I don't have my strenght anymore, lost it with the first major attack which left me with partial paralysis. What do you do for exercising?

I use 3 lb wights and do some arm exercises every other day and do 5 minutes on my stationary bike when I'm feeling particularly spry (& fat) and can actually climb on - don't walk too much - keep tripping and stepping on my own feet - otherwise do what I can ie: grocery shopping and walking across the street to mailbox !! Then maybe nap - do take baclofen when I remember to try and keep my ankles from stiffening which they tend to do late afternoon/evening -
