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.

7 Best Stroke Websites according to caring.com

Thats their opinion.
This is from the doctors viewpoints.  A survivor would not rate these at all, Canadas Strokengine belongs in first, ASA and NSA are worthless.

 I'll be extremely arrogant and say that my site is better than all of these combined if we want to improve stroke rehab in the long run.

#1 Best Stroke Website: The Internet Stroke Center

#2 Best Stroke Website: National Stroke Association 

You have got to be kidding on this one I never go there because it has no concrete information on rehabilitation and its obviously for doctors. A seminar of theirs I once went to had this for an answer to my question, ' What therapies are available for spasticity?'  'This question falls under our organizational guidelines as a medical inquiry and we defer to the medical community to respond. '

#3 Best Stroke Website: American Stroke Association 

#4 Best Stroke Website: American Speech-Language-Hearing Association (ASHA)

#5 Best Stroke Website: Womenshealth.gov 

#6 Best Stroke Website: CDC Division for Heart Disease and Stroke Prevention 

#7 Best Stroke Website: WebMD Stroke Health Center

  1. This is a predictable list: by organizations that claim to be a top source for stroke information. Maybe if they say it often enough, it becomes true. Yes, yours is better in that it provides more direct access to information, instead of interpreting information for us.

    I think the sites are marketing vehicles for the organizations, but content-free for most survivors.
