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.

5 Weird Medical Tests You Can Try Right Now and fail at

I failed Romberg's Test at the hospital although I can pass it now.
I can't tell if  I failed Finger Measurement Test because I can't get my left hand into that position. Right hand looks ok.
I failed the Nose Test at the hospital with my left hand and still fail it(I must be constantly intoxicated, damn that red wine and dark beer)
I failed the Heel Test at the hospital with my left leg and still fail it today because my leg spasticity doesn't allow me to bend my knee.
I failed The "Prayer Position" Test and the Pinky Tests because I can't even flatten my left hand at all.
