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.

The Stroke Rehabilitation Paradigm

The overriding paradigm in stroke is that NOBODY KNOWS ANYTHING CONCRETE ABOUT RECOVERY. But you will hear the craptastic  excuse, 'All strokes are different, all stroke recoveries are different.' You need to laugh in their faces for trying to use that 'Get Out of Jail Free' card. 

None of the following problems have any solution and your doctor will sputter if you demand solutions.  


No one is even addressing all these problems;




Here is their list of problems to solve. 'WHY THE HELL WON'T THEY WORK ON THEM? 

1. 30% get spasticity NOTHING THAT WILL CURE IT.


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


Or is it 40%?


NOTHING THAT WILL CURE IT.


3. Over half of stroke patients have attention problems.


NOTHING THAT WILL CURE IT.




4.  The incidence of constipation was 48%.


NO PROTOCOLS THAT WILL CURE IT.


5. No EXACT stroke protocols that address any of your muscle limitations.



6. Poststroke depression(33% chance)


NO PROTOCOLS THAT WILL ADDRESS IT. 


7.  Poststroke anxiety(20% chance) NO PROTOCOLS THAT WILL ADDRESS IT. 


8. Posttraumatic stress disorder(23% chance)  NO PROTOCOLS THAT WILL ADDRESS IT.


  9.  12% tPA efficacy for full recovery NO ONE IS WORKING ON SOMETHING BETTER.


10.  10% seizures post stroke NO PROTOCOLS THAT WILL ADDRESS IT. 


11. 21% of patients had developed cachexia NO PROTOCOLS THAT WILL ADDRESS IT. 


 

12. You lost 5 cognitive years from your stroke  NO PROTOCOLS THAT WILL ADDRESS IT.



13.  33% dementia chance post-stroke from an Australian study?


       Or is it 17-66%?


       Or is it 20% chance in this research?


NO PROTOCOLS THAT WILL ADDRESS THIS


To prove your doctor knows nothing about stroke recovery ask what the prescriptions said to the therapists. If E.T.(Evaluate and Treat) your doctor knows nothing.
