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.

34th Annual Neurorehabilitation Conference on Traumatic Brain Injury, Stroke and other Neurological Disorders

Whether or not your doctor is going. Here are some questions that need answering. Don't passively wait for your doctor to help you. They won't do a damn thing because they don't know a damn thing about 100% recovery. You can easily prove that by asking how to get back to full recovery. You will get the craptastic answer of 'All strokes are different, all stroke recoveries are different' You need to scream in their face that that is a bunch of bullshit.
1. Exactly how does neuroplasticity work? So it can be repeated in clinical research.
2. What percentage of tPA patients fully recover?
3. What percentage of your patients fully recover?
4. When are hyperacute therapies from New Zealand - enzogenol and Japan - edaravone going to make it to the US?

  1. I think you're asking far too much of doctors to ask 100%. To even ask doctors to help patients regain any quality of life at all seems beyond hope. The help and guidance of the medical community ends at their doors, and extends no further.
