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.

‘Post-stroke’ seminar set in Palo Alto

Attend with lots of questions if you can.
Ask - how do your recover dead brain functionality?
Why do only 40% of survivors get spasticity?
How exactly do you get rid of spasticity?
What are the chances of getting dementia/Alzheimers because I had a stroke?
Bombard them with questions to show how little they actually know.

The effects of stroke can range from mild to severe, reversible to permanent. Some people recover completely from strokes, but more than two-thirds of survivors will have residual dysfunction.
A free seminar designed to educate the community about supporting stroke survivors in all phases of stroke care will be held Thursday, April 11, in Palo Alto. Called “How To Navigate Your Post-Stroke Recovery Journey,” the two-hour session begins 4:30 p.m. at La Comida of Avenidas, 450 Bryant St., Palo Alto.
