Deans' stroke musings: Another presentation by Dean

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.

Another presentation by Dean - Dementia prevention

I have fun at these, especially when I show them my abnormal brain scan as compared to normal ones. Gasps usually occur.

One in three seniors die with dementia or Alzheimer's. Dean Reinke, our presenter, is a mainframe programmer, with no medical training. He learned about the brain, because 7 years ago he had a massive stroke. Strokies have a 33% chance of getting dementia/Alzheimers and he was determined that that was not going to happen to him. He writes the Deans' Stroke Musings blog, which is the most popular stroke blog on the net. Everything he will talk about is documented on the blog, with links to the relevant research articles. He has written 107 posts on Alzheimers and 65 on dementia.

I will be comparing and contrasting my ideas with Harvard Medical School and generic prevention ideas.
