After a brain bleed stroke could anyone tell me what others are experiencing?

Yes brain bleed = hemorrhagic stroke. Caused by blood vessels that break or leak killing Brain cells because they cant get oxygen.

I had a hemorrhagic stroke 7 years ago. My left side was impaired and it took months of therapy to learn to walk without assistance. My left arm and leg are often hypersensitive to touch, and my left foot feels different on a daily basis. Sometimes it feels like I’m stepping on a rock and other times I’m unstable. It’s frustrating to try to plan physical activity, but at least I can walk!

Do you have Centr Poststroke Pain,CPSP from your stroke? I sure hope you don't. I do from an ischemic stroke 4.5yrs ago.
It iz awful!! Anyone else out there suffering from CPSP ?more common with ischemic stroke affecting pain relay centervin brain, thalamus and spino-thalamic nerve pathway supposedly.
I currently take gabapentin but still have the brain" creating the pain".
Thx
