Deans' stroke musings: Some Canadians misunderstanding stroke recovery process: report

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.

Some Canadians misunderstanding stroke recovery process: report

Well hell, that is completely the doctors fault. They were not following research at all or following up with their patients.

Recovery from stroke misunderstood by some Canadians

Some Canadians seem to misunderstand what’s involved in the recovery process for people who’ve had a stroke, a new national report says.
While stroke survivors deal with a lifetime of recovery, the Heart and Stroke Foundation says its latest poll shows one in three Canadians believe that the rehabilitation process is only a few months. After that, these respondents think that stroke patients won’t recover any further.
Graham is living proof that this isn’t true: following her stroke, she took on months of rehabilitation in hospital. Her daughter’s October wedding was only months away – she told Global News she promised herself that she wouldn’t rely on a wheelchair to walk down the aisle.
