my 55 yr old hubby had a stroke in the right rear paritial...on New Years Eve morning, has been recovering very very well...about 90% back to normal, we both had bad flu starting 1 wk ago...bad fever & cough, he says he has had mild fever most of the last few days as well. His biggest problem right now is pain in outter front thighs, when walking short distances, they 'burn' like he had worked out. He is & has remained very active, walking at minimum 1-2 ml per day, he drives cement mixer & goes up/down ladders & has been working 2 or 3 days per wk for the last 2 months. cheryl
