Lozenge give it time, not sure of the severity of your event but in my case the only residual effects is a inability to grasp words as quickly as I would like and my right hand finger tips feel as if the have bandages wrapping them. luckily I am left handed, when the stroke occurred it affected my right side, speech, walking, memory and hand writing although I could hold the pencil just fine I couldn't make it write or even knew what it was called!
My recovery was strange I would fall asleep and wake up with more and more vocabulary and motor skills. In about 10 days is almost back to normal.
Its a dreadful feeling I wish upon no one.
