Your doctor, if competent at all, should
have already known about ferroptosis from this research from September 2017.
And should have initiated stroke treatment interventions from it. But I bet incompetence prevailed! No excuses are allowed, call that president and have these incompetent doctors fired!
Dementia research leads to potential new stroke treatment

Ferroptosis in neurological diseases: moving towards therapeutic intervention
Molecular Psychiatry (2026)
Abstract
Ferroptosis is a regulated cell death driven by iron-dependent lipid peroxidation and has been implicated in major neurological diseases. The brain is enriched in polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) and iron, which makes it particularly susceptible to lipid peroxidation, leading to ferroptosis. In neurological diseases such as Alzheimer’s disease (AD) and stroke, such mechanisms are dysregulated and contribute to neuronal loss. Physiologically, the lipid peroxidation resistance systems in the brain, including defenses (such as SOD, CAT, Prxs, GPxs) and repair systems (such as GPx4, FSP1), prevent ferroptosis and repair damaged phospholipid membranes. However, the efficacy of endogenous resistance systems is often compromised in pathological states, positioning exogenous antioxidants as promising therapeutic candidates. Future research(If your doctorand hospital can't get this further research done, then it's time to keel haul them!) could optimize the delivery of these compounds and explore new candidates that specifically target the ferroptosis signaling pathway to prevent neurodegeneration occurring in neurological diseases.
