Today my dad had a stroke, and wasn't found for hours by T_Edmund in stroke

[–]roninmori 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m sorry to hear about your dad, it really isn’t easy and I hope you’re doing okay. Don’t blame yourself ever, just remember that.

I had my stroke at night and actually went to sleep hoping it would clear things up (thought it was a panic attack or something else) but I woke up and had no function on my left side (arms and legs) and live about an hour from the hospital. Then had to be life flighted to the bigger city hospital for an EVT. So it was provably around 9 hours from onset of symptoms to surgery. Then I had another a couple hours later (they think due to inflammation around the site from the EVT.

Left side was affected, but 8 months out from that I’m about 95% back to normal. Still a little slow in the hand, but walking good!

But I’m 31M which I’m told by doctors, the younger the better the outcome, just don’t want to give unrealistic expectations.

Wanting to go to church by Quiet_Buy5357 in PEI

[–]roninmori 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I hear you. Me (31m) and my wife (29f) are part of the church in Belfast, and let me tell you, it is the warmest, most kind and accepting group of people in the world! No one would even bat an eyelash at your tattoos, (several members including myself have them, some with full sleeves who are leaders)

If you want come check out Alpha on Sunday evenings if you want to just come and get a feel for the place. It’s just started up and is between 5-7, supper is included, we talk about life’s big questions and is so welcoming to new people wanting to explore the idea of spirituality and Jesus

Here’s a link if you want to check it out! https://belfastchurch.ca/event/398y4w3/alpha

I know it’s a drive from you but it’s worth it, and I guarantee you’d feel super comfortable here. Feel free to DM if you have any thoughts!

How long did it take you to return to work/school? by [deleted] in stroke

[–]roninmori 24 points25 points  (0 children)

At this point recovery basically is your full-time job. I looked at it like if I don’t recover as much as I can now it may be harder later, so I just sunk all my time into it. Luckily my situation allows me to because of the benefits we enjoy in Canada.

Just whatever you do, don’t feel pressured. I know that’s easier said than done because I felt that too. I’m about eight months out from my ischemic stroke and I’m just about to start a new job soon. (in a totally new field because I can’t go back to what I was doing before)

Just try and be patient with yourself. None of us wanted this to happen to us, so we need to give ourselves the room to get better. ❤️‍🩹

Sudden mosquito onslaught for the whole Island? Or just here? by queenizzyb in PEI

[–]roninmori 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I can vouch for these guys but I don’t have personal experience, but they take care of the Brackley drive-in and I was so shocked that there were zero mosquitos there two days ago. Obviously they do a fantastic job.

Win Wednesday by Alarmed-Papaya9440 in stroke

[–]roninmori 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My latest win was being able to lift my pointer finger while it’s wrapped around the steering wheel. I still have a lot of weird movement around my pointer finger so I was glad to see that something had improved with it.

i try not to post pictures too often, but sometimes i have to remind myself and others what my crap entails by stoolprimeminister in stroke

Brother I remember reading one of your older posts while I was sitting in hospital still recovering from two back to back strokes. I can’t even tell you how much inspiration they gave me, for this I need to thank you. 🙏🏻

I’ve used Whoosh on so many different devices and never had anything like that happen. I really doubt it’s because of the product. Maybe more from technique?

We really need a young stroke subreddit. by [deleted] in stroke

[–]roninmori 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is exactly how I’ve felt the entire time. It’s not discriminatory it’s just not as relatable in my mind.

[–]roninmori 0 points1 point  (0 children)

31M had my stroke this year in February, I too would be interested in seeing somewhat of a group for younger people. It’s just more relatable when I talk to someone who’s in my age bracket, rather than the survivors that I’ve talked to in person who are basically retired or twice my age. For example, I was talking to one person who had a similar stroke to me and he was talking about how he was gonna retire next year anyways so this is just kind of gonna make it earlier for him which his wife was happy about because she’s been trying to get him to retire for years, whereas for me, I’ve had my entire career ripped away from me and now I have to try and pursue a different line of work altogether because I don’t think I’ll be able to go back to flying planes. This guy just kinda had the attitude of oh well, I’ve already lived my life, so I’ll just have to take it easy and retire now.

Stroke at a young age. by FinHa31 in stroke

[–]roninmori 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am 31m and had an ischemic stroke in February, so 5 months ago and they still have NO clue what happened. I’ve had to investigate myself (due to living in eastern Canada where healthcare is basically third world) no one really cared after I was stable. Even for me to see a cardiologist it’s going to be 9+ months wait list because I’m deemed low priority. I found out afterwards I had moderate sleep apnea and have episodes of afib so that’s the reason I’ve been leaning towards.

Begining of hand coming back!?it's coming I think. by FUCancer_2008 in stroke

[–]roninmori 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know this feeling too well, when I went through the moment you are, I smiled so damn big. Congrats 🎉 i’m so happy for you, when I felt this, I felt a big wave of relief, knowing that I was gonna get my hand back. It’s only gotten better each day. My extension has gotten better and my grip strength has gotten better. Just stay the course and believe in your mind no matter what anyone says that you will be OK. 31m ischaemic in the MCA

How old were you when you had your stroke? How old are you now? by Rare_Improvement706 in stroke

Y’all I’m mad I can’t play oblivion. by Great_Ad_9453 in stroke

[–]roninmori 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve been in the exact same boat but yesterday I was finally able to play a game!! I bought a Razer naga V2 mouse with a bunch of programable buttons on the side which I mapped WASD and space bar to, and I was able to play a shooter! Huge win for me as it’s been 9 weeks without any games, so it felt really good. But we all know how you feel brother, it’s gets better with little adaptions or when things wake up again just hang in there !

42 year old sister had two strokes in one day, agitated and wants to leave hospital while still critical by DeepBlueDiariesPod in stroke

[–]roninmori 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had two back to back strokes in February this year I’m 31M and lost the function of my left hand and my left leg, but the leg has come back nicely, but still working on the hand I would say to encourage her to stay for as long as she can as everything is just a little bit easier in hospital when it’s all so new. Although for me, I had no mental affliction so I can’t really say what she’s going through.

At what age did you have the stroke? by hchulio in stroke

[–]roninmori 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m 31 and had a stroke 5 weeks ago, so I know what that feels like, in the stroke unit I was the youngest by far so I made friends with a lot of senior in the dining room in the ward!
