Since I started my second month I have noticed a significant change
I am writing to give you an update on my progress. I have seen changes in my condition during the second month which I want to share with you.
Before my taking the treatment I had tremendous spasticity on my my leg but even more in my hand. It was always clenched like a fist and I couldn’t grab anything with it. My ankle also was inverted and this made it hard to walk. My toes also curled under my foot which was very painful.
Since I started my second month I have noticed a significant change in my arm. My gross movement is back as well as my coordination and control. The hand is beginning to loosen whereby I can wrap my fingers around a cup or glass. I use my other hand for added support still but my fingers don’t tighten around it now as they used to.
It’s not 100% yet but it’s slowly coming back.
As far as my leg is concerned I have more strength overall and my sensation is a little bit better, but I haven’t taken off the brace yet. As I get more progress I’ll attempt it down the line.
I hope I continue to progress in the third month as well.
Thank you very much for your assistance and providing stroke survivors the support they need.
Best regards,
Mary
