My granddad got a stroke..i'm concerned...? |
My granddad is around 91 and he suffered from a stroke a couple of days ago...they told us he couldn't move his right hand all of a sudden and he'd started to sweat profusely as well...they took him to the doctor who checked everything and said he's fine. He can do stuff with his right hand now but I'm kinda worried. He has had no major health problems up until now. His heart and everything is working just fine(he suffers from a urinary tract problem, though). Well, it's difficult to say anything specific without knowing more about your grandfather, but if he had a focal neurological defect (in this case, he couldn't move his right hand, although that's fairly uncommon if he was able to move the arm and leg fine) which resolved completely in less than 24 hours, even if a complete workup (including a brain MRI if they did one) was negative, he could have had what's called a TIA - which is like a stroke, but completely reversible in a short period of time. Although if it was really just his hand it may be a more local phenomenon rather than a stroke (which affects the brain) i dont know anything but all you need to do is pray thats all that can help you know cast your problems on jesus if it helps i promise that i will pray for him too but if it gets any more seirious then you should ask him if hes saved cause thats really important evan if it is not serious then still ask him if hes saved .dont forget to pray god cares about and he knows wats gonna happen |

Cannot tell you the prognosis well in advance, as much depends on age and underlying causes, amount of brain tissue damaged and allied illness e.g diabetes. ...heart attack is when blood flow is restricted from passing through the heart, often due to excess cholesterol built up in the arteries.
