I had back surgery in March of 2024 I woke up the doctor said I had a stroke on my left side then he said that I have drop foot but they put not one single piece of material in my back it was to do with my sciatica nerve but also beside my drop foot I might left arm I can't raise it all the way and I drop things when I hold it so I don't know if this is normal but it's about a year and I wear a brace can't even stand to balance myself at all and I use a scooter I have a very hard time walking with a walker because I don't have no balance I should have never got the surgery I don't know if it's normal for this but it's somebody could answer a question I'd really appreciate it cuz it's been a year I had physical therapy and nothing seems to help

I'm sorry that you experienced that. What explanation were you given for the stroke?
