Hello,
Thanks for posting your query.
After CVA if she is having only a right sided weakness of her body it suggests that the affection of neurons is mild and she will improve gradually over 4-6 weeks.
Physical therapists and occupational therapists can help her in regaining the full muscle strength early.
Regarding the reports, you have a feature to upload the reports / image by yourself at the right side of the query page, please utilize that so that I can answer your queries better.
Taking the opinion of a specialist neurologist- an MD, DM will be best for her.
Regarding the best neurologist in Dubai, I am sorry I am not aware of as I am in India.
Hope this answers your query. I will be glad to answer the follow up queries that you have.
Please accept my answer in case you do not have further queries.
Wishing you good health.
Regards.
Dr. Rakhi Tayal.
