My husband is extremly weak. He is diabetic, had knee replacement a month ago and had a stroke in oct. The knee is healed up. He is having some pain but going to rehab but we can t seem to get anything to help with the strength. He is still using a walker. The dr says the stroke was very mild. Please help.
