My take on this. We have to change the minds of all the medical staff associated with stroke rehab and research. We will gore a lot of very smart egos doing so but it is necessary since we need to make progress before the baby boomers really start having strokes. And I am one of the early baby boomers having had a stroke.

1. Confronted with evidence your opinion is flawed you amend your view accordingly,
2. Confronted with evidence your opinion is flawed you amend (read: ignore, or misrepresent) the evidence accordingly.
Anyone interested in sanity, and reason, will adopt option 1. Of course, the anti-science movement, without exception, chooses option 2
Our evidence should consist of all the possible therapies I have outlined that need to be researched and the existing possibilities of neuroplasticity. We can't wait for them to come around to this point of view on their own sweet time. Time is brain, and we need to get cracking now. So start talking to your medical staff and researcher and see what they don't know. I'll be arrogant and say to point them to this blog for education.
Use the labels in the right column to find what you want. Or you can go thru them one by one, there are only 29,286 posts. Searching is done in the search box in upper left corner. I blog on anything to do with stroke. DO NOT DO ANYTHING SUGGESTED HERE AS I AM NOT MEDICALLY TRAINED, YOUR DOCTOR IS, LISTEN TO THEM. BUT I BET THEY DON'T KNOW HOW TO GET YOU 100% RECOVERED. I DON'T EITHER BUT HAVE PLENTY OF QUESTIONS FOR YOUR DOCTOR TO ANSWER.
Changing stroke rehab and research worldwide now.Time is Brain! trillions and trillions of neurons that DIE each day because there are NO effective hyperacute therapies besides tPA(only 12% effective). I have 523 posts on hyperacute therapy, enough for researchers to spend decades proving them out. These are my personal ideas and blog on stroke rehabilitation and stroke research. Do not attempt any of these without checking with your medical provider. Unless you join me in agitating, when you need these therapies they won't be there.
What this blog is for:
My blog is not to help survivors recover, it is to have the 10 million yearly stroke survivors light fires underneath their doctors, stroke hospitals and stroke researchers to get stroke solved. 100% recovery. The stroke medical world is completely failing at that goal, they don't even have it as a goal. Shortly after getting out of the hospital and getting NO information on the process or protocols of stroke rehabilitation and recovery I started searching on the internet and found that no other survivor received useful information. This is an attempt to cover all stroke rehabilitation information that should be readily available to survivors so they can talk with informed knowledge to their medical staff. It lays out what needs to be done to get stroke survivors closer to 100% recovery. It's quite disgusting that this information is not available from every stroke association and doctors group.

And if all can't be done by the time I hit 65 (I'm one of the late boomers)? Do we perish or do what we do best, be courteous but persistent? Sometimes we don't get what we think we need. Such is life.
