NSA statistics from unknown year state that 10% of stroke survivors recover almost completely.
There is no listed definition of what that means or what the cohort of respondents looked like.
To a Facebook question to me on that information; I replied;
I consider myself fully recovered, there is nothing I won't attempt and figure out some way to accomplish it. Even though my left arm and hand are totally non-functional and fatigue is still a bear at 8+ years. It is likely that in a few years my left knee will be destroyed because I'm not able to walk correctly with it.
Use the labels in the right column to find what you want. Or you can go thru them one by one, there are only 29,112 posts. Searching is done in the search box in upper left corner. I blog on anything to do with stroke.DO NOT DO ANYTHING SUGGESTED HERE AS I AM NOT MEDICALLY TRAINED, YOUR DOCTOR IS, LISTEN TO THEM. BUT I BET THEY DON'T KNOW HOW TO GET YOU 100% RECOVERED. I DON'T EITHER, BUT HAVE PLENTY OF QUESTIONS FOR YOUR DOCTOR TO ANSWER.
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.
