Post stroke fatigue has been one of the most difficult things to deal with since I had a stroke in 2015 it’s definitely debilitating 😢
Boy this really hit home. I had a stroke seven years ago, and have been tired ever since. Very good video!
Hi. I just wanted to let you know that I found your video extremely useful. I am 46, and about six months ago I had a minor ischaemic stroke. I had no idea about Post Stroke Fatigue, they didn't tell me. I'm more at risk from it because I suffer from depression anyway, and have done for 20 years. I also live in the UK and get S.A.D. at this time of year too. I'm suffering from fatigue as we speak. But your video has helped me to at least make some sense of what is happening to me. Thank you.
Happy you found my channel. Even more happy that I was able to help you with some information and insight. I have a video on Post Stroke Anxiety and Post Stroke Depression. If there is anything you would like me to cover as a topic just ask.
I do fairly well but I know my limits; the left leg will shut down first so I work to find a safe place before the shutdown.
I wondered why the sudden fatigue and weakness and this video and others showed me it was not muscle but rather Neuro.
This really hit home I relate to all you said . It really made me feel better .
You make so much sense
My stroke was August this past year 2023…fatigue is the worst! Thanks for your video…all very well said. 🕊️
I have it so bad at approx 3 years that my entire left side shuts down and my speech sounds like I am drunk.. For me it is not just tired I hit a literal wall with no way forward.
I also suffer from it...i hate it, I also hate when people or doctors ask what's wrong... I'm like fuck I don't know, you tell me your the doctor.
Having have a seriously bad subdural hematoma. You explained my experience exactly... Thank you for posting . I'm gonna share with my fam and friends.
Great video. Thank you very much.
8 years post and still severe fatigue
It's been a cupel of years and I still have psf some days are weres than others
Did you lose your spelling skills? Scrabble may help your recovery.
I hate it. Had a stroke about 10 month ago. Tired most of the time. Some times are worse, and appear out of nowhere. I have regained more function than I though I would, but I don't really enjoy much that I used to. That's the worst. I used to enjoy camping, but I get tired just thinking about it.
I am approaching six months since my stroke. I still have periods of fatigue. Attempting to continue to breach the obstacle. I started a new medication that is helping.
Happy you found the Channel, hope you are enjoying it.
What is the medication, and what does it do for you?
I have been using CBD oil, I will do a video on it.
My stroke feb 2 this year. I’ve made good progress walking bending arm speech still slurs.i g can tired easy without doing much I’m afraid I’ll get depressed
is post stroke fatigue purely tiredness? or can it be a combination of tiredness, feeling weak, having brain fog,a felling like your going to blackout etc?they are all different symptoms.
That is a great question, give me a couple of days and I will put up a video.
@@StrokeAssaulter i had a stroke in November last year.. I'm a 43 year old male in Dublin Ireland.I was told first it was a TIA and then after it was a stroke because the symptoms were lasting so long. My speech and limbs are fine, but as soon as I had the stroke my balance was knocked out of kilter.Whats baffling me and the doctors to a degree is why I keep getting so faint.For the first three months I couldn't walk more than 10 feet because of this. This symptom improved by about 60% over the last 4 weeks but i feel the last 10 days likes its getting worse. I'm waking in the morning feeling like I'm drugged and I need more sleep. I'm sleeping 12 hours and feel worse every time I go back to sleep.When i get up I feel quite week ,my head is mussy and I still feel tired.-I had some of these symptoms weeks before the stroke but they seem worse sine the stroke. I'm being told they are unrelated. I'm super frustrated and down, as there seems to be no answer- I've had every blood test and heart scan done too.Excuse the long message.
@@sbirrito my name is Michael, historically my family is from County Cork. I can only imagine how difficult that must be.
Just curious have you had a contrast MRI or CT of the brain since your stroke??
@@StrokeAssaulter Hi Michael.how are you?I'm doing a bit better today.I had a regular MRI without contrast and I had a ct with contrast in January, as I was back in hospital then as my symptoms were so severe.They said the tear in my vertebral artery was healing compared to how it was in November.
@@StrokeAssaulterim from cork myself
thanks for this, I thought it was just me. what can I do about it ?
Would like toknow what does a crash do to a stroke survivor
Does it end??? Because this is maddening!!
Yes the fatigue after a stroke is frustrating. In my case it does get better. To be honest I still have issues with Post Stroke Fatigue at times.
I did an update video about how my fatigue as progressed. czcams.com/video/Z2jkrp_zGTQ/video.html
