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.

Why a drug for aging would challenge Washington

This is only posted so I can refer once again to the suggested drug as quite possibly being useful for a hyperacute stroke intervention. But I have no one to go to to get this into a stroke strategy or protocol. Stroke survivors will forever be screwed until we get some leadership.  I'm going to ask for this drug after my next stroke.  My doctor is not going to know what hit her when I tell her how she is going to treat me.

Why a drug for aging would challenge Washington

You'll have to read the story at the link but they refer to an old diabetes drug - metformin.

You could stay forever young (or young for a long time) with this diabetes drug

In this one is this line:The drug, which is cheaply available for just $0.16 a day, works by boosting the number of oxygen molecules released into a cell, which in turn seems to benefit the robustness and longevity of the body’s basic building blocks. (This would seem to be much easier and faster than HBOT)
