Will I Be Fully Recover From Massive Stroke ?
Massive Stroke Recovery Timeline I am 29 years old male. I survived the massive stroke after 25 hours leaving by myself. That times I presumebly dead because I have been unconscious for the last 3 weeks. I was in coma for 3 weeks. After that I spent 5 months in hospital. Now it is ten months and I recover but this is slow. I was able walk little by using cane, and my right hand is not moving yet even thought it is 10 months now. My concern is that will I be fully recover ? How long does approximately it used to take full recovery? Thank you for your reply. Sincerely Hnin
