I have a couple of ideas. Take what you want, leave the rest:

How much of the depression, agitation, and insomnia are from the stroke?
Does she recommend the same treatment you are receiving for bipolar disorder? Or may other treatments be helpful instead, or in addition to that?

What kind of rehab does she recommend based on your symptoms, and the area of you brain effected by your stroke?

Does she recommend any other type of rehab or treatment that might be helpful for you?

thanks. i will bring then up
bobby

In fact bobby you could print these out to bring with you along with any other questions you may come up with.

I just tried benedry and it seemed to help me sleep. I ordered a small ball to squeeze.
Any exercises at home I can do? I do type a lot on the computer. Will the symptoms get better by themselves? With more blood to the brain will that improve my fanctioning> will reading help

i got it finally to copy and paste
