If I can get anybody to do anything, it's get them to do the emotional recovery, because physical recovery is something that everybody else does to you anyway when you go to a hospital, they look at you.
Imagine enduring the frustration of being misdiagnosed not once, but multiple times. That's the reality Angela Michelle faced. In this episode of 'Recovery After Stroke', Angela recounts her harrowing journey through the healthcare system, where she was misdiagnosed at two different hospitals for blood clots caused by an unknown blood clotting disorder. These missteps resulted in lifelong challenges, including vision problems. But Angela’s story doesn’t end there.
Instead of being defeated, she became her own advocate, seeking out the right doctors and treatments. Angela emphasizes the significance of emotional recovery and shares how yoga helped her find acceptance and peace with her new reality. She delves into the impact of stroke on identity and body image, highlighting the importance of communication and intimacy in relationships post-stroke. Despite the hurdles, Angela views her stroke as a transformative experience that offered her new perspectives on life.
She encourages other stroke survivors to focus on emotional healing and to find ways to serve others, turning their struggles into strengths. Angela’s journey is a testament to resilience and the power of self-advocacy.
