Hi Phil
That's real bad luck. I thought all the medication was helping to avoid a repetition.
My brother had his first stroke at 59, and six months on he is in fine fettle. On blood thiners and minimum exertion but now allowed to fly and drive again.
I do hope you make a swift full recovery and get back to normal asap
So sorry to hear this but sending positive vibes for a swift recovery and hope that you will be able to get away in your van soon for a bit of relaxation.
