Sorry Chm to hear the same happened to you. I was not even admitted to Hospital after my GP called them to inform I've suffered 2 strokes. It leaves an uncomfortable feeling knowing the place you go to seek help for medical health, lets you down. Sorry the same has happened to you, thankfully I have a wonderful GP who listens and refers me to anywhere I feel might help in my recovery. Enableme is a wonderful source of information and as Jude above mentioned please reach out to them with any questions you might have they are fountain of knowledge. Another group I have found comfort and support from is on facebook, a group called Australian Stoke Survivors, very supportive and understanding group of people who have been through the same or similar. Its where I have found out what I might need to help start my rehab journey. Hope you have a smooth recovery <3
