Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Hi, I have suffered a CVA in 2008 and a ischemic mild stroke in June 2015. I am experiencing severe pain in my left leg, difficulty swallowing on occasions, become emotional and cry for no reason, continual fatigue and cannot read more than several paragraphs without forgetting what I have just read. I am approaching the 12month period since my second episode. I also experience severe anxiety at times with hopelessness and fear of no future. I have experienced depression during most of the time since 2015. I have been prescribed preventative medication as well as pain relief and antidepressants. I feel the pain medication does not relieve my symptoms any longer and am concerned and fear as a year will soon pass since my last episode that I will have to endure all the above for the rest of my life. Kind thanks Julia. email - YYYY@YYYY
