If it's any consolation, Chris, the numbness and weakness I suffered initially on one side eventually wore off/were overcome with exercise, but they kind of "ghosted" for a while -so I'd expect not to be able to feel/do something when actually I could.
Her family doctor should be able to speed up the neurologist process if they feel it's necessary, but honestly, there's a good chance that it isn't, just the hospital covering their backs. Seems to me it's more necessary that you go with her to the Netherlands, eh?
Don't beat yourself up about not going to the hospital The type they can "reverse" are usually the more severe strokes. (I wouldn't have gone either if I hadn't been at the PT when it happened and he called an ambulance).
Your wife just needs to make extra sure she is getting enough sleep and go easy on the stress for a bit, and if she can't/wont do that, that's where she needs you to look out for her
Wishing her a speedy recovery.
