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.

Leaving Facebook group Young Stroke Survivors

Don't worry James Cooper, after this response is published I will be removing myself from this group  before I get banned. I assume that this will also be deleted so I will be putting it on my blog where I only have had 1.7  million views. I see no reason to belong to a group where legal research and lobbying possibilities are not discussed. Going down the route of medical marijuana is only useful if that is the only way to take the next step of full legalization. The state statutes I've looked at don't allow use for stroke. With 10 million stroke survivors a year we can easily influence public policy but only if we can discuss the options. If you want to be a part of the problem along with all the stroke associations, neurologists and PMR doctors that is your choice. The status quo in stroke is appalling and the only way to change that is to take matters into our own hands. My post on The Way Forward details my ideas on what needs to be done.

Educate yourself.  I've written 78 posts on marijuana 
20 on medical marijuana
2 on THC
18 on cannabinoid
6 on cannabis
with this one covering covering it most concisely if you want to be enlightened; My 13 reasons for marijuana use post-stroke.  Or maybe this; Treating brain diseases with marijuana  
You can easily dismiss me because I have no medical training, which actually is a plus since our stroke medical professionals have been failing survivors for decades. Good luck on recovery for your children and grandchildren from stroke if WE don't take charge of everything in stroke. I plan on paying it forward, do you?
