Healthy lifestyle > drugs. A good diet, daily exercise, etc. can make wonders. Also, keep track of your blood pressure. http://bp-chart.com (blood pressure chart) is good for that.

An "ischemic" stroke is an interruption of blood flow to the brain. An "hemorrhagic" stroke is when a blood vessel "breaks" or ruptures. I know, i suffered a hemorrhagic stroke in 2007 and have recovered completely. It was caused by hypertension, compounded by UARS, a sleep disorder. Yes, you CAN get back to normal, but 80% of people who suffer hemorrhagic strokes DIE! I wouldn't count on the recovery that I have had.

Immediatly consult a Neprologist. Serum Creatine should not go beyond 1. Check your kidney function.
