Stroke with abnormal side effects
In any case, without knowing the cause of the stroke, there is no specific treatment other than keeping a person safe and calm. What many people frequently find disturbing is that the best means of doing so in extreme cases is the use of medications to reduce agitation, and sometimes restraints. If you have not seen this done, it is even more disturbing than it sounds. Restraints are overused in many circumstances, but they are also underused in many, and there have been studies suggesting that in severe agitation, it is the best way of preventing harm or further injury.
In short, nothing that has happened so far sounds terribly uncommon or unreasonable, with the exception that you have not been given any of this information so far. Unfortunately, these days education and information is hard to come by from physicians, but it is still supposed to be part of their job.
Especially with the seriousness of your uncles condition, make a habit of writing down important questions, let your doctor know at the beginning of a meeting, and do not let him go until you are satisfied he has tried to answer them. Pin them down on specifics--don't let them give you vague or non-answers, and make sure they know it's okay to say "I don't know."
I will keep your uncle and your family in my thoughts and hope for a speedy recovery.
As always, discuss these and any questions with your physician.
wow you would think they would of gave him something to relax and get the MRI done,with those symptoms they should be doing a serious of tests,,you don;t have to be paralyzed on 1 side all the times with strokes,,,,they should of gave him some blood thinner for blood clots as they do to patients who have blood clots or a stroke ' so the clots won;t travel to the lungs,,,,good luck to your uncle and thanks for looking and being there for him in his times of need,,,,,.,.,.,.
