I found a very interesting 30 minute video by a doctor on cerebellar strokes on the enable me site. To access it click Resources, then click on I’m new to stroke, then click on Types of Strokes, then scroll down to videos and the first video is titled ‘Cerebellar Stroke.
what type of stroke , where an artery is blocked or where an artery explodes and bleeds?
there is more than a basic rule , some people are fine , some have a facial sign , some lose control of there leg and a clawed up hand or like me lost feeling to there whole rightside and right side of face like me.
Hi Garry,
I have been incredibly lucky in terms of stroke if you could call it that as my life and my wife’s life has changed as a result of the stroke. My neck arteries that provide blood to the cerebellum are blocked with plaque (cholesterol) and resulted in a cerebellum stroke.
My stroke was hard to diagnose as it presented as vertigo, even though I had a CAT scan initially. Like you I found the video on sensory overload helpful and was interested in your comment about bracelets on Bigbang. Is the bracelet waterproof as I think I should wear identification about my heath condition when I am out. Also is the bracelet waterproof for example could it tolerate being immersed in water while swimming in a public pool.
Best wishes
Ian
