Hi Keith:
Honestly, I can't give you a good direct answer. Every person is different, every stroke victim is different. Side effects of a stroke can stick around for a very long time. I think this is best for you to communicate with your doctor to see what recommendations he/she has pertaining to your situation and he/she can assess you neck pain also.
Best wishes,
Tara
