Hi Greg that's good your mum and dad help you ,having the up and down days are so normal for us after a stroke,but it will get better when you get used to the new you..some days it's going to be so frustrating and you will ask yourself why me !I have asked myself that question on many occasions..I've got to have my loop recorder fitted tomorrow just to see if I flip into AF...anyway Gregg try and stay positive and your brain will be a happy one ..pippy x
