Deans' stroke musings: How Stimulant Medications May Improve Executive Functions for ADHD and LD

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.

How Stimulant Medications May Improve Executive Functions for ADHD and LD

You'll have to ask your doctor if this could possibly help your executive function deficits.
How Stimulant Medications May Improve Executive Functions for ADHD and LD

On Thursday, April 6th, at 1 pm ET, join us for a free expert webinar with Dr. Charles Parker.

See below to see how you can receive a complimentary set of of Dr. Parker's slides for this presentation.

The latest neuroscience discoveries are helping clinicians and patients with ADHD better manage their executive functions with medication. Here, learn more about the latest research — and how doctors are using new information about side effects and treatment failure to make stimulant medications work more predictably and more effectively.

In this webinar, you will learn:

How new brain science discoveries encourage common-sense solutions for assessing whether a medication is working
Why Medication Duration of Effectiveness [DOE] is the new standard of care
Why repeated medication failures reveal underlying metabolic interferences
How metabolic, biomedical measures provide previously under-recognized answers
How associated serotonin imbalances often confound predictable outcomes
How to work with a clinician to fine tune a medication’s dosage and effectiveness
How imbalanced thinking connects with working memory challenges
How drug interactions affect an ADHD medication’s effectiveness
