In this solo episode, Dr. Linda Bluestein brings on her producers to help unpack the hidden complications that can follow seemingly routine medical procedures. From the lingering effects of breast surgery to the controversial use of nitrous oxide, Dr. Bluestein explores how standard treatments can backfire, especially for patients with EDS, MCAS, or complex regional pain syndrome (CRPS). She also dives into the surprising risks of cervical collars, and why something that feels stabilizing may actually worsen pain over time. If you've ever been told your symptoms “shouldn't be happening,” this episode might finally connect the dots. Takeaways Dr. Bluestein explains how this commonly used sedative can trigger or worsen neurological symptoms in vulnerable patients and why you might want to avoid it. From scar sensitivity to chronic nerve pain, Dr. Bluestein explores the challenges many face but few anticipate. You'll learn when collars are truly helpful and when they might prolong instability, weakness, and pain. This condition affects the nervous system in ways most clinicians miss. Dr. Bluestein breaks down how to recognize early signs and advocate for better care. Dr. Bluestein reveals the disconnect between standard protocols and what EDS/MCAS patients actually experience in the OR and during recovery. Want more Dr. Linda Bluestein, MD?

In a stunning legal reversal that's shaking the true crime and justice world, the Florida appellate court has overturned the $213.5 million verdict in the Maya Kowalski case — one of the most emotionally charged courtroom battles in recent memory. Former FBI agent and true crime analyst Jennifer Coffindaffer sits down with legal expert Dave Ehrenberg to dissect what went wrong and what comes next in this explosive new episode of Break the Case. For those unfamiliar, Maya Kowalski suffered from a rare pain condition known as CRPS. While hospitalized, her mother, Beata Kowalski, was accused by doctors of suffering from Munchausen by proxy — a form of abuse involving fabricating or inducing illness in a child. When Beata was prevented from seeing Maya for more than 80 days, the distraught mother fell into a deep depression and ultimately took her own life, leaving behind a note pleading for her daughter's release. A Florida jury later awarded the Kowalski family over $200 million in damages, holding Johns Hopkins All Children's Hospital accountable for false imprisonment, emotional distress, and wrongful death. But now, the Second District Court of Appeals has vacated that verdict entirely, citing major errors by the trial judge — particularly around Florida's “mandatory reporter” immunity laws. The appellate court ruled that hospital staff, acting as mandatory reporters of suspected abuse, were shielded by law and acted in good faith when they contacted child protection authorities. This means a new trial will move forward, but only for a limited set of claims: battery, medical negligence, and intentional infliction of emotional distress on behalf of Maya herself. Beata's death, which once anchored the case's emotional gravity, may only be referenced as context. The decision not only erases a massive verdict but also sets a crucial precedent for hospitals and medical professionals across Florida. Coffindaffer and Ehrenberg's discussion peels back the layers of this controversial ruling — a reminder that even in the pursuit of justice, emotion and law often collide. This is more than a case; it's a tragedy, a legal reckoning, and a lesson in how far institutions will go to protect themselves under the letter of the law. #TrueCrime #MayaKowalski #BeataKowalski #JohnsHopkinsHospital #LegalAnalysis #BreakingNews #JusticeForMaya #CourtAppeal #FloridaLaw #InvestigativeNews Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

CRPS, czyli zespół Sudecka to jedno z tych rozpoznań, które potrafi budzić niepewność nawet u doświadczonych terapeutów. Ból, nadwrażliwość, zaburzenia czucia, zmiany troficzne - objawy bywają intensywne, a reakcje pacjentów nieprzewidywalne. Jak w tym wszystkim się nie pogubić? Rozmawiam z Magdą Kolasińską - prezes elekt Polskiego Towarzystwa Terapii Ręki o tym: co dziś nauka mówi o mechanizmach CRPS, jak rozumieć rolę układu nerwowego i neuroplastyczności, jak planować terapię i unikać najczęstszych błędów, kiedy dotyk pomaga, a kiedy lepiej od niego odejść. To rozmowa dla tych, którzy chcą rozumieć zamiast działać na oślep.
DMSO is an "umbrella remedy" capable of treating a wide range of challenging ailments due to its combination of therapeutic properties (e.g., reducing inflammation, improving circulation, and reviving dying cells). It also rapidly transports substances dissolved in it through the skin and throughout the body These benefits are also seen when DMSO is combined with a variety of natural therapies – in many cases, allowing the mixture to treat challenging conditions neither could treat alone DMSO is commonly combined with proven nutraceuticals, such as vitamins and antioxidants These combinations effectively treat a myriad of diseases, including skin cancer, prostate enlargement, cataracts, CRPS, fatigue, lost smell or hearing, osteoarthritis, COPD, and tinnitus This article will review the basics of botanical DMSO combinations, the literature supporting it, and show how these mixtures can be used to treat many additional challenging medical conditions
In this episode, I did a video live on all of my platforms about a CRPS Summit. I felt like this summit needed to be on this platform as well due to the millions of people that have chronic pain in CRPS that are not being treated. so I decided to post it on all of my platforms. A friend of mines Charles Mattocks did a summit on his website about CRPS and pain. This summit consists of not only doctors who specialize in CRPS from around the world, but also the patients who suffer from it. And I thought this would be a great summit to bring awareness about CRPS, and pain. So I decided I wanted to do a two part episode about the summit and about the conversations between the patients and the doctors about CRPS and pain and western medicine as far as how they deal with it. So I hope this summit that my friend did brings a lot of awareness about CRPS and chronic pain. I thought it was a great summit that I wanted to share with my audience.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/a-happier-you-leads-to-a-healthier-you--5161886/support.

Jannie, a 74-year-old from Canada, developed Complex Regional Pain Syndrome (CRPS) in 2016 after a severe foot injury and surgery. She began using Low Dose Naltrexone (LDN) after researching its benefits and, with her doctor's support, became one of the first in her area to try it. LDN significantly reduced her nerve pain and allowed her to live an active life. After needing recent surgery to remove old hardware from her foot, her CRPS briefly returned when she had to stop LDN—but quickly improved once she restarted it. Janie encourages others with chronic pain to research, stay hopeful, and actively participate in their recovery.
Henry is bravely sharing his journey with Complex Regional Pain Syndrome (CRPS) and has launched a fundraiser to help with the costs of treatment and ongoing care. Through this initiative, he hopes not only to raise financial support but also to bring greater awareness to CRPS, a rare and challenging condition that affects countless lives.

A diagnosis doesn't mean you have to hit pause on your purpose. In this episode, Lyndsay Soprano sits down with Deb Krier—a powerhouse entrepreneur, stage four breast cancer survivor, and proof that you can still show up and lead, even when life throws its worst.They talk about what it really takes to keep moving forward while living with chronic pain, illness, and the emotional weight of it all. Deb shares how she built her “battle plan” with doctors, used humor as fuel, and leaned into empathy—not just to survive cancer, but to keep thriving in business and in life.This episode isn't about pretending it's easy. It's about choosing to rise anyway.

If you're tired, wired, and in pain—this one's for you. Insomnia, stress, and chronic discomfort often show up together, and we tend to treat them like separate problems. But what if they all stem from something simple… and fixable?Lyndsay Soprano talks with Natalie Jurado, founder of Rooted In, about the quiet power of magnesium. Not the kind in chalky pills or powders that mess with your gut—but in a cream your body can actually absorb. Natalie shares how magnesium supports everything from sleep and anxiety to inflammation, energy, blood pressure, and even mood swings.They dig into how magnesium deficiency flies under the radar, why it's often misdiagnosed, and how most of us—kids included—aren't getting enough. From ADHD to weight loss to workout recovery, magnesium plays a starring role in our well-being. And the truth is, food isn't always enough.This conversation is equal parts science and real talk. It's about understanding your body, getting ahead of burnout, and giving your nervous system the support it's been quietly begging for.Tune in if you've tried everything for your pain, sleep, or stress—and nothing's worked.

"I told my husband he could leave—I had just been diagnosed with an incurable pain disease less than a year into our marriage… but he stayed. And that's when I decided I was going to fight, not just for me, but for everyone like me." On this episode of Celebrate Your Story, I sit down with Beth Stillitano, a former teacher whose life was turned upside down at just 24 years old after a seemingly minor fall led to a diagnosis of Complex Regional Pain Syndrome (CRPS), a rare and excruciating neurological disease often called “the suicide disease.” Beth shares her emotional journey through years of relentless pain, misdiagnoses, and opioid dependency, and how she eventually found healing through therapy, mindfulness, and community. But her story doesn't end with survival, it's about purpose. Beth went on to co-found Fight the Flame, a national nonprofit supporting CRPS patients, caregivers, and medical professionals. Her mission: to make sure no one faces this invisible illness alone. This is a story about pain, resilience, and the power of showing up for yourself, your family, and the millions who suffer in silence.
Dear HR Diary - The Unfiltered Truth You Wish They Taught in Management School
Send us a textGrab your coffee—and maybe a calculator—because we're getting real about retirement. In this episode, I sit down with retirement plan whisperer Courtenay Shipley to chat about all things 401(k), from why this benefit is more than just a line item to how we really need to be talking about it with our employees.Whether you're a manager, an HR pro, or someone who just keeps “set up 401(k)” on your to-do list indefinitely (we see you), Courtenay brings the clarity, strategy, and humor needed to finally make retirement planning feel… possible.We talk about: ✅ Why retirement benefits still matter—yes, even for Gen Z ✅ The value of automatic enrollment (hint: it helps people who forget to adult) ✅ Why skipping the company match is like turning down free money ✅ The most common types of 401(k) plans and what makes each one tick ✅ Growth strategies that don't require a finance degree ✅ Communication tips to help employees actually understand their retirement options ✅ Why helping people “get the why” is the key to better participation and less future regretCourtenay also breaks down how to prepare for the transition to retirement and how organizations can support employees at every stage of their financial planning journey.This episode is all about turning that “I'll get to it later” mindset into “I'm on it!” Because let's be honest—future-you deserves a nap on a beach, not a panic attack at 68.Resources Mentioned:
⚠️ Content Warning: This episode contains a discussion around suicidal thoughts. Please take care while listening and seek support if you need it.Living with Complex Regional Pain Syndrome (CRPS) isn't just painful—it's punishing. It hijacks your body, messes with your mind, and turns everyday tasks into uphill battles. In this episode, Lyndsay Soprano sits down with Jeannette Tashjian for a brutally honest conversation about what it really means to live with relentless, unpredictable pain.They talk about the parts most people don't see: the mental spiral, the isolation, the weight of explaining yourself over and over, and the moments when giving up feels like the only option. But they also talk about what keeps them going—connection, infrared sauna therapy, self-advocacy, and the power of simply being heard.This episode doesn't sugarcoat anything. From navigating life with a disability to confronting the stigma around suicidal thoughts, Jeannette and Lyndsay lay it all out. They speak from the gut—about grief, about resilience, and about finding pieces of joy in a body that feels like it's working against you.If you've ever felt like no one understands what you're going through—or if you love someone who lives with chronic pain—this conversation will hit home.Tune in for the truth behind CRPS, and the reminder that you're not alone in this fight.Find Jeanette Tashjian Online Here:Website: www.burbankinfraredsauna.comInstagram: @burbankinfraredsaunaPast Guest Episode 6: The Pain Game Podcast Episode 6Find The Pain Game Podcast Online Here:Website: thepaingamepodcast.comInstagram: @thepaingamepodcastFacebook: The Pain Game PodcastLinkedIn: Lyndsay SopranoYouTube: The Pain Game PodcastIF YOU'RE IN CRISIS:USA – Call or text 988 (24/7)Canada – Call: 1-833-456-4566 (24/7) | Text: 45645 (4 PM–12 AM EST)Episode Highlights:(00:00) Introduction to Chronic Pain and Trauma(03:12) Understanding Complex Regional Pain Syndrome (CRPS)(06:01) Personal Stories of Pain and Trauma(08:52) The Role of Infrared Sauna in Pain Management(12:11) Navigating Life with CRPS(14:58) Acceptance and Coping Mechanisms(18:07) The Importance of Community and Support(23:42) Finding Freedom in Acceptance(30:43) Navigating the Pain Journey(31:12) Addressing Suicidal Thoughts(43:45) The Importance of Hope and Support

What do you do when your pain becomes so intense, so overwhelming, that the only place left to turn is the emergency room—and even that doesn't feel safe?In this raw and revealing episode, Lyndsay Soprano opens up about her own lived experience with chronic pain, including CRPS and Lyme disease, and the harsh reality of seeking help in an emergency medical system that often doesn't know what to do with people like her. The ER isn't always a place of comfort—it can be cold, dismissive, and downright dangerous when you're already at your breaking point.She's joined by Dr. Jim Keany, an emergency physician who brings honesty and insight to the conversation. Together, they unpack the disconnect between chronic pain patients and emergency care providers, the emotional toll of pain that goes far beyond the physical, and the desperate need for a healthcare system that sees people as whole humans—not just symptoms.Lyndsay and Dr. Keany discuss the deeper layers of chronic pain—how trauma can amplify it, how isolation can worsen it, and how the system often misses the mark. They touch on the struggles of medication management, the power of journaling, and how tools like hypnosis can actually help. Most of all, they stress the importance of treating the whole person, not just the symptoms. With empathy, advocacy, and even a little hope, healing becomes more possible.If you've ever felt dismissed, gaslit, or broken by your pain—or by the people meant to help you, this episode is for you.Find Dr. Jim Keany Online Here:LinkedIn: Dr. Jim KeanyFind The Pain Game Podcast Online Here:Website: thepaingamepodcast.comInstagram: @thepaingamepodcastFacebook: The Pain Game PodcastEpisode Highlights:(00:00) Introduction to Chronic Pain and Trauma(03:04) Emergency Situations and Pain Management(05:54) The Role of Emergency Medicine in Chronic Pain(08:48) Understanding Pain: Psychological and Physical Aspects(12:00) Navigating the Healthcare System(14:57) Alternative Pain Management Strategies(17:51) The Importance of Whole Person Care(21:00) Supporting Loved Ones in Chronic Pain(23:54) The Role of Journaling in Pain Management(26:50) Global Perspectives on Pain and Suffering(30:03) Hope and Future in Pain Management

Carolyn McMakin, MA, DC - frequencyspecific.com/about Kim Pittis, LCSP, (PHYS), MT - fsmsports365.com 00:13 Patient Case: Lumbar Spine Surgery and Nerve Pain 02:05 Treatment Protocols and Techniques 02:39 Case Study: Diabetic Neuropathy Misdiagnosis 05:36 Collaborative Diagnosis and Treatment 11:57 Exploring Anatomy with Netter 19:42 Understanding AB Pairs in Treatment 31:38 Managing Diabetes in the Elderly 32:29 Understanding Diabetic Neuropathy 36:20 Physical Exams and Patient Interaction 40:50 Diagnosing and Treating Pain 45:17 Complex Pain Cases and CRPS 51:25 SI Joint Dysfunction and Treatment **Understanding Patient Histories and Symptoms** A comprehensive understanding of patient histories and symptoms is crucial for effective treatment planning. For instance, distinguishing between different types of nerve pain, such as diabetic neuropathies and radiculopathies, requires a meticulous examination and thoughtful questioning. Symptoms often present differently, depending on underlying issues. Diabetic neuropathy typically presents as symmetrical numbness following a "socks and gloves" pattern, while radiculopathy follows a dermatomal pattern and is often aggravated by movement. Understanding these distinctions can direct practitioners towards more accurate diagnostic and treatment pathways. **Utilizing FSM in Clinical Practice** FSM provides unique opportunities to address conditions that are otherwise difficult to treat. For example, when dealing with chronic pain or nerve severance, FSM can be tailored to target specific pathologies and tissues, promoting healing and managing pain. Practicing an evidence-based thought process is essential, as it allows the clinician to customize FSM protocols to suit individual patient needs. When treating acute injuries, practitioners are advised to focus on reducing inflammation without disrupting the natural healing process. For instance, in the management of acute sprains or strains, practitioners may opt to stimulate circulation through the fascia instead of lymphatic tissues directly with FSM, potentially providing notable relief and improved functional outcomes. **Collaboration for Better Diagnosis** Diagnosis often benefits from a collaborative approach. Utilizing anatomical references, such as Netter's Architecture, during patient consultations can enhance understanding and engagement, enabling patients to visualize and comprehend the therapeutic focus. This collaboration not only assists in accurate diagnosis but also empowers patients by involving them actively in their treatment plans. **Managing Complex Cases** For intricate cases, such as those involving chronic low back pain or neuropathic issues following surgical interventions, FSM offers a pathway to alleviate symptoms through targeted protocols. It is essential for practitioners to closely consider the full scope of the patient's history, assess the interplay of symptoms, and explore multifaceted treatment angles. This might include addressing both physical and neurological aspects of pain, using FSM's ability to treat tissue-specific pathologies. **Continual Education and Adaptation** Staying informed about the latest research and developments in FSM is crucial. Medical practitioners are encouraged to engage with ongoing educational resources and remain adaptable in their practice. This ensures that treatment protocols are aligned with the latest evidence, maximizing therapy effectiveness for complex pain and healing challenges. Integrating Frequency Specific Microcurrent into clinical practice offers a novel, holistic approach to managing complex pain and rehabilitation scenarios. By fostering a deep understanding of patient symptoms, collaborating for accurate diagnosis, and continually adapting treatment protocols, practitioners can enhance their therapeutic impact, leading to improved patient outcomes and satisfaction.

The goal is to help employees move through different stages of behavioral change at their own pace.Understanding employees' needs is critical - start with a comprehensive survey to identify what financial topics are most important to your workforce, and design programs that meet them where they are in their financial journey.Measuring success goes beyond traditional metrics. Look at engagement indicators like webinar attendance, article clicks, survey participation, and gradually expanding program participation over 2-3 years.The most important approach is remembering that wellness programs are about people, not just numbers. Connect with employees personally, provide hope through success stories, and create supportive, ongoing resources that recognize individuals are at different stages of financial readiness.“Remember, you're dealing with people. Remember that they're not participants, they're not employees, they're not co-workers, they're not associates, they're people. Connect with them where they are and see them as the people that they are in front of you.” - Kelly MajdanConnect with Kelly Majdan:Website: https://www.onedigital.com/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/kellymajdan/ Connect with Eric Dyson: Website: https://90northllc.com/Phone: 940-248-4800Email: contact@90northllc.com LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/401kguy/ The information and content of this podcast is general in nature and is provided solely for educational and informational purposes.

Prioritize participant experience, technology access, and clear metrics.Approach the RFP process rigorously to evaluate new technologies, services, and pricing while addressing changing plan needs. Avoid inertia from periodic reviews and use customized, goal-driven RFPs instead of generic templates.Consider record keepers with personalized, targeted communication leveraging AI for better participant engagement and outcomes. The target-date fund (TDF) search could possibly precede the record-keeper search, focusing on participants' needs for the largest plan assets first. Personalized video technology boosts engagement and outcomes. Ensure clear requirements, address committee biases, and prioritize investment analysis before selecting a record keeper.“You really have to focus on the best decision for your participants, minus all the noise and all the other bells and whistles that may come from those extraneous services.” - Corey PrideConnect with Frank Tighe:LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/frankjtighe/ Connect with Corey Pride:LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/corey-pride/ Connect with Eric Dyson: Website: https://90northllc.com/Phone: 940-248-4800Email: contact@90northllc.com LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/401kguy/ The information and content of this podcast is general in nature and is provided solely for educational and informational purposes.

Our guest this week is Christine James. Christine is a mother to two daughters, 19 and 23, a nurse of 8 ½ years and now a chronic pain patient. She was happy to take the time to speak with us in order to bring awareness to a rare and largely unknown disease: CRPS or Complex Regional Pain Syndrome. As a nurse she worked in the fields of home health, acute medical, psych, long term care, dialysis; and has floated to many other units within hospitals. She has worked at the bedside and have also held supervisory positions. Passionate about her career as a nurse, she hopes to get well enough to work again. In her 20's she was diagnosed with degenerative disc disease and osteoarthritis of the spine. Over the course of many years she went through many procedures and treatments due to lumbar disc herniations to include six back surgeries- one of which resulted in permanent damage to her L-5/S-1 nerve root resulting in permanent right foot drop, and one of which was a fusion of L-5/S-1 using four screws and two rods. After walking 10 years with foot drop and working as a nurse the instability and condition in her right ankle caused constant swelling and pain which led her to seek further treatment. It was found that her joint was arthritic and the bones were collapsing out of position. Her Achilles tendon was also found to be too tight. On March 11, 2024 she underwent a right Achilles tendon release, tendon transfer to improve foot drop. Three weeks later the symptoms of CRPS were recognized by her surgeon and she was diagnosed on April 8, 2024. Due to her foundation of knowledge as a nurse and due to her drive to get better, she joined multiple social media platforms in search of how to find the treatment she needed and through that process she also began helping others learn about this disease. When she is feeling healthy, she enjoys many creative hobbies, gardening, and is an avid concertgoer. She has two cats, & lives with her boyfriend in Michigan. They are currently struggling to make it through this difficult time with her health. Financial issues have become bad enough that she sold personal items, used food pantries, and started a gofundme. She is currently active in Facebook groups and has a TikTok account that she uses to network with others that have CRPS, chronic pain, and chronic illness. She is grateful to participate in the online community in any way to bring awareness and understanding to CRPS sufferers.
