My father (age 43) experienced a pontine hemorrhagic stroke 9 months ago. He acquired nystagmus and spasticty from this attack. However, the effects were delayed and were only manifested after 5 months or so. Until when will he experience spasticity? And is there a cure for nystagmus? Please help us

      No I just keeped on falling down,I felt drunk without drinking,people said I was talking funny then I had a major stroke at the hospital in front of my ten year old and I was out.when I came back- I was seeing double and had to learn to walk again, my speach was ok it happen in 2010 and I'm on clexin injection so I don't clot. got my driving licence back two months after my stroke, I guess they picked up on the stroke since I had the big one in hospital thanks to them.yeah. but I got another clot in my leg and lost that so I'm a cripple bummer with a brain you just have to laugh or you cry. Always keep a diary on times,dates,medical staff you speak to and date it.even medicines taken and there effects because everyone is different some can handle pain, people that have a stroke are lable (head banger's) like we can't think. so I'm glade your their for your dad.I came back from hospital on my own with a little girl that had a sprain anckle so we were both walking funny ha ha.bye
