Suggest Treatment For Paraplegia On The Left-side With Slurred Speech
My mother in law had two mini strokes and has left side arm paralysis and slurred speech and left leg lacking strength and not able to walk without assistance. How would you treat going forward? Does she need a cardiologist or a medication in prevention of another stroke? Right now she is at rehab facility for occupational and physical therapy and only has a PCP.
