Can artificial intelligence help uncover what short medical appointments and isolated symptom checkers often miss?Haresh Patel joins Dr. Michael Haley to explore the mind-body connection, root-cause healthcare, and why a patient's complete life story may contain important clues about chronic illness.Haresh spent 55 years searching for answers to a complex collection of symptoms. His journey included suspected food allergies, chronic urticaria, repeated specialist visits, expensive symptom-suppressing treatments, childhood trauma, unresolved grief, and an unexpected experience that changed the course of his health.The turning point came when practitioners stopped looking only at his current symptoms and began asking about his entire history.In this episode, Haresh explains why medical records, injuries, diet, stress, emotional experiences, major life events, and physical symptoms may need to be examined together rather than separately. He also introduces Sanare Health, an AI-assisted platform designed to help patients organize their histories into practitioner-ready summaries.Sanare Health is not intended to diagnose illness, prescribe treatment, or replace a qualified healthcare professional. Its purpose is to help patients communicate a more complete story and help practitioners recognize patterns that might otherwise remain hidden.IN THIS EPISODE, YOU'LL HEAR ABOUT:• Why complex health problems are difficult to understand during brief medical appointments• Haresh's misdiagnosed food allergy and eventual diagnosis of chronic urticaria• The possible connections among stress, grief, emotional patterns, and physical symptoms• Why a chronological health story may reveal patterns that individual tests do not• How AI can help patients organize medical records, symptoms, treatments, and life events• Why asking the right questions is essential when using artificial intelligence• How Sanare Health is designed to support both patients and practitioners• Tinnitus, Diet Coke, candy, and recognizing personal symptom triggers• Why some processing aids and sub-ingredients may not appear on product labels• The value of considering conventional, functional, Ayurvedic, and alternative perspectives• Why Haresh encourages people to become the CEO of their own health• Learning to express grief, laughter, and emotion later in lifeABOUT HARESH PATELHaresh Patel is an entrepreneur, author, and the founder and CEO of Sanare Health. Before entering the healthcare technology space, he spent decades building Silicon Valley technology companies, including Mercatus, a private-markets financial technology platform that was acquired by State Street.His memoir, The Ghost in My Body, documents his decades-long search for health answers, the childhood loss of his mother, and the experiences that inspired his work.EPISODE CHAPTERS00:00 What symptom checkers may be missing00:42 Haresh Patel's 55-year search for answers04:26 Why chronic symptoms can remain unexplained06:12 The limitations of brief medical appointments09:18 Becoming the CEO of your own health10:08 Misdiagnosed allergies and chronic urticaria13:10 The Ayurvedic doctor who asked different questions15:04 When did your stress first begin?17:32 Childhood bullying, loss, and emotional disconnection18:51 A spiritual explanation for physical symptoms19:58 Traveling to Bodh Gaya23:13 What happened after the ritual23:57 The mental, emotional, and spiritual sides of health26:02 How Sanare Health uses artificial intelligence28:57 The doctor who examined Haresh's whole story30:52 A platform for patients and practitioners34:32 Can AI remain open to alternative healthcare?36:28 Tinnitus and root-cause investigation40:09 Diet Coke, candy, and tinnitus triggers43:10 Using pattern recognition to identify triggers43:32 Hidden ingredients in processed products45:21 Aloe vera, natural health, and supporting the body47:26 The long-term cost of managing chronic disease49:53 Haresh's call to take control of your health52:43 Learning to express emotion, cry, and laugh55:30 Final thoughtsRESOURCESEpisode Show Notes:https://drhaley.com/mind-body-root-cause-ai/Haresh Patel's Website:https://hareshpatel.ai/Sanare Health:https://sanarehealth.ai/The Ghost in My Body by Haresh Patel:https://amzn.to/4uAczTWHaresh Patel on LinkedIn:https://www.linkedin.com/in/hareshpatel/DiagnosticMD on YouTube:https://www.youtube.com/@mydiagnosticmdHaresh Patel on Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/mydiagnosticmd/Watch the Video Version:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l-aBzGqBSv8Explore Haley Nutrition:https://haleynutrition.com/LISTENER OFFER FOR JUNE 2026Save $20 on a Haley Nutrition purchase of $200 or more with coupon code THRIVE.Visit:https://haleynutrition.com/The offer applies during June 2026 and may be used with sale-priced and already-discounted bundled products.If this episode made you think of someone who has been searching for answers to unexplained symptoms, please share it with them.Subscribe to The Dr. Haley Show for more conversations about natural health, nutrition, gut health, root-cause thinking, emerging healthcare technology, and unconventional ideas that deserve a closer look.MEDICAL DISCLAIMERThis podcast is provided for educational and informational purposes only.

What if your headaches are actually coming from your neck?In this episode of the Headache Doctor Podcast, Dr. Taves breaks down one of the most overlooked—and most important—headache diagnoses: cervicogenic headache.A cervicogenic headache simply means a headache that originates from the neck. Yet despite being incredibly common, it's often missed, misdiagnosed, or mistaken for migraines, occipital neuralgia, vestibular disorders, and other headache conditions.Dr. Taves explains why traditional imaging often misses the problem, how the upper neck can refer pain into the head and face, and why understanding the source of your symptoms is critical for finding lasting relief.We cover:What a cervicogenic headache actually isWhy neck problems are frequently overlookedHow neck dysfunction can create migraine-like symptomsWhy X-rays and MRIs often miss the root issueThe connection between cervicogenic headaches and dizzinessHow the three-spoke framework helps uncover the real cause of symptomsIf you've been told your scans are normal but you still have headaches, migraines, dizziness, or pain behind the eye, this episode may change the way you think about your symptoms.

What if everything you were told about your fertility, wasn't the full picture? In today's episode, I'm sitting down with my client Brittany, who takes us behind the scenes of a journey that began with a PCOS diagnosis, one that didn't fully reflect what was actually happening in her body. This diagnosis was then followed by a devastating miscarriage and mounting pressure to move forward with IUI. But her story didn't end there. What unfolded instead will challenge what you think you know about fertility diagnoses and timelines and what can shift when you get access to the right testing and work with someone who looks beyond just medical interventions. We talk about the moment everything changed, when deeper testing revealed that her hormone levels didn't align with a PCOS diagnosis at all, and instead pointed to an entirely different root cause. We dive into her protocol that followed her comprehensive hormone testing, and the tension she navigated between her impatience to move forward with treatment and learning to trust me, the process and her body along the way. Not that long ago, Brittany was exactly where you might be right now, searching for answers, weighing her options, and wondering what to do next. But when you trust your gut, find the right practitioner, and continue to surround yourself with success stories like hers, you're getting one step closer to getting and staying pregnant.

Is brick-and-mortar retail really dying? After months analyzing 13 years of U.S. Census retail data, this episode uncovers Kathy's new report available for download, "Brick and Mortar Independent Retail Isn't Dying. It's Misdiagnosed." that covers what's actually happening behind the headlines. The findings reveal a far more nuanced story about independent retail, business closures, growth cycles, and why the industry may be misdiagnosed rather than disappearing. If you own, work in, or care about indie retail, this conversation will challenge the narrative you've been told.

In this episode of Accelerated Health with Sara Banta, I'm joined by Dr. Fenwa Milhouse and Heather Florio to talk about why so many women are repeatedly diagnosed with UTIs when the root cause may be something entirely different.Millions of women suffer from chronic urinary symptoms like burning, urgency, frequency, pelvic pain, and discomfort — only to be prescribed endless rounds of antibiotics that never fully solve the problem. Dr. Milhouse and Heather explain why many of these cases are often misdiagnosed and how underlying issues such as pelvic floor dysfunction, hormonal imbalances, inflammation, vaginal health changes, and other hidden factors may actually be driving the symptoms.We also discuss the dangers of overusing antibiotics, why traditional testing can miss the full picture, and what women need to know to finally get answers and proper support.If you've been struggling with chronic urinary symptoms, recurring infections, pelvic discomfort, or unresolved women's health issues, this episode is a must-listen.Follow our guests:• Dr. Fenwa Milhouse Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/drmilhouse • Heather Florio Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/hmflorio Supplements Featured In This Episode:• Acceleradine® Iodine https://www.acceleratedhealthproducts.com/products/acceleradine-iodine-supplement • Accelerated Methylene Blue® https://www.acceleratedhealthproducts.com/products/accelerated-methylene-blue-supplement Not sure what food to eat and avoid?

If your body has started feeling unfamiliar in midlife, your sleep is off, your libido has changed, your skin feels drier, or intimacy feels different, it is easy to think it is stress, aging, or something wrong with you. But the harder truth is that no one prepared you for how much estrogen decline can affect your body, your confidence, and even your relationship, so you are left trying to make sense of changes that should have been explained to you years ago.We dive deeper into this in The Well Drop with Sally Mueller. We also chat about how to recognize which symptoms may actually be tied to hormonal changes, what vaginal and skin care should look like in midlife, and how to find the right support, products, and conversations so you stop guessing and start caring for your body with clarity.Sally Mueller is the co-founder of Womaness and spent over 24 years building and scaling major consumer brands, including leadership roles at Target. After experiencing perimenopause herself and seeing how few modern, effective solutions existed for women in midlife, she built Womaness to address the symptoms women were not being prepared for, making her a credible voice on what women actually need during this stage.What's Discussed: (3:50) Why libido loss is the most unspoken struggle (5:10) The connection between estrogen, dryness, and UTIs (6:25) Why these changes are affecting relationships more than women realize (9:14) How estrogen impacts your skin from head to toe (11:36) Why midlife skin suddenly feels dry and harder to manage (17:06) The difference between lubricants and vaginal moisturizers (18:35) Why vaginal hydration should be part of daily care (21:15) Reframing midlife as a powerful second chapter (24:46) The first steps to take when your body starts to feel off (26:21) Why you may need to find a different doctor (27:30) How hormones affect your entire body, not just one symptom (31:00) The role of community and real support in midlifeListen to this episode of The Well Drop and finally connect the dots on why your body feels different, why certain symptoms are showing up now, and what you can actually do about them so you are not left second-guessing yourself, your health, or your relationship.

What happens when your country's medical system refuses to believe you have the disease that's destroying your life? In this episode of Integrative Lyme Solutions, Dr. K sits down with Lachlan Onegin-Ward, a marine biologist and wildlife conservationist from Australia who contracted Lyme disease after being bitten by 17 ticks on a snake-spotting trip south of Sydney. What followed was a years-long battle not just against Bartonella, Rickettsia, and Babesia — but against a medical system that handed him antacids instead of answers. Lachlan shares the raw reality of fighting Lyme disease in a country that officially denies its existence, navigating a healthcare system that left him bedridden, seizing, and unable to move his arms — all while spending tens of thousands of dollars chasing a diagnosis. He opens up about the neurological relapse triggered by COVID, the PTSD of living with an invisible illness, losing close friends who couldn't understand what they couldn't see, and the grassroots mission he's now on to make sure no other Australian has to go through this alone.

What does it look like to lose your sense of direction—and slowly find your way back? In this episode of the Starter Girlz Podcast, Jennifer Loehding sits down with recording artist Dylan Garcia for a real conversation about identity, mental health, and what it takes to rebuild when life doesn't go as planned. Dylan opens up about being misdiagnosed and navigating years of confusion, internal struggle, and unhealthy coping patterns—all while trying to make sense of who he was and where he was going. Through it all, music remained a constant—eventually becoming the outlet that helped him reconnect with himself. But this conversation goes beyond one experience. It explores what it means to evolve as a creator in a world driven by metrics, where followers and numbers can easily take priority over meaning. Dylan shares his perspective on staying grounded in authenticity, resisting the pressure to chase validation, and committing to the long game—even when progress feels slow. From sobriety and songwriting to creative discipline and trusting your instincts, this episode offers a thoughtful look at rebuilding your life in a way that actually feels aligned.

Hey, Heal Squad! If you've ever wondered whether you might have ADHD this episode is going to hit. We sat down with Dr. Steven Storage, a board-certified adult and child psychiatrist at Amen Clinics, and he completely reframed what ADHD actually is and what it isn't. Because here's the thing: ADHD isn't just about focus. It's about how your brain regulates attention, energy, and emotion and for so many people, it's been misunderstood or missed entirely. Dr. Storage breaks down why ADHD is often misdiagnosed as anxiety or depression, especially in people who are high-functioning and “getting by” on the outside, but internally feel overwhelmed, disorganized, or exhausted from working twice as hard. Instead of giving a simple checklist, he explains why there's no one-size-fits-all test for ADHD and why it's more about recognizing patterns over time. In fact, he walks us through seven key patterns that might signal ADHD, including things like struggling to start tasks unless you're excited about them and dealing with chronic disorganization! We also get into why ADHD can actually come with some powerful strengths like creativity, intuition, and big-picture thinking! Maria had so many “wait…that's me” moments in this conversation, and honestly, you probably will too! HEALERS & HEAL LINERS ADHD Isn't About Focus, It's About Regulation: Your brain struggles to regulate attention, energy, and emotion. That's why you can hyper-focus on what you love, but feel stuck or overwhelmed with everything else. ADHD Misdiagnosed: So many people are treated for anxiety or depression first, when ADHD is actually the root cause. If you've been “getting by” but working twice as hard, it's worth looking deeper. Your Brain Isn't Broken, It's Different: ADHD brains can be incredibly powerful: creative, intuitive, big-picture thinkers. The goal isn't to “fix” yourself. it's to understand how your brain works and learn how to work with it.

She wasn't depressed. She was manic. And her doctor put her on antidepressants anyway.Alessandra Torresani — actress (Caprica, The Big Bang Theory, American Horror Story) and NAMI ambassador — spent over a decade misdiagnosed before learning she had Bipolar I Disorder. In this episode, she joins me to unpack what that decade cost her, how she got stable, and what she wishes every patient knew before walking into a psychiatrist's office.Alessandra brings firsthand experience managing Bipolar I Disorder, including more than three years off all psychiatric medication through pregnancy and breastfeeding. Drawing on my 11 years of clinical psychiatry before moving into regenerative medicine, we cover antidepressant-induced mania and its link to suicidal ideation, why bipolar disorder is routinely misdiagnosed as ADHD, and the symptom-tracking method that shortens the path to an accurate diagnosis. Alessandra walks through the non-pharmaceutical tools that kept her stable through pregnancy: transcendental meditation, breathwork, hypnobirthing, menstrual cycle tracking, clean nutrition, and ballet. I share emerging research on stem cell therapy for alcohol addiction, including animal studies showing up to 80% reduction in drinking behavior, along with how GLP-1 medications and NAD IV infusions are being used to reduce cravings and ease opiate withdrawal.We also get into the overprescription of stimulants like Adderall in young children, and why ruling out lifestyle factors — sleep, nutrition, screen time — should come before a prescription pad.And Alessandra shares why, despite being told speaking openly about her diagnosis would cost her her career, she refused to stay quiet.We talk about:• 00:00 Misdiagnosed with bipolar her whole life• 03:06 The myth that bipolar equals creativity• 04:30 Hiding a bipolar diagnosis in Hollywood• 06:32 Early childhood anxiety and perfectionism at age 5• 08:00 Why bipolar disorder takes 10–12 years to diagnose• 15:39 Antidepressant-induced mania and suicidal ideation• 17:24 Identifying bipolar I disorder in adulthood• 19:42 Managing bipolar without medication during pregnancy• 34:26 Tracking symptoms before starting psychiatric medication• 38:42 Stem cell therapy reduces alcohol cravings in studies• 40:46 GLP-1s and NAD IV therapy for addiction recovery• 43:52 NAMI resources for postpartum depression and anxiety
The Medical Disruptor exists for one reason: to give patients free access to clinicians who are brave enough to tell the truth. No products. No upsells. Just board-certified doctors who trained inside the system and eventually hit a wall it could not explain. Dr. Ali Elahi is one of them. A neurologist with nearly two decades of conventional practice, he watched the same patients cycle through the same appointments, collect the same normal results, and leave with the same antidepressants while their brains quietly declined. In this episode, we dig into why memory loss and cognitive decline are routinely dismissed as depression or stress, how pharmaceutical money shapes what neurologists are taught, and why a clinically supported brain treatment called transcranial magnetic stimulation stays hidden from the patients who need it most. This is the conversation your neurologist was never trained to have with you. What we cover: -Why early dementia is so often misdiagnosed as depression or anxiety -How pharmaceutical influence quietly shapes neurology training -What TMS is and what decades of evidence actually show -Why most TMS clinics are cutting corners and how to spot one that is not -The six questions every patient should ask before starting treatment -Why the window for early intervention matters more than most doctors admit Want more practical health tips?

Maternal mental health is a critical yet often misunderstood part of the postpartum experience, and this conversation shines light on an important topic many parents may not fully understand: perinatal and postnatal OCD. Amy is joined by Betty Flores, LCSW, PMH-C, and Justine Rae Murray, LCSW—two therapists who specialize in perinatal and postnatal mental health and obsessive-compulsive disorder. Betty and Justine share how their own postpartum experiences led them to pursue additional training in perinatal and postnatal mental health. Both women are passionate about helping parents understand their postpartum experiences, recognize that they are not alone, and access the support they need to feel better.Betty and Justine break down what OCD is and how it often involves intrusive thoughts or images that feel distressing and repetitive, followed by compulsive behaviors or mental rituals. While many parents experience the occasional intrusive thought and are able to move along with their day, Betty and Justine describe OCD as feeling “stuck” in the stickiness of intrusive thoughts, not able to move past the thought. Many moms feel ashamed or afraid to speak openly about intrusive thoughts, which can delay diagnosis and treatment. Betty and Justine also emphasize an important message: postpartum OCD is treatable with ERP therapy. Help is available, and you don't need to walk through this alone.If you have a loved one walking through perinatal or postnatal OCD, Betty and Justine encourage you to seek education, have compassion, and demonstrate patience. Understanding what OCD actually is, and offering a supportive, nonjudgmental presence, can make a powerful difference for someone working through intrusive thoughts and OCD.

What happens when Lyme disease is repeatedly dismissed even when the symptoms are clear? In this episode of Integrative Lyme Solutions, Dr. K speaks with Lyme advocate Amy Rose, who spent more than eight years searching for answers after being infected by a tick bite in 2008. Within days she developed severe flu-like symptoms and later discovered a large bullseye rash on her shoulder. Despite these classic warning signs, doctors repeatedly told her Lyme disease was impossible because she had been bitten in Arkansas. Multiple tests came back negative and she was given numerous misdiagnoses and medications instead of answers. Amy shares how her health continued to decline while she saw 27 doctors before finally receiving a proper diagnosis from a Lyme-literate practitioner. She also explains how this experience led her to start the Arkansas Lyme Foundation to support patients in a state where Lyme disease is still widely denied. Her story reveals the serious gaps in Lyme testing, the consequences of misdiagnosis, and the power of patient advocacy. Key Takeaways: 0:00 Introduction 2:15 Amy Rose's Lyme infection and early symptoms in 2008 6:40 The bullseye rash and why Lyme was still missed 10:30 Five negative tests through Labcorp and misdiagnosis 16:50 Neurological Lyme and being misdiagnosed with Alzheimer's 22:10 Losing the ability to drive due to brain inflammation 26:30 Finding a Lyme-literate doctor after seeing 27 physicians 32:45 Starting the Arkansas Lyme Foundation 38:20 Why Arkansas still denies Lyme disease exists 44:15 Reaching remission and focusing on cellular health and mold detox Resources Mentioned: Arkansas Lyme Foundation - https://www.arkansaslyme.org/ Labcorp - https://www.labcorp.com/ Medical Disclaimer: This content is for educational purposes only and is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or replace professional medical advice.

Lee, MD sits down with Anthony, friend and guest host, for an extraordinary conversation about the root causes of mental health struggles, the spiritual dimension of healing, and why the current system often misses the soul entirely. From growing up in a culture where men were told to “suck it up” to exploring a new paradigm of emotional truth, this conversation is a testament to the power of awareness, authentic healing, and remembering who we truly are.Dr. Lee shares how his own lived experience with deep suffering transformed the way he understands depression, anxiety, grief, addiction, ADHD, and spiritual awakening, emphasizing the importance of treating the whole person rather than simply managing symptoms. This episode dives deep into the limitations of modern psychiatry, the connection between intuition and anxiety, and how safe spaces, community, and soul-centered awareness can open the door to profound healing for individuals and families seeking transformation.Sacred Truths & Lessons from This Episode:• Mental health healing begins at the root, not the symptom• Grief is unexpressed love, and feeling it is part of healing• Addiction often points to unresolved trauma beneath the surface• Children are not broken—they may be deeply sensitive and spiritually aware• Authentic connection, community, and purpose are powerful medicine• Bringing the soul back into psychiatry can change everything

In this episode of SHE MD, Mary Alice Haney and Dr. Thaïs Aliabadi sit down with Dr. Steven Storage to unpack one of the most common mental health misdiagnoses affecting women today: ADHD being mistaken for anxiety or depression. Dr. Storage explains why ADHD is often overlooked in girls and women, and how many patients spend years being treated for anxiety before discovering the real cause of their symptoms.The conversation explores how ADHD can present differently in women, including emotional overwhelm, chronic stress, brain fog, and difficulty focusing. Dr. Storage also discusses the role of brain imaging in ADHD diagnosis and how different brain patterns may require different treatment approaches, highlighting why traditional symptom checklists often miss the full picture.They also discuss how hormonal changes, especially during perimenopause, can intensify ADHD symptoms, which is why many women first seek answers later in life. This episode sheds light on the importance of accurate diagnosis and brain-based approaches to better support women navigating ADHD.Subscribe to SHE MD Podcast for expert tips on PCOS, endometriosis, fertility, hormonal balance, mental health, and more.

Growing up in Southern California, he saw family members with preventable disease go uncared for, struggled in school, and was misdiagnosed with severe ADD in middle school before a later diagnosis of a comprehension disability. After being told in sixth grade he wouldn't amount to much, a continuation school, his mother's advocacy, and a teacher's attention kept him afloat.At UC Davis, an outreach email changed everything, placing him in a lab for four years and opening the door to both science and medicine. A friend introduced him to MD-PhD resources, and shadowing an orthopedic surgeon turned interest into excitement. Chris shares how he built an enduring motivation by reframing medicine as a currency for service, with a commitment to community, including Indigenous communities.He breaks down the hardest premed task—articulating Why Medicine—and the post-it exercise that helped him find a coherent thread. Applying during the first COVID cycle, he earned 16 interview invites and 9–10 acceptances by presenting a clear why and tangible research work. We also discuss advocacy for more GME positions in Indian country and his interest in dermatology and leading a lab.If you've ever been told you won't make it, this conversation offers practical ways to keep going.What You'll Learn:- How a misdiagnosis and school setbacks were addressed and reframed- Ways to access research and mentorship through outreach programs- A practical method to build a coherent Why Medicine- What made his MD-PhD application make sense and earn 16 interviews- Using community and advocacy to sustain motivation

Was the 2008 Housing Crisis Misdiagnosed? Kevin Erdmann on Supply, Policy, and the Myths We Still BelieveYou don't have to agree with every conclusion—but you do need to understand the argument.What if the biggest mistake of the 2008 financial crisis wasn't reckless lending or mass overbuilding—but a fundamental misdiagnosis of the problem itself?In this episode, we speak with Kevin Erdmann, senior scholar at the Mercatus Center and author of Shut Out, whose research challenges the mainstream narrative of the Great Financial Crisis.___________________________________________________Subscribe to Do You Ever Wonder for deep, non-consensus conversations on housing, real estate, policy, capital markets, and much more!Like, comment, and share if this episode challenges your assumptions.____________________________________________________Erdmann argues that the U.S. did not suffer from a nationwide housing oversupply in the 2000s. Instead, America entered the crisis with too few homes in the places people most wanted to live—and policymakers responded to the crash by tightening credit and regulation in ways that deepened the downturn and locked in today's housing shortages.This is a calm, data-driven conversation—not a hot take—about how housing supply, migration, zoning, and financial policy interacted in ways we still misunderstand.Topics discussed:Why Erdmann believes the U.S. never had a classic national housing bubbleThe difference between “closed-access” cities (NYC, SF, LA) and “contagion” cities (Phoenix, Florida markets)How migration and regional price signals distorted national narrativesWhy post-2008 credit tightening and regulation worsened the recessionWhat policymakers got wrong about housing risk and financial stabilityHow zoning laws and NIMBYism turned housing scarcity into a long-term crisisWhether today's housing market resembles 2006–2007—or something entirely differentWho bore the real costs of housing shortages—and who benefitedWhat investors, homebuyers, and policymakers are still misunderstanding todayWhy this matters nowWith housing affordability stretched, supply constrained, and rates reshaping demand, Erdmann's framework offers a critical lens for understanding:Why prices remain highWhy building hasn't kept up with demandWhy repeating old policy assumptions could make today's crisis worseYou don't have to agree with every conclusion—but you do need to understand the argument.Subscribe to Do You Ever Wonder for deep, non-consensus conversations on housing, real estate, policy, capital markets, and much more!Like, comment, and share if this episode challenges your assumptions.___________________________________________________Please subscribe to Do You Ever Wonder using the two links below, and don't be shy about sharing the podcast with your friends.Subscribe to Do You Ever Wonder on YouTube here: / @doyoueverwonder943 Subscribe on your favorite streaming platform here: https://www.buzzsprout.com/1862986 _______________________________________________Hallmark Abstract Service...You Buy Real Estate, We Protect It!Questions about the podcast, NY title insurance, or the RE transaction process?

New Hampshire-based Tammie Robie's health issues appear to have started during her teenage years and continued, with increasing intensity, until just a few years ago. Over the years, Tammie saw doctors and specialists, had test after test after test, and followed a variety of prescription protocols. But her symptoms persisted: high blood pressure, a spiking heartrate, migraines, water retention in her face and legs. But, throughout, she ran and went after big racing goals. Even with all these health problems, Tammie was able to earn her spot on several pro/elite marathon start lines, and she had some notable race success. In particular, she ran a marathon PR of 2:49 at the 2010 Houston Marathon. For context, the Olympic Trials Marathon qualifying standard at that time was 2:46. But there were also the ongoing struggles and many deeply disappointing race days. The root cause of Tammie's condition remained a mystery for many, many years. In the end, it was discovered by chance. And today, she is cured. Tammie tells her story in much greater detail in her book, Misdiagnosed for Miles: A Competitive Runner's Journey through Misdiagnosis and Discovery. This episode follows that story.Tammie's journey is remarkable and heartbreaking, and it shows grit and determination that is stunning. Throughout, Tammie's love of running is a steady companion.Mentioned in This EpisodeMisdiagnosed for Miles, blog and links to book: misdiagnosedformiles.comTo support WRS, please rate and review the showiTunes/Apple: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/womens-running-stories/id1495427631Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/4F8Hr2RysbV4fdwNhiMAXc?si=1c5e18155b4b44faMusic CreditsCormac O'Regan, of PlaytohComa-Media, via Pixabaychillmore, via Pixabayaidanpinsent, via PixabayRoyaltyFreeMusic, via Pixabaypenguinmusic, via PixabayAlexGrohl, via PixabayPaulYudin, via PixabayRomanBelov, via PixabayWays to Connect and Engage with Women's Running StoriesWRS Instagram: @womensrunningstoriesFacebook: facebook.com/WomensRunningStoriesWebsite: womensrunningstories.com

Avoidant Restrictive Food Intake Disorder does not end in childhood. Many adults live for years, even decades, with ARFID that goes unnamed, misunderstood, or incorrectly treated. In this solo episode, Dr. Marianne Miller explores why ARFID in adults is so often missed, how misdiagnosis shapes harmful care pathways, and what adult-appropriate support actually requires. This conversation centers adults who never felt seen in eating disorder spaces, who were told their struggles were anxiety, habits, or personality traits, and who learned to adapt quietly rather than receive care that fit. Why ARFID in Adults Is Frequently Missed ARFID still gets framed as a childhood diagnosis in many clinical settings. When adults present with long-standing food avoidance, fear of adverse consequences, or limited food variety, providers often overlook ARFID entirely. This section explores how outdated training and pediatric-focused models contribute to delayed recognition and missed diagnosis. Common Misdiagnoses That Delay ARFID Treatment Adults with ARFID are frequently misdiagnosed with anorexia, generalized anxiety disorders, gastrointestinal conditions, or trauma responses. Dr. Miller explains how weight-centered assumptions and surface-level assessments obscure the nervous system and sensory drivers of ARFID, leading to treatment that does not address the real issue. Why So Many Adults Go Untreated for Years Many adults with ARFID become highly skilled at adapting. They plan their lives around food access, avoid social eating, and manage significant cognitive and emotional labor behind the scenes. Because this adaptation often looks like functioning, providers underestimate the depth of distress and delay appropriate intervention. Neurodivergence, Trauma, and Medical History in Adult ARFID ARFID in adults frequently overlaps with neurodivergence, chronic illness, trauma, and complex medical experiences. This episode discusses how sensory processing differences, interoceptive challenges, and past food-related or medical harm shape adult eating patterns and must be addressed in care. What Adult-Appropriate ARFID Care Actually Looks Like Effective ARFID treatment for adults requires flexibility, collaboration, and respect for autonomy. Dr. Miller outlines why rigid eating disorder models often fail adults with ARFID and what support looks like when it centers nervous system safety, lived experience, and real-world practicality. Late Diagnosis Does Not Mean Failure If you received an ARFID diagnosis later in life, or are only now recognizing yourself in this conversation, this section offers validation. Delayed diagnosis reflects systemic gaps, not personal shortcomings. There is no expiration date on care, understanding, or support.

Support and Resources Dr. Marianne shares information about her virtual, self-paced, ARFID and Selective Eating course, designed for adults seeking neurodivergent-affirming, trauma-aware support that does not rely on pressure, shame, or one-size-fits-all approaches. You can find information about ARFID therapy on her website at drmariannemiller.com. Also check out her blog on ARFID topics. If this episode resonated, consider sharing it with someone who has struggled to find language or care for long-standing eating challenges. ARFID in adults deserves recognition, respect, and treatment that fits.
For years, we were told it was anxiety, stress, hormones, or burnout. But it wasn't. In this episode, we're talking about what happens when ADHD in women goes unnoticed, how masking, people pleasing, high achievement, and emotional overwhelm get misread… and why so many women don't get diagnosed until adulthood.If you've ever felt “too much” or like you were secretly failing at things that seemed easy for everyone else… this one's for you.Follow us on IG: @tellmesispodcast https://bit.ly/3sPtSTsFollow us on TikTok: @tellmesispodcast https://bit.ly/3WniYlBListen on Spotify: https://spoti.fi/3SZoSa7Listen on Apple Podcast: https://apple.co/3e70iFCFollow + Support AlexIG: http://bit.ly/1TUKMdBTikTok: https://bit.ly/3sp0hA5YouTube: http://bit.ly/1UWrxxqFollow + Support KylaIG: http://bit.ly/1L24YEdtellmesispodcast@gmail.com
What if everything you thought about early extension was wrong?In this episode of the Athletic Motion Golf podcast, Mike Granato and Shaun Webb dive deep into one of the most misunderstood and misdiagnosed swing faults in golf: early extension.Most golfers (and sadly, a lot of coaches too) are watching the wrong hip, misreading camera angles, and making massive swing changes to fix a problem they don't fully understand. The result? Wrecked pivots, locked hips, and stalled progress.This is the real truth about early extension — and how it's often a symptom, not the root cause.Inside, we'll unpack:The #1 camera mistake that leads to misdiagnosisWhy your lead knee and hip rotation matter more than trail side movementHow most swing aids and drills make the problem worseWhat you should actually focus on to fix your swingWhy locking your pelvis down is destroying your power and consistency
What happens when chronic illness, autoimmune disease, and medical misdiagnosis collide with a healthcare system that refuses to listen? In this episode, I sit down with Otto Rothmund, a 23-year-old entrepreneur who spent nine years being misdiagnosed while battling autoimmune encephalitis, Lyme-related complications, and debilitating panic and isolation, and we explore what it feels like to be told your suffering is psychosomatic when your life is falling apart. Otto shares how chronic pain, medical gaslighting, insurance barriers, and missed diagnoses shaped his childhood, education, relationships, and identity, as well as the turning points that finally helped him reclaim energy, hope, and direction through diet, mindset, and perseverance. His story offers insight into invisible illness, patient advocacy, and the emotional toll of long-term illness while reminding us why validation, compassion, and honest inquiry matter so deeply in healthcare. Otto's courage, clarity, and willingness to speak openly about loneliness, resilience, and rebuilding make this conversation both sobering and deeply hopeful.

In today's powerful episode, we sit down with Rebecca Hushman, a certified carnivore coach who went from 69 pounds on her deathbed to thriving in ways doctors never believed possible. Misdiagnosed, gaslit, and battling chronic illness—including C‑diff, Lyme, autoimmune conditions, and severe digestive issues—Rebecca's story is one of radical resilience and nutritional transformation.After years of failed treatments, endless antibiotics, and worsening symptoms, Rebecca discovered the healing potential of a strict ketogenic diet and eventually the carnivore diet. Removing oxalates, eliminating plant foods, and focusing on nutrient‑dense animal foods helped her reverse symptoms, gain weight for the first time in years, and rebuild her health from the ground up.In this conversation, Rebecca shares:Her journey from chronic illness to full recoveryWhy traditional medicine failed to identify the root causesHow keto and carnivore changed everythingThe role of histamine, oxalates, and gut healthWhat she learned about pregnancy on a carnivore dietThe mindset, structure, and daily habits that support long‑term healing#CarnivoreDiet #KetoDiet #CarnivoreHealing #ChronicIllnessRecovery #GutHealth #AutoimmuneHealing #CDiffRecovery #HealthTransformation #KetoToCarnivore #RebeccaHushman #DrKiltzPodcast #MetabolicHealth #Oxalates #HistamineIntolerance #FunctionalMedicine #HealingJourney #CarnivoreCommunity #AncestralHealth #NutrientDenseEating #CarnivoreSuccess00:00 Introduction 01:12 Rebecca's story begins 03:05 Early diagnoses & medications 05:10 Chronic pain and failed treatments 06:40 Functional medicine discoveries 08:55 Hitting 69 lbs — the lowest point 11:20 Turning to the carnivore diet 13:45 Managing histamine issues 15:10 What made her so sick? 17:30 Childhood diet & hidden sugars 19:00 Do plants feed harmful microbes? 20:40 Functional vs. conventional medicine 22:15 Discovering keto and carnivore
Endometriosis and adenomyosis are two of the most misunderstood women's health conditions—and most women are never given real answers. In this episode of The Health Revival Show, we break down the key differences between endometriosis and adenomyosis, why imaging often misses them, and why symptoms like painful periods, pain with sex, bowel pain, heavy bleeding, clots, and infertility are often dismissed or misdiagnosed. We dive into the real root causes: chronic inflammation, immune dysfunction, estrogen metabolism issues, poor bile flow, gut dysbiosis, genetic predispositions, and environmental hormone disruptors. You'll learn why estrogen levels alone don't tell the full story, how detox pathways matter more than dominance, and what actually helps reduce symptom severity. If you've been told “everything looks normal” but your body says otherwise—this episode is for you. *** CONNECT:
Hey Diabuddy thank you for listening to show, send me some positive vibes with your favorite part of this episode.In today's episode, I sit down with Ashley Sparks, who was diagnosed with T1D at just 14 years old—during the first days of her freshman year of high school. What should have been a straightforward diagnosis quickly turned into a traumatic experience when doctors dismissed her symptoms and wrongly accused her of being pregnant instead of running basic diagnostic tests.Ashley shares her powerful journey from misdiagnosis and dismissal to becoming a confident self-advocate in her diabetes care. She opens up about navigating high school as the only student with T1D, being denied basic accommodations, and learning—often the hard way—how to speak up for herself in medical settings.
I'm so glad you're here for this conversation, because today we're diving into a topic that is personally very close to home for me and I'm guessing many of you: the intersection of ADHD, womanhood, and self-love. My guest today, Kristen Baird-Goldman, is a licensed mental health therapist who specializes in working with neurodivergent women, especially those over 40. She brings such clarity and compassion to this whole messy thing of hormones, ADHD, and mental health. We talk about why so many women go undiagnosed until midlife, how perimenopause can amplify ADHD symptoms in ways that feel terrifying, what's actually happening in the brain and body during this time, and how we can advocate for ourselves in a medical system that still has a long way to go.I'm so relieved to see this topic finally getting more attention in the news, in research, and all over social media. The conversations are growing and the awareness is catching up! I'm so glad you're here today with me to be a part of it all - especially the men out there listening. Truly, I mean it. Your willingness to understand these experiences makes a real difference in the lives of your partners, friends, colleagues, and family members. Thanks for tuning in!

In this episode, Dr. Linda Bluestein is joined by Professor Tara Renton, a globally recognized expert in orofacial pain, to explore the nuanced world of facial pain, temporomandibular joint (TMJ) dysfunction, and migraine disorders. Together, they unpack why so many patients suffer from persistent facial, jaw, or head pain despite “normal” scans and what magnetic resonance neurography (MRN) can reveal that traditional imaging might miss. They also dig into local anesthetic reactions, the limitations of pain scales, and how to distinguish between healthy vs. unhealthy pain. . Takeaways Professor Renton explains how magnetic resonance neurography (MRN) can detect nerve irritation that typical MRIs may miss, especially in TMJ and facial pain cases. You'll hear how migraine-related nerve dysfunction can present as jaw pain, facial burning, or unexplained dental sensitivity without classic migraine symptoms. They explore how patients with conditions like mast cell activation may react to preservatives or delivery mechanisms in numbing agents, even if allergy tests are negative.

From Camp Lejeune to Clinical Breakthrough: Mark Burnett's Incredible Fight Against Parkinson's & Alzheimer'sBorn at Camp Lejeune in 1958, Mark Burnett's life was shaped by contaminated water that led to decades of neurological challenges—Parkinson's and Alzheimer's. Misdiagnosed and dismissed for years, Mark refused to accept an “impossible” prognosis. Instead, he approached his condition like a broken system—and debugged it.His journey uncovered a 2,000-year-old plant, a Japanese study, and a revolutionary ultra-chill milling process that preserved its natural compounds. The result? A powerful, all-natural supplement that changed his life.Mark even completed the Michael J. Fox marathon and beat Alzheimer's odds with measurable progress. Today, he shares his story of resilience, innovation, and hope for those facing neurological disease.

What if you've been misdiagnosed or mismedicated for your symptoms, and it took until reaching midlife to figure it out? That's exactly what happened with today's podcast guest, ADHD expert Shanna Pearson, so she's here to shed light on the real reasons so many women are misdiagnosed for so much of their lives. We dive into how ADHD symptoms can mimic other mental health conditions like anxiety and depression, making it even harder for women to get the right diagnosis and support. Together, we explore why we as women don't always “fit the mold” of ADHD and how cultural expectations have kept our symptoms invisible for too long. Plus, you'll get top tips for managing symptoms of overwhelm and hyperactivity at any stage of life. Tune in to make the most of your midlife, and to ensure you're getting the care and support you need to thrive! Shanna Pearson Shanna Pearson is Founder and Director of Expert ADHD Coaching, the world's largest one-on-one ADHD coaching company, which has administered successful coaching sessions for tens of thousands of clients. Shanna struggled with her own ADHD without realizing it for most of her life, so she now helps others navigate their ADHD diagnoses with ease and confidence. Her new book, Invisible ADHD, offers over 100 proven tools uniquely tailored for the ADHD brain that have transformed thousands of lives over 20+ years. IN THIS EPISODE Helping women prioritize taking care of their mental health Addressing the lack of research on women with ADHD Gaining agency over your symptoms and tips on advocating to your doctor to get what you deserve Telltale signs you may have ADHD and have been misdiagnosed Setting boundaries and staying in alignment with your values Why so many women realize they have ADHD in midlife Recommendations for navigating a new ADHD diagnosis Top tools that help make your life easier when dealing with overwhelm, hyperactivity, or other common symptoms of ADHD QUOTES “A lot of women with ADHD and other challenges, even if it's just major hormonal shifts, are being diagnosed or misdiagnosed with depression and anxiety, and then they're being mismedicated.” “They're doing different things for women–a lot of that is internal. So they could be sitting there staring right at you and thinking about something completely different than what you're talking about. It's more about an internal hyperactivity versus an external hyperactivity.” “Now we're going through a phase of our life where there's even less dopamine in an already dopamine-deficient brain. So whatever you've been able to manage is now basically feeling like it's falling apart. And it happens quickly.” RESOURCES MENTIONED PRE-ORDER Invisible ADHD HERE TO ACCESS EXCLUSIVE BONUSES & Enter to win FREE COACHING!
