Deans' stroke musings: How to detect stroke on time and avoid distability?

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.

They don't bother to tell you how fucking unlikely it is that even if transported quickly to the hospital you will fully recover. You might survive as I did, getting tPA in 90 minutes but no cigar on the full recovery.

The time span of three hours from the beginning of the stroke is called in medicine "therapeutic window." This is a period, during which it is possible to provide effective assistance in a hospital.

How to avoid disability yourself

Sometimes, a heart attack or a stroke happens when there is no one who could help. So if you suddenly feel that your heart is beating "wrong" way, and you are close to fainting, you only have about 10 seconds before you lose consciousness.
Meanwhile, all victims of heart attacks could help themselves. For this goal, you need to start coughing many times and with great force. Each time before you make a cough, take a deep breath. A coming cough must be deep and prolonged as if you get sputum deeply from a chest.
