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.

Two 'common' signs of dementia that are easily missed and not linked to memory loss

 When your competent? doctor finds these two signs in you post stroke, ARE THERE EXACT PROCOLS GIVEN THAT PREVENT DEMENTIA? NO? So, your doctor IS INCOMPETENT!

How long has your doctor known of this prevention need and DONE NOTHING!

Your doctor is responsible for preventing this! Is s/he willing to prevent this?

1. A documented 33% dementia chance post-stroke from an Australian study?   May 2012.

2. Then this study came out and seems to have a range from 17-66%. December 2013.`    

3. A 20% chance in this research.   July 2013.

4. Dementia Risk Doubled in Patients Following Stroke September 2018

Post stroke anxiety(20% chance).

Two 'common' signs of dementia that are easily missed and not linked to memory loss

Health experts have identified two subtle signs that could potentially indicate the early onset of dementia. These seemingly minor symptoms can gradually develop over time and may be indicative of a more serious condition down the line.

Dementia is a progressive disease that affects the brain's functionality. Initially, patients may appear perfectly fine, but as the disease progresses, common symptoms include memory loss and difficulties with thinking and processing emotions.

Behavioral changes are also a key indicator of this devastating condition, which tragically claimed approximately 76,000 lives last year according to statistics. Now, a health expert has shed light on how these minor shifts could signal something far more severe.

Dr Tim Rittman has pointed out that persistent low mood and heightened anxiety could be easily overlooked factors, yet they might signify the development of dementia.

These emotional fluctuations could seemingly arise from nowhere and dissipate just as quickly, but it's crucial to recognize this pattern, or lack thereof, reports the Daily Star.

He elaborated that individuals could experience intense feelings of sadness, distress, and confusion without any apparent cause.

Such changes could affect daily life and social interactions, making it essential to stay alert to when these emotional surges occur.

Of course, it's important to note that a persistently low mood and general anxiety are not direct indicators of conditions like dementia. In fact, they could be symptoms of other emerging issues, including mental health problems.

However, when these symptoms persistently coincide with other issues like memory problems, it's crucial to take note. Early detection of the disease can optimize treatment and improve quality of life as the condition progresses.

If you or someone you know is consistently feeling depressed or anxious - especially if this is accompanied by other indicative signs such as confusion or memory loss, it's important to consult with healthcare professionals.

By addressing the disease early on, individuals living with dementia can maintain the best possible quality of life, having access to necessary support and resources.

However, it's essential to remember some of the most common manifestations of dementia, as well as Alzheimer's disease - a related condition.

According to the NHS, some symptoms indicating the onset of dementia involve changes in conversation, behavior, and memory.

Keeping these symptoms in mind is vital, as identifying these issues while they're still minor could aid in detecting the disease earlier.

The most common signs of dementia are:

  • Memory loss
  • Inability to plan things or solve problems
  • Have issues with normal routine tasks
  • Getting confused with times and places
  • Struggling to understand distance or other visual cues
  • Problems with writing or speaking
  • Being unable to retrace steps
  • Poor judgment
  • A gradual withdrawal from work or social life
  • Changes in mood and personality
