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.

Walking,walking, walking

On the last day in France with only 12,000 steps and walking uphill with a toe crest under my left toes. I  still managed to have enough spasticity  in my toes to be walking on the tips of my toes. What the hell is it going to take to get rid of that fucking toe spasticity?
My God in the last 2.9 years I've  walked 4,036,206 steps.
What the hell is it going to take to release that spasticity?


Who in the world knows what to do to relieve spasticity?

    Have you tried mirror therapy for it? It seems to have reduced spasticity in my hand - or maybe that was the chronic passive stretching I've done since even before spasticity set in
