Understanding Stroke: A Guide to Medical Terminology

Understanding Stroke: A Guide to Medical Terminology is a handy pocket guide that offers easy-to-understand definitions of the many confusing words stroke survivors and their families encounter. Designed to be small enough to carry with you when you go to appointments, it also includes sections to help you keep track of your doctors, medications, appointments and questions. If you find this booklet helpful, you may also enjoy the full-length book, STROKE: The Road to Recovery (Prillaman/Willett, Alva Addison Publishers, ISBN-13: 978-0615830278), which explains the causes, diagnosis and treatment of stroke in plain language. Hopefully, it will give you a clearer sense of what lies ahead on the road to recovery.
