Hello @kleo4 and welcome to Mayo Connect

I can only imagine what a frightening experience this was for you and your partner. You mentioned that you are scared that this will never go away. What has your partner's doctor said regarding the recovery progress for this type of brain bleed? A lot of people have had good results with physical and cognitive therapy after a stroke or brain bleed. When you see the neurosurgeon this week, these are good questions to bring up.

Here is a link to a Mayo website that discusses stroke rehab, https://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/stroke/in-depth/stroke-rehabilitation/art-20045172. Here are some other Mayo Connect discussions about strokes and brain bleeds that you might find helpful,

I hope that you and your partner are able to put your fears aside for just a time until you have the opportunity to talk with the doctor.

I would love to hear from you again. Will you post again?

Teresa

Thank you, Teresa. We are headed there this afternoon. I will let you know how it goes. Matt, my partner, is anxious about it, too. I hope we will get good news.

@kleo4 Hello Karen,

I have been thinking about you and your partner. As I noticed from your last post, he had a doctor's appointment on the 11th. I am hoping that he got some information that has put your mind at ease and has offered him a good strategy for recovery.

When you have time, I would love to hear from you again.

@kleo4 Hello Karen:

I hope that your partner is experiencing some recovery from his stroke. Did his doctor suggest physical, occupational or cognitive therapy?

I would enjoy hearing from you at your convenience.

Teresa
