Stroke Support Group
A stroke is an acute neurologic injury where the blood supply to a part of the brain is interrupted, either by a clot in the artery or if the artery bursts. The brain perfused by that artery no longer receiving oxygen carried by the blood and dying with cessation of function from that part of the brain.
I was wondering what symptoms those that have had hemorrhages in their right temporal lobe have. What age are you? My son who is now 3 has had spontaneous hemorrhaging in the right temporal lobe when he was 3 months old. I am curious to what symptoms he might have that we don't know of... Docs aren't always very helpful..:( He was so young, they were very unsure what the repercussions were gonna be.
Thanks in advance!!
Oh, he does have complex partial seizures due to the hemorrhage. He has been seizure-free for almost 2 years on Trileptal.

My son when he was 12 had a bleed on the temperal lobe that was no bigger than a pencil dot. He has cavernous malformations. He is 17 now and he has had trouble dealing with stress and bouts of anger. He has learned coping skills through counceling. He has also had anxiety and times of depression. The doc. haven't said it's from the bleed but he didn't have these prob. before. His worst stroke was on the rt.side and he had to have surgery for that one at age 6 and he seem to me to come out of it a changed person. He is a great son and is doing very well now though. He is definately a survivor. You can't tell now by looking at him there was ever anything wrong. He does still have the occassional seizure where he sees a shadow figure but not as often as he use to.

I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
