Podcasts about Diagnosis

On this episode of Thrive Like a Parent, I sit down with Dr. Jon Stevens, a triple board–certified psychiatrist (adult, child, and obesity medicine) who I personally trust so much that I refer my own clients to him. We have a very real, very honest conversation about something parents are terrified to talk about: psychiatric medication for kids. Instead of jumping straight to meds, Dr. Stevens walks us through why accurate, thorough diagnosis is the real starting point—and how rushed 10–15 minute evaluations, urgent care visits, and online “checklist” diagnoses can lead to mislabeling kids, overmedicating, and missing what's really going on in the brain. We dive into: Why he doesn't lead with medication, even as a medication expert The difference between “drugs” and “medication” and why language matters for scared parents How symptoms of ADHD, anxiety, depression, and bipolar can overlap—and why this makes diagnosis so tricky The dangers of the “honeymoon period” with meds (when things feel great at first, then slowly fall apart) and why that can be a red flag Why so many kids end up on a “Franken-list” of 4–6 medications that often makes things worse How parents' own history with ADHD or mental health can quietly shape their fears and decisions When it's too soon to medicate, what “early intervention” really looks like, and why age 4 vs 14 is a very different treatment story The critical role of teachers, pediatricians, and specialists—and why short pediatric visits can't carry the full mental health load Why meds should be a tool, not a magic fix, and how they fit alongside nervous system education, behavior support, movement, sleep, nutrition, and environment Newer and lesser-understood diagnoses like PDA (Pathological Demand Avoidance) and ARFID (Avoidant/Restrictive Food Intake Disorder)—and why they're often flavors or specifiers of a bigger picture, not life sentences How over-diagnosis and “diagnostic bloat” can leave parents feeling like their child is broken, instead of simply different and needing support. Throughout the episode, I share why I shifted my work to focus on teaching parents their own nervous system first, so they can better understand and support their child's. We talk about moving away from blame, fear, and labels—and toward personalized, compassionate, brain-based care that actually fits your child and your family. If you've ever thought: “I don't want to drug my kid.” “I'm scared of meds, but my child is really struggling.” “Do we really need a diagnosis for everything?” …this conversation will give you language, context, and grounded next steps—not more fear. If this episode resonated with you: Share it with a parent, teacher, or caregiver who's wrestling with questions about ADHD, anxiety, or medication.

Have you been told you have histamine intolerance… so now you're cutting out everything—leftovers, fermented foods, bone broth, even avocado—because you read they're histamine high foods… and you're still reacting? Or maybe you don't have an “official” diagnosis… but you've got classic histamine intolerance symptoms like anxiety, reflux, bloating, eczema, dizziness, insomnia, or weird food reactions… and you're wondering if histamine is the problem? Or you've tried all the things to treat high histamine - low histamine diet, histamine intolerance supplements like DAO, even a full-on histamine intolerance treatment plan from another practitione - but you still have histamine symptoms, so you're asking: why won't my histamine calm down? If you said “yes” to any of these questions, then this episode is for you. Today we're continuing the Real Root Cause Series—where I take conditions that get treated like the root cause… and I show you what's actually driving them. Because knowing a fake root cause vs. a real root cause is the difference between managing symptoms forever… or finally getting your life back. Today's topic is: histamine. In this episode, I'm breaking down:What histamine intolerance really is The most common histamine intolerance symptoms you're probably not connecting to histamineWhy a low histamine diet can become a cyclical trap that never heals youThe 6 real root causes that keep histamine high (even when you “eat perfectly”)And how to choose the right testing and support to find and reverse those root causes And one more thing—because I'm doing something fun for this whole series: visuals.

Because when you stop trying to avoid high histamine food like they're your enemy… and start fixing what's making your body unable to handle histamine - that's when you get your life back.

In part two of our menopause series, we unpack common myths and misinformation about perimenopause, menopause, and hormone replacement therapy. Many women are treated in fragments – this episode brings the conversation back into the exam room with practical, patient-centered guidance. We continue our conversation with Sharon Malone, MD, board-certified OB-GYN and chief medical advisor for Alloy Women’s Health, on how perimenopause is diagnosed clinically (often without definitive lab tests), which symptoms should raise red flags, and why HRT is never a one-size-fits-all yes-or-no decision.

Dr. Birnbaum also addresses common early fears, including confusion about autoimmune disease and anxiety around immunosuppressive medications, reframing treatment as dialing down an overactive immune response rather than taking away your immune system. Throughout the episode, he encourages self-advocacy, realistic hope, and partnership with your care team, and shares insights from his book“Living well with autoimmune diseases”  A Rheumatologist's Guide to Taking Charge of Your Health. The takeaway is empowering and hopeful: we're living in a “golden era” of RA care, with more effective treatments and real reason to believe a full, meaningful life is possible alongside this diagnosis.Episode at a glance:00:20 Dr. Burnbaum's Background and Passion for Arthritis & Neurology05:19 The Diagnostic Process in Rheumatology08:59 Understanding Inflammatory Arthritis15:22 Explaining Autoimmune Diseases and Inflammation23:11 The Role of Immunosuppressive Therapies28:16 Personalized Treatment Plans in Rheumatology30:50 Understanding Diagnostic Criteria and Nuances31:31 Dealing with Diagnostic Ambiguity32:57 Empowerment Through Patient-Doctor Partnership38:10 Practical Tips for Patient Empowerment46:03 Realistic Hope and Coping Strategies56:34 Concluding Thoughts and ResourcesMedical disclaimer: All content found on Arthritis Life public channels was created for generalized informational purposes only.

The worst pain is unexplained pain. In this episode of the Hands-On, Hands-Off Podcast, physical therapists Amy McDevitt and Paul Mintkin explore why pain without a clear diagnosis is often the most distressing—and how physical therapists can communicate pain more effectively when imaging, MRI findings, and pathoanatomy don't provide clear answers.This conversation dives deep into pain science, musculoskeletal pain, low back pain, and the limitations of medical imaging in explaining symptoms. We discuss how over-reliance on MRI results can increase fear, catastrophizing, and confusion for patients—and how language, context, and functional diagnosis can dramatically change outcomes.Learn how to reframe pain using the ICF model, why pain does not equal tissue damage, and how PTs can shift from chasing a pain generator to treating the whole person. The episode includes a real-time patient role-play, practical communication strategies, and insights on direct access physical therapy, lifestyle factors (sleep, stress, activity), and the future of PT education.This episode is essential listening for physical therapists, manual therapists, rehab professionals, and students looking to improve patient communication, reduce fear, and deliver truly person-centered care.

This is a DEEP conversation where we discuss things like the importance of understanding one's neurodivergence, what it's like for neurodivergent people in corporate spaces and how he's doing work to help Fortune 100 companies and others create spaces where all minds can thrive. Michael has seen the qualitative and quantitative impacts of his work, repeatedly demonstrating that this work isn't just about feeling good, it can save and earn companies significant amounts of money and other resources. Michael is making an impact not only in the US but also in his home country of Ghana where many of the schools are also suffering from colonized curriculum. This is a conversation about self-discovery and acceptance as well as how companies can avoid unwittingly creating barriers to the very culture and goals they say they desire.Key PointsWe should be questioning our perceptions of intelligence, i.e. favoring memorization over demonstrated understanding.Diagnosis and self-identification of neurodivergence can be life changingNeurodivergent individuals often face unique challenges in corporate settings.Inclusive education can help change narratives around learning. Neurodivergent individuals can be highly intelligent but may struggle with traditional learning methods.Even parents can be unaware that their children may be neurodivergent.There's substantial data that demonstrates that supporting neurodivergent people has material financial benefits for companiesCoaching can help neurodivergent individuals navigate workplace challenges effectively.Neurodivergent individuals often contribute significantly to innovation and creativity.Intersectionality plays a crucial role in understanding neurodivergent experiences.Complex trauma can significantly impact neurodivergent individuals' behaviors.Helpful Links:Connect with Michael Asaku-Yeboah: https://www.linkedin.com/in/maykoi/Eisenhower Matrix: https://asana.com/resources/eisenhower-matrixNeuroNest (Under Construction as of Feb 2026): https://neurovocafrica.com/neuro/Keywordsneurodiversity, inclusion, disability management, coaching, education, corporate culture, Ghana, mental health, intersectionality, workplace inclusion, perfectionism, empathy Hosted on Acast.

It's a party weekend! Judson prepares for a friend's bachelor party in Chicago, and Brian prepares to celebrate his husband's birthday on the Saturday, and his younger daughter's on the Sunday. They attend screenings on consecutive nights of the new movie, Pillion, starring Alexander Skarsgård and Harry Melling, and compare notes with one another for the first time since. Together, Brian and Judson take a seat on The Big C*nty Couch with drag queen Gina Spears and her longtime friend Mike Fails. Our recent episode on Deshaming Sluttiness inspires a listener to submit a Hookup of the Week about his competition with a friend to see who can fill the pages of their little black books faster. Brian and Judson are then joined by star of stage and screen Jason Veasey, currently co-starring in the new comedy-drama, “Best Medicine,” on Fox and Hulu. Jason talks about the joy of being on the sets of both his current show and “Only Murders in the Building,” his desire to represent gay men our age on screen as sexual beings, and the need for more depictions of queer Black-on-Black love and sex in TV and film. He also gets personal and chats with Brian and Judson about sexual comfort levels, the value he places on sex in his relationship, being in a long-term relationship without living together, reclaiming his sexuality after his HIV diagnosis, sharing the news of his diagnosis with his family, and what it took for him to realize that he's versatile in bed. Jason then helps Brian and Judson address a Go Ask Your Dad question from a listener who wants to know how he should conduct himself around his grade school-age niblings when the MAGA members of his husband's extended family feel that kids shouldn't know that gay people exist.

In this episode of JACC This Week, Dr. Harlan M. Krumholz and Dr. Carolyn S.P. Lam discuss a dedicated issue of JACC focused on cardiac amyloidosis—one of the fastest-evolving areas in cardiovascular medicine. They explore new evidence highlighting significant delays in diagnosing ATTR cardiomyopathy, the early divergence of mortality benefit with timely treatment, and why time to diagnosis is no longer a neutral factor. The conversation also examines secondary analyses from major clinical trials, practical guidance for amyloidosis evaluation and management, and Dr. Krumholz's Editor's Page on "computable diagnosis" as a moral imperative. This episode places emerging science in clinical context, emphasizing urgency, equity, and how clinicians should be thinking differently about diagnosis, staging, and access to therapy in amyloid heart disease.

Dr. Huang's insights serve as a reminder of the importance of self-advocacy in healthcare and the impact of connection during difficult times. Tyrer- Cuzick Risk Assessment Calculator: HERE Ontario Breast Screening Program at 1-800-668-9304   Takeaways Beverly emphasizes the importance of sharing her story to empower other women. Advocacy for one's health is crucial, especially in navigating medical systems. Understanding breast density is vital for assessing risk factors for breast cancer. Women should not hesitate to self-refer for mammograms when necessary. Emotional processing of a cancer diagnosis can include anger and acceptance. Community support plays a significant role in coping with health challenges. Open conversations with loved ones about health issues can alleviate fears. Women often feel the need to buffer others' emotions during their own health crises. Self-advocacy in healthcare is essential for receiving appropriate care.

If you've been told you have PCOS (or suspect you might), you've probably been left with more questions than answers. It's one of the most misunderstood conditions out there, and a lot of people are misdiagnosed, under-treated, or given the same tired advice: “just lose weight” or “take the pill and see.” In this episode, I'm joined by endocrinologist Dr Sabrina Huq to clear things up. We talk about what PCOS actually is, how to get properly diagnosed (including the key lab tests), and why spotting it early can change your long-term health, including your ability to have a healthy, natural pregnancy. Tune in for Dr Huq's practical approach to managing PCOS through food, movement, sleep and stress, plus when meds like metformin or GLP-1s might make sense.ReferencesFlo.health Connect with Dr. Sabrina Huq:InstagramTiktokClinicAudio Stamps01:08 – Dr. Sabrina Huq introduces herself and her approach to treating PCOS patients.02:26 – What PCOS actually is and why you don't need ovarian cysts to have it.06:45 – The essential labs to diagnose PCOS and rule out serious conditions.15:15 – Diet strategies for elevated blood sugar: why breakfast and whole foods matter.22:34 – Exercise that works: strength training three times weekly and post-meal movement.27:35 – Why stress management and sleep quality are critical for PCOS symptoms.28:45 – Hidden endocrine disruptors in plastics and takeout + simple swaps to reduce exposure.32:57 – Dr. Huq's supplement approach: prenatals and vitamin D over trendy options.38:12 – What CGM reveals about insulin resistance in PCOS patients.43:06 – Why early diagnosis matters and the reality of GLP-1s for young PCOS patients.All of the information on this podcast is for general informational purposes only.

Former Nike exec Mark Hochgesang interviews Danny on Heavy Hitter Sports Podcast about MS & being an adaptive athlete. Just back from Belize! Training works. Summary My friend Mark Hochgesang, former Nike exec and host of Heavy Hitter Sports, recently interviewed me. While I usually wear my life on my sleeve on Health Hats, this conversation revealed something different—how I think about myself as an adaptive athlete. Phil Knight’s mantra: “If you have a body, you’re an athlete.” I never thought of it that way until Mark helped me see it. Training to travel? That’s athletic training. Loading a 60-pound wheelchair into an SUV? Strength work. Walking 3,500 steps a day with MS? Competition with myself. Here’s what we covered:

Welcome back to Raising Autistic Disciples! After a full year away from the mic, Larah and Colin Roberts are back with a “year in review” catch-up, a few honest laughs (yes… including the legendary Pooper Bowl anniversary), and a question Larah gets from other Christian parents all the time:“I struggle to tell people my son has autism. I want him treated like every other child. How did you handle this?”In this episode, Larah and Colin talk through the tension so many parents feel: wanting to protect your child from being defined by a diagnosis, while also realizing that hiding it can create more exhaustion, confusion, and isolation. They share practical ways they've learned to talk about autism in trusted circles, what to do when people respond with ignorant or hurtful comments, and why the gospel gives us freedom to be honest without shame.They also preview what's coming this season, including conversations with autism moms, church leaders, and friends with different perspectives—because we can disagree and still be kind… and still worship together.In this episode, we talk about: The one-year anniversary of potty training success (and why you should absolutely celebrate the wins) Graham's first airplane ride… and the “Great job, everybody. We did it!” moment A scary summer eye injury, and how it revealed something important about strong connections to people, places, and experiences Why not talking about autism can build emotional walls and make relationships harder The difference between identity in Christ and the reality of a diagnosis as a helpful “map” How to tell your trusted people before you feel like you have it all figured out What to do when family or church folks say the wrong thing (“He's not autistic… he just needs more discipline…”) Why hiding a diagnosis can actually be unkind long-term The role of the church and community: we need running partners, reminders, and perspectiveKey takeaway:Your autistic child is not something to be hidden. They are an image bearer. And the goal isn't to make autism their identity—it's to live in the freedom of truth, so others can understand, support, and walk with you.

Stacy Scarcella, a former corporate executive, transitioned to a creative entrepreneur after 13 years in fashion, advertising, and technology. Diagnosed with Marfan Syndrome at 25, she faced significant challenges, including legal blindness and potential infertility. Despite a grim prognosis, Stacy pursued self-care, research, and adaptive activities like Zumba and yoga. She emphasized the importance of self-advocacy and resilience. Stacy also works in mental health advocacy, particularly for adolescents, highlighting the need for early intervention and support. Her journey underscores the value of creativity, freedom, and positivity in overcoming health challenges. For the transcript and full story go to: https://www.drmanonbolliger.com/stacy-scarcella    Highlights from today's episode include:  Be your own health advocate and move one step at a time: When she was diagnosed with Marfan Syndrome at 25 with a very grim prognosis, Stacy chose not to stay stuck in fear. She did her own research, sought multiple opinions, adjusted her lifestyle, and focused on "What can I do right now and one minute forward?" rather than catastrophizing the future. Create freedom and possibility by redefining your path: Leaving a "boxed-in" corporate career, Stacy built Plaid Pony Productions around freedom: choosing diverse projects, not being tied to one creative partner, and continually pivoting (Zumba, yoga, events, mental health advocacy). Her core mindset  Bedside manner and medical 'fashion' can shape a patient's fate:  Manon highlights how the way a diagnosis is delivered can deeply harm or help a patient. She compares it to her own experience of being told she "needed" a C‑section because of narrow hips, only to safely have a home vaginal birth after seeking many opinions. She stresses that practitioners must be conscious of their language and the current "fashion" in medicine, because patients often meet a diagnosis first as doom and gloom, with very little visible information about alternatives, self-care, and hopeful possibilities.   ABOUT STACY SCARSELLA: For more than two decades, Stacy Scarsella has built a career defined by vision, resilience, and reinvention. A former corporate executive turned creative entrepreneur, Stacy spent over 15 years climbing the ranks in fashion, advertising, and technology working with industry giants such as Armani, Macy's, Talbots, TJX Companies, and Bose. Her career trajectory pointed toward becoming a CMO, but the demands of corporate life, constant travel, long hours, and lack of fulfillment sparked a personal reckoning. In 2015, following a season marked by profound loss and transformation, Stacy traded boardrooms for the beaches of Los Angeles, where a moment of clarity reshaped her entire future. That clarity became Plaid Pony Productions, a full-service production company known for its storytelling integrity, cinematic creativity, and world-class brand activations. From major commercial campaigns to experiential events, Stacy leads her team in producing standout work for global names including Disney, AT&T, and other Fortune 500 companies. Known for her strategic foresight and innate ability to forecast industry shifts, she's built a business that blends artistry with operational precision delivering results that can't be replicated by automation or artificial intelligence. But Stacy's story runs deeper than her professional accomplishments. Diagnosed with Marfan Syndrome at 25 and told she might never have children or live past 40, she defied every prediction. Today, at 43, she's a mother of two, a mentor, and a passionate advocate for mental health awareness and suicide prevention causes close to her heart following the loss of her best friend. Her philosophy, "Why not?", defines her approach to both business and life: embracing creativity, curiosity, and courage in the face of uncertainty. Beyond the studio, Stacy is a creative force in every sense an artist, yoga enthusiast, avid gardener, and dual citizen of Italy who finds joy in simple rituals like family dinners and dancing in the kitchen. Through speaking, consulting, and community initiatives, she now helps others humanize their brands in the age of AI, teaching entrepreneurs how to connect authentically and lead with purpose. Her work, both on and off the set, is a testament to her greatest belief: that success is not about control it's about creating a life that feels deeply alive. Core purpose/passion: My philosophy is: "Why not?", and it defines my approach to both business and life: embracing creativity, curiosity, and courage in the face of uncertainty. –  Facebook  |  Website | LinkedIn | Instagram - Stacy | Instagram - PladPony ABOUT MANON BOLLIGER, RBHT, FCAH: As a retired Naturopath 1992-2021, I saw an average of 150 patients per week and have helped people ranging from rural farmers in Nova Scotia to stressed out CEOs in Toronto to tri-athletes here in Vancouver.

Nearly 11% of U.S. adults meet criteria for a convincing food allergy, yet most clinicians underestimate both the prevalence and unique challenges of adult-onset disease. This episode addresses the frequent misdiagnosis and clinical uncertainty surrounding new symptoms in adults by highlighting epidemiology, risk factors for delayed and severe reactions, high-yield history-taking, diagnostic pitfalls, and guideline-supported use of specific IgE and component-resolved diagnostics. Listeners will learn to distinguish allergy from intolerance, understand psychosocial burdens, apply evidence-based testing algorithms, and recognize when to refer for oral food challenge or advanced management. With practical insights into differential diagnosis, best practices for test interpretation, and strategies to streamline care in busy settings, this episode equips providers to close the adult allergy diagnosis gap and optimize patient safety.

CardioNerds (Dr. Shazli Khan, Dr. Jenna Skowronski, and Dr. Shiva Patlolla) discuss the management of patients post‑heart transplantation with Dr. Shelley Hall from Baylor University Medical Center and Dr. MaryJane Farr from UTSW. In this comprehensive review, we cover the physiology of the transplanted heart, immunosuppression strategies, rejection surveillance, and long-term complications including cardiac allograft vasculopathy (CAV) and malignancy. Audio editing for this episode was performed by CardioNerds intern Dr. Bhavya Shah. Enjoy this Circulation 2022 Paths to Discovery article to learn about the CardioNerds story, mission, and values.

Pearls The Denervated Heart: The donor heart is surgically severed from the autonomic nervous system, leading to a higher resting heart rate (90-110 bpm) due to loss of vagal tone. Because the heart relies on circulating catecholamines rather than neural input to increase heart rate, patients experience a delayed chronotropic response to exercise and stress. Importantly, because afferent pain fibers are severed, ischemia is often painless. Rejection Surveillance: Rejection is classified into Acute Cellular Rejection (ACR), which is T-cell mediated, and Antibody-Mediated Rejection (AMR), which is B-cell mediated. While endomyocardial biopsy remains the gold standard for diagnosis, non-invasive surveillance using gene-expression profiling (e.g., AlloMap) and donor-derived cell-free DNA (dd-cfDNA) is increasingly utilized to reduce the burden of invasive procedures. The Infection Timeline: The risk of infection follows a predictable timeline based on the intensity of immunosuppression. The first month is dominated by nosocomial infections. Months one through six are the peak for opportunistic infections (Cytomegalovirus, Pneumocystis, Toxoplasmosis) requiring prophylaxis. After six months, patients are primarily at risk for community-acquired pathogens, though late viral reactivation can occur. Cardiac Allograft Vasculopathy (CAV): Unlike native coronary artery disease, CAV presents as diffuse, concentric intimal thickening that affects the entire length of the vessel, including the microvasculature. Due to denervation, patients rarely present with angina; instead, CAV manifests as unexplained heart failure, fatigue, or sudden cardiac death. Malignancy Risk: Long-term immunosuppression significantly increases the risk of malignancy. Skin cancers (squamous and basal cell) are the most common, followed by Post-Transplant Lymphoproliferative Disorder (PTLD), which is often driven by Epstein-Barr Virus (EBV) reactivation. Notes Notes: Notes drafted by Dr. Patlolla 1. What are the unique physiological features of the transplanted heart? The hallmark of the transplanted heart is denervation. Because the autonomic nerve fibers are severed during harvest, the heart loses parasympathetic or vagal tone, resulting in a resting tachycardia (typically 90-110 bpm). The heart also loses the ability to mount a reflex tachycardia; thus, the heart rate response to exercise or hypovolemia relies on circulating catecholamines, which results in a slower “warm-up” and “cool-down” period during exertion. 2. What are the pillars of maintenance immunosuppression regimen? The triple drug maintenance regimen typically consists of: Calcineurin Inhibitor (CNI): Tacrolimus is preferred over cyclosporine. Key side effects include nephrotoxicity, hypertension, tremor, hyperkalemia, and hypomagnesemia. Antimetabolite: Mycophenolate mofetil (MMF) inhibits lymphocyte proliferation. Key side effects include leukopenia and GI distress. Corticosteroids: Prednisone is used for maintenance but is often weaned to low doses or discontinued after the first year to mitigate metabolic side effects (diabetes, osteoporosis, weight gain). 3. How is rejection classified and diagnosed? Rejection is the immune system’s response to the foreign graft and is categorized by the arm of the immune system involved: Acute Cellular Rejection (ACR): Mediated by T-lymphocytes infiltrating the myocardium. It is graded from 1R (mild) to 3R (severe) based on the extent of infiltration and myocyte damage. Antibody-Mediated Rejection (AMR): Mediated by B-cells producing donor-specific antibodies (DSAs) that attack the graft endothelium. It is diagnosed via histology (capillary swelling) and immunofluorescence (C4d staining). Diagnosis has historically relied on endomyocardial biopsy. However, non-invasive tools are gaining traction. Gene Expression Profiling (GEP) assesses the expression of genes associated with immune activation to rule out rejection in low-risk patients. Donor-Derived Cell-Free DNA (dd-cfDNA) measures the fraction of donor DNA in the recipient’s blood. Elevated levels suggest graft injury which can occur in both ACR and AMR. 4. What is the timeline of infectious risk and how does it guide prophylaxis? Infectious risk correlates with the net state of immunosuppression. < 1 Month (Nosocomial): Risks include surgical site infections, catheter-associated infections, and aspiration pneumonia. 1 – 6 Months (Opportunistic): This is the period of peak immunosuppression. Patients are at risk for PJP, CMV, Toxoplasma, and fungal infections. Prophylaxis typically includes Trimethoprim-Sulfamethoxazole (for PJP/Toxo) and Valganciclovir (for CMV, dependent on donor/recipient serostatus). > 6 Months (Community-Acquired): As immunosuppression is weaned, the risk profile shifts toward community-acquired respiratory viruses (Influenza, RSV) and pneumonias. However, patients with recurrent rejection requiring boosted immunosuppression remain at risk for opportunistic pathogens. 5. How does Cardiac Allograft Vasculopathy (CAV) differ from native CAD? CAV is the leading cause of late graft failure. Unlike the focal, eccentric plaques seen in native atherosclerosis, CAV is an immunologically driven process causing diffuse, concentric intimal hyperplasia. It affects both epicardial vessels and the microvasculature. Because of this diffuse nature, percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) is often technically difficult and provides only temporary palliation. The only definitive treatment for severe CAV is re-transplantation. Surveillance is critical and is typically performed via annual coronary angiography, often using intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) to detect early intimal thickening before it is visible on the angiogram.

Text Dr. Lenz any feedback or questions Debunking Myths About Fibromyalgia Diagnosis: A Doctor's Reaction to Naturopathic ClaimsDr. Michael Lenz reacts to a naturopath's controversial statements about fibromyalgia diagnosis, emphasizing the importance of evidence-based medicine. He discusses the legitimacy of fibromyalgia as a real condition characterized by altered pain processing in the central nervous system. Dr. Lenz debunks myths about root causes like mold toxicity, food sensitivities, adrenal fatigue, and mitochondrial dysfunction, advocating for a holistic, science-based approach to managing these chronic invisible illnesses, also known as nociplastic pain syndromes, which fibromyalgia epitomizes.00:00 Introduction and Personal Story01:04 Controversy Around Fibromyalgia Diagnosis01:56 Understanding Fibromyalgia: Symptoms and Diagnosis03:12 Challenges with Fibromyalgia Diagnosis04:58 Functional Medicine Perspective13:39 Debunking Functional Medicine Claims15:07 Evidence-Based Solutions for Fibromyalgia18:50 Conclusion and Call to Action Support the showWhen I started this podcast and YouTube Channel—and the book that came before it—I had my patients in mind.

In this powerful and controversial episode of The Ultimate Assist, John Stockton and Ken Ruettgers are joined by Dr. Jeff Barke, a frontline physician who says he was threatened with the loss of his medical license for questioning official COVID policies and vaccine safety.Dr. Barke recounts how doctors who challenged government mandates, promoted early treatments, or raised concerns about vaccine risks were labeled as “misinformation spreaders” and censored across social media and mainstream platforms.The conversation explores:How medical dissent became grounds for punishmentWhy doctors were banned from speaking publicly about alternative COVID treatmentsThe role of government agencies, pharmaceutical companies, and mediaInformed consent and the collapse of open scientific debateChildhood and adult vaccine schedules and the data behind themWhy Dr. Barke believes censorship is more dangerous than malpracticeDr. Barke also discusses his involvement with America's Frontline Doctors, the legal battle against California's Medical Board, and why he continues speaking out despite personal and professional risks.This episode challenges the COVID narrative, raises questions about vaccine policy, and asks whether free speech still exists in modern medicine.Understanding Hypophosphatemia: Recognition, Diagnosis, and TreatmentEndocrine experts distinguish Hypophosphatemia from osteoporosis & osteomalaciaListen on: Apple Podcasts SpotifySupport the show

What happens when your body is shutting down—but every scan, lab, and specialist says they “can't find anything”? In this episode, we unpack the reality of Lyme-related neurological illness, the emotional toll of chronic disease, and what it takes to keep moving forward when healing isn't linear.We're joined by Dr. Kristi Hellenbrand, DC, chiropractor and author of Let Me Tell You a Secret…She Makes It: a Lyme survival story, who shares how a tick bite in 2020 leads to rapid neurological decline, wheelchair-level symptoms, and relentless migraines—until a clinician treats based on a clinical diagnosis and response to treatment, not just lab confirmation. Kristi walks us through the decision points that change everything: antibiotics as an early signal, later testing that reveals a viral layer, and a pivotal turn to the Horowitz protocol (including double-dose dapsone) as part of her path back to remission.Key Takeaways:03:45 Lyme can first appear as heart and neurological symptoms—not joint pain.07:15 Clinical diagnosis can move treatment forward when labs and specialists stall.10:30 Response to treatment can confirm infection before tests do.13:10 Healing from Lyme is nonlinear and follows the grief cycle.14:25 The Horowitz protocol helped resolve daily, debilitating migraines.19:15 Retracing symptoms signal healing in reverse order—not relapse.31:00 Fear is inflammatory; regulating the nervous system supports long-term recovery.Resources Mentioned:Let Me Tell You a Secret...She Makes It.: - a Lyme survival story - https://www.amazon.com/Let-Tell-You-Secret-Makes/dp/B0CJB825R1Lyme Lives Here - https://www.lymeliveshere.com/#lymewarrior #chronicillness #TheKarlfeldtCenter #IntegrativeLymeSolutionsWant to guest on our shows?Calendly Link for Integrative Lyme Solutions: https://calendly.com/drmichaelk/integrative-lyme-solutions-podcast-interviewCalendly Link for Integrative Cancer Solutions: https://calendly.com/drmichaelk/podcast-interviewCalendly Link for Dr. K Show: https://calendly.com/drmichaelk/dr-k-show-interviewBreaking Free From Lyme: A Comprehensive Guide to Healing and Recovery-URL: https://store.thekarlfeldtcenter.com/products/breaking-free-from-lyme-Price: $24.99-Discount Code: LYMEPODCASTUnleashing 10X Power: A Revolutionary Approach to Conquering Cancer-URL: https://store.thekarlfeldtcenter.com/products/unleashing-10x-power-Price: $24.99-Discount Code: CANCERPODCAST1Healing Within: Unraveling the Emotional Roots of Cancer-URL: https://store.thekarlfeldtcenter.com/products/healing-within-Price: $24.99-Discount Code: CANCERPODCAST2The Science and Spirit of Transformation: A Holistic Guide to Elevating Health, Consciousness, and Purpose-URL: https://store.thekarlfeldtcenter.com/products/the-science-and-spirit-of-transformation-Price: $24.99-Discount Code: DRKSHOWPODCAST _______________________________The Karlfeldt Center offers the most cutting-edge and comprehensive Lyme therapies.
