They expose a critical gap where women's unique, non-motor symptoms are often overlooked, resulting in twice as many women waiting five or more years for a proper diagnosis compared to men. The conversation highlights the imperative to move beyond the "cookie-cutter" approach by leveraging new, objective diagnostic tools to aid early detection, prioritizing women's inclusion in clinical research, and adopting a compassionate, integrative model that places the patient at the center of their own wellness journey.

This episode features Dr. Jaideep Banerjee, Director of Global Clinical & Medical Affairs at Smith+Nephew, discussing the challenges of chronic wound care, the importance of standardized evidence-based practices, and insights from his recent large-scale study on enzymatic debridement. Dr. Banerjee shares strategies for improving patient outcomes, reducing costs, and building a strong foundation for long-term healing.This episode is sponsored by Smith+Nephew.Important Safety InformationIndication: Collagenase SANTYL Ointment (“SANTYL”) is indicated for debriding chronic dermal ulcers and severely burned areas. Contraindications: SANTYL is contraindicated in patients who have shown local or systemic hypersensitivity to collagenase. Warnings and Precautions: The optimal pH range of collagenase is 6 to 8. Higher or lower pH conditions will decrease the enzyme's activity and appropriate precautions should be taken. The enzymatic activity is also adversely affected by certain detergents, and heavy metal ions such as mercury and silver which are used in some antiseptics. As such, the wound should be properly cleansed prior to application of SANTYL. Debilitated patients should be closely monitored for systemic bacterial infections because of the theoretical possibility that debriding enzymes may increase the risk of bacteremia. A slight transient erythema has been noted occasionally in the surrounding tissue, particularly when SANTYL was not confined to the wound. SANTYL is not indicated for wound closure. Discontinue use of SANTYL after granulation tissue is well-established. Adverse Reactions: No allergic sensitivity or toxic reactions have been noted in clinical use when used as directed. The risk information provided herein is not comprehensive. To see the complete Prescribing Information, please see the FDA-approved product labeling, here: https://www.santyl.com/pdf/SANTYL-PI.pdf. You are encouraged to report negative side effects of prescription drugs to the FDA. Visit MedWatch or call 1-800-FDA-1088.

Before she turned eight, Cerys had already faced two diagnoses, only one of which she truly understood. While being diagnosed with celiac disease as a child, unusually high CK levels in her blood pointed to a deeper issue: limb-girdle muscular dystrophy type 2I/R9 (LGMD2I/R9). In this episode of On Rare, David Rintell, Head of Patient Advocacy at BridgeBio, and Mandy Rohrig, Senior Director of Patient Advocacy at BridgeBio Gene Therapy, speak with Cerys, a 23-year-old living in Wales, about living with LGMD2I/R9. She shares how she's navigated symptom progression, adapted to using mobility aids, and discovered the power of telling her story through her podcast, Unbalanced. When Cerys was first diagnosed with LGMD2I/R9 at age seven 7 years old, she didn't fully understand the diagnosis. Her parents carried the emotional weight, trying to protect her from fear of what was ahead. It wasn't until her muscle weakness became impossible to ignore, at 12 years old, that the condition began to define her daily life. From navigating stairs and driving to embracing a wheelchair, Cerys has had to adapt physically, emotionally, and socially, all while managing her energy levels so that she can continue to do the activities she loves. She finds strength in the LGMD community and hope in research, representation, and connection. In 2023, she launched Unbalanced to amplify stories like hers because growing up, she didn't see anyone with a disability who looked like her. Now, she's determined to be that voice for others. Dr. Anna Talaga, Director of Medical Affairs at ML Bio Solutions (a BridgeBio affiliate), provides a medical overview of LGMD. LGMDs are a group of genetic diseases that cause progressive muscle weakness and wasting, particularly in the shoulders, hips, and thighs. In some people, the heart and respiratory muscles may be impacted. Unlike many genetic conditions that are caused by a mutation in a single gene, LGMD can result from mutations in many different genes because they all affect the same protein complex that supports and stabilizes muscle fibers. LGMD type 2I/R9 (LGMD2I/R9), specifically, is caused by mutations in the FKRP gene, which is critical for maintaining muscle fiber integrity. Diagnosis typically begins with symptoms like difficulty walking, climbing stairs, or standing from a seated position, and is confirmed through genetic testing. LGMD2I/R9 is a progressive disease and there are currently no approved treatments that slow or stop its progression.

In this eye-opening conversation, we sit down with Dr. Ingrid Skop — a board-certified OB/GYN and Vice President of Medical Affairs at the Charlotte Lozier Institute — to unpack the critical issues surrounding women's health care. Dr. Skop shares her firsthand medical insight on the realities of abortion procedures, the risks of substandard care, and what women really need when facing unplanned pregnancies.We explore alternatives to abortion clinics, the importance of parental involvement laws, and the decline of essential services like cancer screenings and contraception. With compassion and clarity, Dr. Skop sheds light on what true, comprehensive care looks like — and how we can better support women both physically and emotionally.This is a conversation about facts, not politics. About healing, not headlines. And most of all, about the value of every woman and every life.https://lozierinstitute.org/team-member/ingrid-skop-m-d-facog/Recent News Summary:Leading up to a major budget vote in Congress, the U.S. House Rules Committee held an intense 21-hour hearing packed with high-profile Democratic leaders — including Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries, House Whip Katherine Clark, and former Speaker Nancy Pelosi — pushing for amendments that included increased welfare spending without work requirements and continued funding for Planned Parenthood.One of the central points of contention was the claim that proposed budget cuts represented the “largest cut to health care in American history.” Critics argue that equating abortion with healthcare is misleading and point to serious concerns about Planned Parenthood's practices.Reports — including a disturbing exposé from The New York Times — have shed light on troubling conditions in some Planned Parenthood facilities, including botched procedures, leaking sewage, and poor medical oversight. These revelations come amid ongoing scrutiny of the organization's influence and funding, with statistics showing:    Nearly 400,000 abortions annually performed by Planned Parenthood — about 40% of all abortions in the U.S.    A 97% abortion rate for pregnant women who visit their clinics.    A decline in other services: cancer screenings, pap smears, and contraception services have all dropped sharply.    $2 million per day in taxpayer funding still flows to the organization, despite these declines.    Meanwhile, over 5 women have reportedly died from complications related to abortions performed there.Critics also highlight that there are over 15 times more community health centers nationwide that provide broader, life-affirming care without performing abortions — offering a more comprehensive and safer option for women in need.House Speaker Mike Johnson vowed to push the bill through by July 4th, saying the time has come to redirect federal resources toward truly compassionate and high-quality women's healthcare.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/i-am-refocused-radio--2671113/support.

Sometimes the signs of heart trouble in women don't look like what we expect—they show up as hot flashes, brain fog, or even a racing heart. When I sat down with Dr. Jayne Morgan, an incredible Cardiologist and Women's Health Advocate, we talked about how these often-overlooked symptoms during menopause can actually be clues about what's going on with your heart. We're so used to brushing things off as “just hormones,” but Dr. Jayne explains why now is the time to tune in and take them seriously. Dr. Jayne —who's not only a top Cardiologist but also Vice President of Medical Affairs at Hello Heart—is passionate about making sure women get the full picture when it comes to heart health. She breaks down how estrogen protects your heart, what happens when those levels drop, and why menopause can be a turning point for understanding your risk. We also talked about what real, thorough heart testing should include (because yes, there's more to it than just cholesterol). Her approach is practical, empowering, and honestly—something every woman deserves to hear. Women need to feel empowered, not dismissed, when they bring up symptoms—and that starts with education. We're talking about prevention, clarity, and how to stop second-guessing what your body's trying to tell you.
