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.

Pedicure

What a great thing to have done. One-handed trimming of curling toenails barely works, and the finishing up by getting rubbed done with hot stones was heavenly. The big toenail I lost last April on the  cruise has pretty much come in, except it has ingrown and is painful and bleeding. Which is not helping my resolution to get in at least 10,000 steps a day. Right now I'm on an 9 day streak and my weight is barely budging downward.

    I gave up on cutting my own toenails soon after the stroke and have been getting a pedicure about once every six weeks. I've started getting a paraffin dip as well. The hot wax is heavenly on the spastic muscles around my foot and ankle.
