His left side is paralyzed and speech is slurred. He is sometimes confused, but generally seems to have OK long term memory.
Short term is sporadic.
This morning the sub-acute rehab. Hospital admitted him, said he'd lost two units of blood, but they couldn't determine how. They did say that stress ulcers were common after strokes, but they said he showed no sign of ulcers. They are now, evidently, trying to figure out whether he needs a transfusion to replace the two units of blood he evidently lost. I am new to strokes, but this all seems a curious inability to determine the source of a problem.
