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.

'Since the quick recovery did not work, you''ll have to settle for the slow rehab recovery'

The quote from my ER doctor when tPA did not fully work. This is 10 years after it was approved and very obviously this doctor had seen it fail many  times before. He should have gone screaming into the head stroke doctors office, 'That tPA barely ever works, what are you doing about something better?'  But no, no one was willing to tell the emperor that he was naked. Which means that we have wasted almost 20 years trying to shoehorn  everything into a tPA protocol. Damn are people stupid. This is why the stroke medical world should not be in charge of stroke research and rehabilitation.
