Your doctor I'm sure knows about all the research here being reviewed and has already figured out what protocol changes will be required for your recovery.

Conclusions
The majority of the studies analyzed were randomized controlled trials (RCTs) and included patients hospitalized for stroke. These studies compared 1 level of intensity of rehabilitation with another. The
summary score of the studies that reported mean scores as well as the results of individual studies are consistent. In conclusion, the present finding suggests that functional recovery in patients hospitalized for
stroke, as measured using the Barthel Index or Functional Independence Measure (FIM) scores, is not greater with higher intensity rehabilitation compared with the standard rehabilitation. Significant improvements in scores from baseline to 6 months were observed regardless of the intensity of rehabilitation. This improvement may also be due to spontaneous natural neurological recovery or through other interventions that may enhance neurological recovery.
