If it were me, @bille, I would ask specifically about what type of cognitive/physical and/or occupational therapy might be helpful. The treatment for depression is a good idea, especially where brain damage has occurred, however, it is important to try to maintain these other systems in the body that were affected by the stroke.

Will you give that some thought?

Yes I will. Cognitively, I see things that have slipped. However I still tested very well. As they said at the outset, the tests could not show what I lost, just where I am now. I now have a baseline to test against in the future should I need it. My Mom had some form of undiagnosed dementia before she died. At least I have a baseline.

I am trying to take things with one focus at a time. For the longest time it seemed I had a different Specialist every day. My GP and me can then take the next steps for depression, i.e. drugs/counseling. I also need to see a urologist about incontinence.

So one day/step at a time.
