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.

Sprinting towards a cliff of stroke

My regular readers  know this but the stroke medical world doesn't or their head is in the sand. The stroke medical teams are sprinting towards a cliff of vastly increased stroke patients. They don't have a low altitude parachute or a wingsuit and don't even know if there is water at the bottom. They must expect to build a glider of 100% effective stroke rehab with no preparation. We as patients will surely die or be severely disabled in the attempt.  Unless we start screaming about preparations nothing will get done. They have already proven in the last 20 years that the stroke medical world doesn't plan for the future.

That tsunami of stroke is coming and it's going to disable millions of survivors because the existing stroke protocols only have 10% fully recover. And that has nothing to do with the medical care received, just luck that those were small strokes.
