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.

Mental imagery to win an Olympic medal

From the New Scientist issue of February 2016. 

'Take the British athlete Steve Backley, a bronze medalist in the javelin at the 1992 Barcelona Olympic Games, who sprained his ankle just before the 1996 Atlanta games. He was on crutches for weeks, so he trained by imagining the perfect throw over and over again. He won silver that year.'

Now with ANY BRAINS AT ALL IN STROKE, we would have had that created into a protocol for survivors. But we don't have two functioning neurons anywhere in stroke leadership. 

You are completely on your own to figure out your recovery. Your medical staff has abdicated responsibility for anything to do with your recovery. Have they ever given you anything exact on what to do to recover?  Obviously not.
