Ok so far I have no noticeable brain damage or paralysis. They think it was a blood clot that traveled to my brain and couldn't make it through. Docs are saying cigarettes and diet so idk? Still in the hospital waiting on tests.

Strokes are really serious when you're so young. Do what the drs tell you, this is nothing to mess with my friend. Glad you seem to be doing pretty well. You could easily be in ICU or worse. God bless.

man, I want you to pull through and not have this happen again.

I don't know you but I've spent the night on this forum because my girlfriend is in the hospital, I am very worried, and I am not able to visit her. I can't sleep so I have been reading about painkiller addictions because I know her abuse contributed to her being there for the last few days.

So I really hope you recover completely and quickly. I wish this weren't happening to you. Good luck to you, God Bless you and Bless my love in the hospital too
