Stroke (also known as a cerebrovascular accident (CVA) or brain attack) is a medical condition in which poor blood flow to the brain causes cell death. There are two main types of stroke: ischemic, due to lack of blood flow, and hemorrhagic, due to bleeding. Both cause parts of the brain to stop functioning properly. Signs and symptoms of stroke may include an inability to move or feel on one side of the body, problems understanding or speaking, dizziness, or loss of vision to one side. Sig...

flu like symptoms with Aggrenox
I'm just not sure what is going on...I've been on Aggrenox for several weeks, at first I just had a mild headache for a few days and that's about it...and then I came down with a cold & running nose with body aches....it's about 5 days later and I'm still having a sick-like flu feeling...I'm trying to figure out whether it's the Aggrenox or if I'm still infected with the flu virus...all my family at present has the flu... ## It is hard to say, because Aggrenox has been known to cause upper respiratory tract infections, as a side effect in some people that take it, along with coughing, nausea, headache, and dizziness. So, it could be the medication, illness, or even a combination of both. How are you feeling, now? Has there been any change? Have you co...

Not mine and i hav sml kids who could hav got to it can u tell me what it is? ## I have no idea but im telling you now, Ive never heard of any pharmaceutical company that stamps hearts on pills. Most likely its molly or something in that class. ## Hi suzie, Based on my research I think Kevin may be on to something with his guess on molly. I actually came across a photo of round light green pill with an embedded heart logo on one side and a score on the other; which was also identified as such. I'm not sure about the triangle shapes you mentioned, but a few things to take note of in this particular pill are the texture (i.e. chalky?), smell, and even the taste or dimensions if you ...

Medication suggestions, please, for tremors
Question. Anyone have a stroke and a couple months afterward develop a palsy like tremor. Is there a med to treat this? My left side, affected by the stroke, later developed a terrible palsy, for lack of word. This includes the shoulder, shoulder blade left leg. Used to cut hair. Can't anymore. Can barely butter my toast without crushing it. Can't hold a beverage in left hand. Would a parkinsons drug help me? Very disabling. If I had some idea what medication may help control this I could propose such to my primary care doctor. I try, at all cost to stay away from specialists. Too many doctors. The idea that it was not there right after stroke, suggests something happened neurologically after coming home. What drug controls tremors in parkinsons? This is embarrassing, especially...

Stroke - the aftermath
In December 1995, at the age of 42 years, I was victim of a severe stroke which affected my right side totally. As by wonder, I survived the stroke without major implications. But ever since, I produce an abundant amount of saliva in my mouth. Even when taking care when talking to somebody, I still have amounts of saliva coming out of my mouth. Worse is my sleep or rest. Wherever I lay my head to sleep or to rest, a big spot of saliva is left behind. Are there others who suffer from the same symptoms and more important to me, did you find a medication to control the over producing of saliva? TIA ## ck with a dds. for the drug they have to dry a patients mouth so they can operate also ck for chinese herbs ## Hi. Is there any hope to recover from left lenticular stroke?

Neuronerv Vitamin B Complex Benefits
I would like to know if it is fine for a stroke patient to take a Neuronerv vitamin B1 + B6 + B12? ## Has their doctor told them to take it?

The NIH lists the typical side effects as possibly including nausea, diarrhea, and insomnia, due to its potency. Are there any questions?
