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.

Bandaid removal failure

 Got the Flu and Pneumonia shots. One in each upper arm with a Bandaid put on the sites. Left arm one was easy to remove, good right arm/hand can easily do the job. The right arm took me rubbing it against the sharp edge of my bathroom mirror to get it halfway off. Then had to continually rub it against a sharp edge of a door frame to get it further. Finally was able to use a long scissors in my right hand to get it removed. I blame my doctor for HAVING NOTHING TO RECOVER MY LEFT HAND.  My therapist justified the hand recovery failure by quoting research that said that if you don't have movement at six weeks you're not likely to get it back. I didn't have the presence of mind back then to ask her what she was doing to change that failure to a success. 

Every single failure in your stroke recovery should initiate a plan from your doctor, therapists and hospital to change that failure to recovery.  If they are not doing that, they are sitting on the failures of the status quo and calling it good. Which means you don't have a functioning stroke doctor or hospital.
