update on my hissing roach neurological damage situation

Care Help 🪳

my only remaining roach is still alive, but shes acting weird and im not sure if shes dying too. shes way more active, but not erratic. ive been checking up on her and she panics a lot, but she doesnt flip over and she even climbed the stick in her enclosure all the way to the top which she hasnt done in forever but it proves that her grip isnt poor. she was able to right herself instantly when she fell trying to drink water from the wall of the tank yesterday. shes not circling, falling, and i noticed the other roaches' legs would reposition themselves rapidly idk how to word it and she doesnt do that. but shes still awake in the day and not underneath her log and staying on the side of it instead. she ate too. its still difficult to pick her up unlike the others that i could pick up with ease despite never being able to. but shes never panicked this much. is this just stress or is she kinda doomed? i have no idea how to get the scent from the herb bag i had thats still airborne out of my room. i have a fan on 24/7 and the window is always open, so if that doesnt do it idk what else. if its still going to kill her even tho i took it out weeks ago then i feel hopeless :(
