Deans' stroke musings: Free Lunch and Learn on stroke to be held in Waverly Ohio

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.

Free Lunch and Learn on stroke to be held in Waverly Ohio

You will need to go and specifically ask about these 11 prevention ideas. And if they are doing anything to stop the neuronal cascade of death. If they don't even know about the cascade of death you need to ask why they are so ignorant. They are killing your neurons thru acts of omission.
We have to hold the stroke medical community feet to the fire because nothing else is working. Screaming at them might get their attention. Try for civil disobedience and an arrest.

Dr. Michael Jones, Neurologist at Adena Health System, will discuss stroke awareness at a free, community lunch and learn being held on Wednesday, Mar. 19 at the Pike County YMCA, located at 400 Pride Drive, Waverly.
The event will begin with lunch being served at 11:30 a.m., with Dr. Jones’ presentation beginning at Noon. A question and answer session will follow.

Dr. Jones will discuss topics related to stroke, such as prevention, recovery, rehabilitation, and warning signs. He will detail the FAST acronym, a cue to help detect when a person may be having a stroke, and how to enhance responsiveness. FAST stands for Facial drooping, Arm weakness, Speech difficulties and Time. The longer a stroke goes untreated, the greater the risk for permanent disability or death.
Dr. Jones will also share details about how the team at Adena Regional Medical Center, a Certified Primary Stroke Center, has established a protocol that helps provide the best results for patients. Adena’s Stroke Team includes neurologists, emergency physicians, nurses, social workers, a hospitalist, pharmacy staff, radiology and lab technicians, and rehabilitation experts.
