my mother had a brain biopsy and her left side is paralysed, she is also unable to speak. How long does it take for recovery. Will she be able to speak ? She wants to say something but there is only air coming out no words. How do we make her comfortable ? She is still in ICU
I read your question carefully, and I understand your concern. It is difficult to give an answer because we don't know the cause of her hemiparesis. The brain biopsy is taken precisely for that to help determine the cause of the brain damage, without knowing the cause one cant determine whether it's a process which can be stopped and hopefully will recover with physiotherapy or a progressing issue like cancer which could continue to grow further and worsen her condition. When you get the biopsy result and the diagnosis and possibly the CT or MRI report evaluating how big the damage is feel free to write again with that info so that me or my colleagues can give a more precise answer. I hope things work out for the best.
