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.

New York City

I'm in NYC for work for the week. It's a damned good thing I'm quite mobile. Taking the subway is an exercise in knowing which entrance to use. Several times I had to backtrack and pay for the entrance again because I didn't recognize where I was going until too late. Many steps were climbed and I walked around Times square since that is where I had to go to try to get fingerprinted again.  Glass plate didn't work, so ink was tried again, this time with more success.  Got lost getting off the subway trying to find my hotel.  My sense of direction doesn't work here and the maps available are not detailed enough to figure out where you are. Only 11,165 steps today, 5.34 miles
