Dizziness post stroke

Posted by tstrepy @tstrepy, May 19 9:50am

My husband had a stroke 18 months ago and has experienced dizziness ever since. It seems to be worse in the morning. It gives him a feeling of uselessness and hopelessness. He is depressed and can’t find anything good in life anymore. This all happened just as we both were retiring. Has anyone else had this happen to them and do you have any advice?

No one in the Red Wing area unless someone can lead me to someone. I really like the Rochester Mayo but once you are discharged from there their pop up clinics in surrounding towns have no specialist field Drs. I also have AFib and HCM and when I ask a primary to check with a Cardiologist before prescribing meds that would increase heart rythem they just dismiss it until I get to the pharmacy and discourage taking the perscription because of known heart side affects. I am thinking on a new health system , but I like the knowledge of Rochester Mayo for imergancies. If anyone knows of some place near Red wing for therapy I would appreciate it.
