Has anyone ever had stroke symptoms (hard to understand speech, tipsy balance, illegible

handwriting, trouble swallowing) get better without therapy? My small county has no Neurology Clinics or doctors and a backlog of over 6 weeks to see a speech therapist. I had a stroke in my sleep over two months ago; don't have blocked arteries anywhere, don't smoke or drink, am not overweight, don't have diabetes. I hate banging into walls and can only take very short walks (used to walk 1-2 miles every day rain or shine). Fell back in Sept and broke my right elbow (am right-handed); it's healed, but sore at times.

I just want to be me again...depression is setting in. keep trying to remember that old age ain't for sissies. buck up, old girl, things could be worse...
