For some of these I'm going to ask my ER doctor to administer them to me when I have another stroke. And damn their lack of giving me options.
I put these all in one place for those too lazy to follow the research on their own and even too lazy to read thru my whole blog. And to make it easier to refer to all these options in one place.
This is so incredibly obvious. Have your stroke association sponsor researchers looking into these options. Just like the Alzheimers Foundation and the Myelin Repair Foundation and the Michael J. Fox Foundation that sponsor research. These at least are for persons with those diseases. Our stroke associations seem to be for doctors with the stroke 'victims' acting as magnets for donations. My opinion in this matter is that any non-profit/charity with stroke in its name should be led by a survivor and have a survivor board of directors. Anything else just leads to complacency.
But then I'm a stroke-addled survivor who just should get out of the way of the perfect medical gods. Too bad I'm an atheist, I don't listen to gods.

This one had been tested in rats 5 years prior to my stroke and if anyone had been checking the research they could have asked me if I wanted to take statins because in rats it helped. I would have said yes. But I bet even now this is not standard. You can't check because the Joint Commission hides stuff.
This seems like such a no-brainer, low cost, no side effects unless you are like Jill Bolte-Taylor.
