Hey I had an urgent question, so if you do a spasticity reduction procedure will that post-op increase the chance of restoring function to the hand and arm? Cause isnt the reason stroke patients don’t wiggle and voluntarily move our effected limbs properly is because of lower blood circulation to the extremity, nerve problems and spasticity?? So if you fix spasticity isn’t all that’s left to fix is blood circulation??

if you were a doctor you would know that spasticity is not a real fucking word and is highly offensive. So many other words that arent offensive you can use but your fucking name is Gooch so…….dont get me started
Does anyone have ideas about how much Botox is our of pocket. I have Kaiser and the doctor refuses to give Botox. The baclofen isn’t really working for me. I do have some movement in my arm but it’s getting harder and harder to move it due to spasticity. My ot massages me for 45 minutes before I can even start trying to move it. I’m only 33 years old and I just had a baby. I’m desperate to try any remedies to help with my recovery
your videos are amazing. Keep up the great work.
While searching, I came across one more video on stroke- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i5iCUIjtVcM – The video briefly describes the existing problem of stroke treatments and highlights the upcoming drugs that could provide relief to stroke patients. I found it very helpful and informative. Do watch it!

I recommend "Stronger After Stroke" a book by Peter Levine. Fortunately I recovered or I am still recovering from stroke before reading the book. This book explained how the brain can grow new neurons and even repair damaged ones. I need to work on strength but I am completely functional on both sides. I think what helped me was that while I laid in the hospital, I visualized myself walking. When it came to physical therapy, my left leg was so heavy that I could not stand. But on the second day of therapy which was several days later I stood up. Used a walker for about a week then a cane for a couple weeks and then no cane. They followed me walking with a wheelchair so I could take breaks. Now I have physical therapy at home. So if you know someone who had a stroke, let them know that if the can think, they can recover.
Thank you!
