Hi Avashna I am going to try and get him to see a psychologist as he also suffered a stroke 4 years after my stroke and because I knew the signs when he got back from work and I saw the drooping face I first got him to take an aspirin then took him to the hospital he was there for 4  days only and it wasn’t a major stroke his artery on the neck had a plaque that had made the flow of blood to the brain difficult and the doctor said that me administering aspirin may has saved his life by thinning the blood and allowing it to flow easily to the brain. He fortunately didn’t need any physical therapy as he was okay a few days later and went back to work after a week.
