure went as planned and you have seen allot of improvement from the past year and your legs are getting the blood supply they need! I would feel the same way about not being patient! But maybe leave the PT advice up to the experts. : )

so glad to have you back - i have missed your input !!! i hope this all works out for the very best !!
