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.

Why, not what or how stroke rehab

Why do I do what I do? Research everything to do with stroke.
1. My doctor told me nothing, not even that I had a stroke, he referred to it as a CVA and I had to ask what the hell that was. It became obvious that nothing was planned or coordinated with a goal in mind. This really offended my sensibilities as a programmer in a business setting. In programming, you have requirements that you write your code to accomplish. In the stroke rehab world there was nothing like that, just excuses, all strokes are different, all stroke recoveries are different. If I said something like that to my manager after getting an assignment I would be fired.
Why should people care?
1 in 5 people will have a stroke and if you don't want to spend all your time just figuring out how to recover with no guidance. Then you should join my crusade to create a Great stroke association.
Why should people join, help, or be a part of your cause? The existing ones have totally failed. We can prevent lots of damage if we find a way to stop the neuronal cascade of death.
And yes, I know I'm incredibly arrogant for thinking that I can do better that all the stroke associations and doctors out there.
I don't think small.
