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.

An anti-fatigue drug has had transformative lifestyle benefits for stroke survivors in a clinical trial conducted by HMRI's Dr Andrew Bivard.

An anti-fatigue drug(modafinal) has had transformative lifestyle benefits for stroke survivors in a clinical trial conducted by HMRI's Dr Andrew Bivard.

Nothing here suggests that this was written up as a protocol and distributed to all the worlds' stroke hospitals.  I bet your stroke hospital will do nothing with this information, they will wait for SOMEONE ELSE TO SOLVE THE PROBLEM?

Your hospital takes no responsibility for finding and implementing research that will help survivors. Ask that if you don't believe me. I bet they don't have a staff person monitoring stroke research. 

I had massive fatigue immediately post stroke and continuing for years. My doctor stupidly said I needed to get more cardiovascularly fit. He never tested my cardio fitness. Three years after my stroke I had a physical where my resting heart rate was 54 at the age of 53. That means my cardiovascular fitness was that of an athlete, even after doing nothing on it for 3 years. Yet I was still completely fatigued everyday.  

Statistics on stroke fatigue:

At least half of all stroke survivors experience fatigue Or is it 70%?

Or is it 40%?
