History
|
I was admitted with a stroke affecting my swallowing,
manual dexterity and if directly asked, left me incontinent of urine. If
directly asked, I have more trouble with large pieces of solid food. I have
decreased grip strength and movement in my dominant right hand. I am being
discharged on a lot of medication, however shouldn't have trouble taking it.
I am concerned that I will not be able to easily get out of bed, getting
ready in the morning due to difficulties with things like brushing my teeth
or do the cooking. However I am able to walk around and can do shopping
online. I have no trouble with any other activities. I am concerned I will
choke on food and die.
