Dear
Welcome to HCM
We understand your concerns

I went through your details. Anxiety, confusion and memory problems after stroke comes under the jurisdiction of neurologist. But the decision making authority is the physician who treats your husband. He may be suspecting something else according to the age of your husband. You did not mention the age here. Even stroke could have been triggered due to some derangement problem neurologically. Work with your doctor for correct treatment.
