Can you be continent of urine with a left sided stoke?

I am not sure what you are asking here - do you mean that the left side of the brain was affected, or the left side of the body? As you are probably aware, if the left side of the brain was affected, then the right side of the body will be affected, and vice versa.

I suffered a LEFT stroke, so my RIGHT physical abilities have been damaged, but I do not have incontinence problems, EXCEPT if I am stupid and take muscle relaxant meds. The irony was that when I came out of hospital my urinary control was far better than before the stroke, except that some months later , I took an alternative/natural therapy which was supposed to relieve cramps, which I did not really need to take, which did leave me, not incontinent, but without the bladder control that I had come home with. This, unfortunately has never recovered. Apparently it is lack of the neurotransmitter vassopressin that causes this problem, and this is available as a prescription medication, and over the NET, however it caused me headaches, and I do not like taking medication, anyway. If you stop using it, suddenly, you get a rebound effect, so that, then, yes you do become incontinent.

I have met a number of stroke victims in the last 16 years, and, although they may have urgency difficulties (and that is likely due to slowness of movement and difficulty with dexterity in undoing clothes) i have not met any who have real incontinence issues.
