Podcasts about misdiagnosis

In this episode of The Inspire Health by Jen Podcast we dive into the pervasive myth of late onset ADHD particularly in women experiencing hormonal changes. If you've ever wondered whether you “suddenly” developed ADHD in your 30s, 40s, or 50s, this episode is your permission slip to exhale.  We unpack how estrogen and progesterone shifts, unresolved trauma, and modern-day stressors can mimic classic ADHD symptoms—brain fog, distractibility, irritability, emotional overwhelm—and why so many women get mislabeled instead of truly supported. You'll learn why your brain is not broken, why your body is not a “dumpster fire,” and why there is nothing wrong with needing help. There are holistic, natural, and deeply effective ways to rebalance your system so you can feel like yourself again. Themes:  “Late-onset ADHD” is rarely ADHD. Hormonal decline—especially falling estrogen—can look identical to attention-deficit symptoms. Your hormones are talking. Estrogen influences cognition, focus, mood, and memory more than most women are ever told. ADHD can be a gift. Many women with ADHD have brilliant, multi-channel minds that excel when supported properly. Trauma changes attention. Past emotional wounds can amplify ADHD-like symptoms and dysregulate focus. Lifestyle shifts matter. Nutrition, sleep, movement, and stress regulation are foundational—not optional. Test, don't guess. Comprehensive hormone testing is key to accurate diagnosis and treatment. Natural support works. Supplements and holistic strategies can reduce symptoms without relying solely on stimulants like Adderall. Know your wiring. Understanding how your unique brain works is liberating and empowering. You deserve support. Healing ADHD-like symptoms requires guidance—this is not a DIY project. Your mental health and hormonal health are inseparable. When one shifts, the other follows.   Connect with Jen:

Send us a textIn this deeply moving and provocative episode of The Harvest Sarasota Podcast, guest speaker Stan Mitchell challenges centuries of inherited theology by reframing the story of Eve not as the origin of sin but as the beginning of shame. With tenderness, wit, and piercing insight, Stan invites listeners to see Genesis 3 through new eyes: what if humanity's greatest fall wasn't disobedience but disconnection from our own belovedness?Through a powerful retelling of Eve's story and a hauntingly beautiful story about his daughter, Stan exposes how shame, not sin, remains the true barrier between us and the divine. This conversation will unsettle, heal, and ultimately reawaken your sense of inherent worth.Listen in and rediscover a gospel that heals rather than condemns, a gospel where we were never truly separated from Love.#HarvestSarasota #StanMitchell #Podcast #FaithDeconstructed #Genesis3 #HealingFromShame #SpiritualGrowth #Belovedness #GraceNotGuilt #TheGospelOfLove Harvest is a fully affirming, inclusive (including the LGBTQ+ community) progressive Christian church located in Sarasota, Florida.Follow us on Social Media:Instagram - Instagram.com/harvestsarasotaFacebook - Facebook.com/harvestsarasotaTikTok CLICK HEREDONATE to support our podcast HERERecorded live at Harvest Church in Sarasota by Michael Thomas Regina and Stephen Lehman of Boardtown Creative

In this powerful episode of the Functionally Enlightened Podcast, Dr. Sharon Surita welcomes Frédéric Roscop, an award-winning osteopathic practitioner and scientist from the UK, who shares his deeply personal journey of living with undiagnosed Lyme disease for over 20 years—and how he ultimately healed himself when conventional medicine failed.

In this powerful episode of the Tick Boot Camp Podcast, international DJ and artist duo Z3LLA — Julia “Juj” Seeley and Kiana Tebyani — share how chronic illness, creativity, and friendship became the foundation of their success. After years of unexplained symptoms, Juj was diagnosed with Lyme disease, Bartonella, Babesia, mold toxicity, POTS, SIBO, celiac disease, and later catamenial epilepsy. Despite life-altering health challenges, she and her best friend Kiana have built Z3LLA into one of the most exciting names in house music — with their single “Why Should I?” reaching #1 on the US Dance Radio Charts and performances alongside Disco Lines, Galantis, and Bijou. Together, Juj and Kiana discuss performing through flare-ups, collapsing backstage, navigating the medical system, and the emotional toll of chasing dreams while managing invisible illness. From ER visits and red-light therapy to steroid crashes and spiritual breakthroughs, this episode is a masterclass in resilience, vulnerability, and using art as advocacy.

Hey everyone! We're taking our own advice this week and looking after our energy levels — both of us are juggling some extra work hours and doing our best to avoid burnout. So instead of a brand-new episode today, we're re-running one of our most popular and meaningful conversations. Thank you so much for your understanding as we take a breather — we'll be back with our Hot Topic episode on Friday as usual. And next week, we'll be celebrating a huge milestone — 100,000 downloads!

Complex PTSD doesn't show up like a broken arm - nobody opens doors for you when your nervous system is on fire. Meghan Judge shares how losing her sister at age two, then her father at twelve, then her best friend in her twenties created a lifetime of hypervigilance that looked like "something wrong with her" instead of what it actually was: a body that learned too early that people disappear without warning. The conversation gets raw about female friendships turning vicious (women can smile while destroying you), parenting teenagers when your trauma tells you everyone you love will die, and why meditation advice feels like trying to light a wet match when your brain writes disaster scripts at 2 AM. There's real talk about the years of misdiagnosis - depression, ADHD, bipolar - before finally understanding this is your nervous system and brain trying to protect you. The relief of finding the right therapist after years of bad fits, permission to need continuous support instead of white-knuckling independence, and why you can't unlearn trauma but you can retrain your system to feel safe again.

In this powerful episode, we sit down with Sarah Reilly, who spent years battling mysterious symptoms before finally discovering the truth — undiagnosed Lyme disease. She then also uncovered additional autoimmune disease symptoms. Sarah opens up about the emotional and physical toll of being dismissed by doctors, the turning points in her healing journey, and the holistic steps that helped her reclaim her health. If you've been struggling and wondering why you're not healing Lyme disease, or any other autoimmune disease, this conversation offers both validation and hope. Tune in to learn practical strategies, red flags to watch for, and what real healing from Lyme disease looks like from someone who's been there. I'm Sarah Reilly—a Functional Medicine Nutritionist whose own Lyme and autoimmune comeback ignited a 16-year clinical career. After conventional care failed me, I dug into root-cause protocols, blending nutrition, lifestyle reset and burnout recovery into a system that's reversed inflammation for thousands. Today I'm known as the 'secret weapon' for leaders and athletes, because I don't just mask symptoms—I rebuild resilience in body, mind and performance.

In this episode of Sex Advice for Seniors, I had the pleasure of speaking with Dr Shirin Lakhani, a GP, trained aesthetic technician, and founder of Elite Aesthetics, whom I first encountered during a preview for an upcoming Menopause Event called Pause and met in person this past weekend!Our conversation explored the often-overlooked topic of sexual health and intimacy as we age, a subject on which we have a mutual interest! Dr Lakhani's work, including her Check Your Vulva campaign, encourages women to understand and embrace their anatomy, helping them recognise what's normal and advocate for their health. (During the preview event the audience, composed mainly of women, were handed hand mirrors with Dr. Lakhani demonstrating the correct way to ‘check our vulva' - fully clothed, I might add!). We also discussed the lack of adequate menopause training for healthcare professionals, which often leads to women being dismissed or misdiagnosed when seeking help for conditions like genitourinary syndrome of menopause (GSM).One of the highlights of our conversation was learning about the O-Shot and P-Shot treatments, which use platelet-rich plasma (PRP) to regenerate tissues and improve sexual function for both men and women. Dr Lakhani explained how these therapies enhance sensitivity, lubrication, and blood flow, making them effective solutions for issues such as painful sex, erectile dysfunction, and even stress incontinence. For women with hormone-sensitive conditions, such as breast cancer survivors, the O-Shot provides a non-hormonal alternative to treatments like estrogen. These cutting-edge therapies are a game-changer, offering hope and healing to so many.We also spoke about the importance of pelvic floor health, particularly for recovery after prostate surgery or childbirth. Dr Lakhani introduced me to advanced devices she uses in her practise that deliver thousands of pelvic floor contractions in just minutes, allowing patients to strengthen their pelvic muscles in ways they couldn't achieve on their own. For men recovering from prostate cancer surgery, this kind of therapy can significantly reduce incontinence and improve erectile function - a real game changer.Finally, we addressed the challenges of diagnosing and treating lichen sclerosus, a condition that can cause severe discomfort and is often mistaken for other issues like thrush. Dr Lakhani shared how PRP and radio frequency microneedling can restore tissue health and improve the quality of life for those affected. This episode reinforced for me the importance of normalising conversations about sexual health at any age. We need better education, improved communication with healthcare providers, and greater access to treatments that can restore intimacy and joy in our lives.

Dr. Hoffman continues his conversation with Nicole Bell, the CEO of Galaxy Diagnostics and author of “What Lurks in the Woods.” 

This episode of the Intelligent Medicine podcast is a deep dive into the complexities of Lyme disease and other tick-borne illnesses. Nicole Bell, the CEO of Galaxy Diagnostics and author of “What Lurks in the Woods,” details the challenges of diagnosing tick-borne diseases, the limitations of current diagnostic tests, and the controversy around treatment methodologies. Nicole shares her personal journey that led her to this field after her husband was misdiagnosed with early-onset Alzheimer's, which was later revealed to be caused by advanced Lyme disease. They also discuss new diagnostic techniques, the importance of personalized treatment plans, and ongoing advocacy efforts to improve awareness and research funding for Lyme disease.

In this episode of The Headache Doctor Podcast, Dr. Taves explores the confusing and often frightening world of atypical migraines. Unlike classic migraines—characterized by one-sided throbbing head pain and light or sound sensitivity—atypical migraines show up in unexpected ways, including:Visual disturbances and auraNumbness, tingling, or weaknessStroke-like symptoms such as facial droopingBrain fog, dizziness, or fatigueDr. Taves explains how the healthcare system typically treats atypical migraines as a “diagnosis of exclusion,” offering only medications to manage symptoms rather than addressing root causes. He emphasizes that many of these unusual migraine presentations stem from problems in the upper neck, which can confuse the brain's pain-processing pathways and create a wide variety of neurological symptoms.Listeners will learn why traditional imaging often misses the true problem, how the brain can misinterpret pain signals, and why focusing on neck movement and function can be key to finding lasting relief. Dr. Taves encourages patients not to settle for symptom management but to seek out a framework that addresses the underlying cause of their migraines.Novera: Headache Center

Welcome back to ADHD-ish! In this episode, host Diann Wingert sits down with Dr. Gilly Kahn, author of the recently published Allow Me to Interrupt: A Psychologist Reveals the Emotional Truth Behind Women's ADHD. Together, Gilly and Diann tackle often overlooked elements of ADHD, like emotional dysregulation and rejection sensitivity, shining a light on the daily realities that many women face but rarely see reflected in mainstream ADHD narratives.Drawing on both personal experiences and clinical insights, Gilly and Diann unpack hot-button topics such as the gaps in diagnostic criteria, why women are often diagnosed later in life, and the profound impact of being emotionally sensitive in a world that expects conformity.Whether you've been told you're “extra,” struggled with impulsivity, or have battled feelings of not belonging, this conversation will offer validation, strategies, and a healthy dose of humor. Grab your headphones—it's time to celebrate the quirks, strengths, and unique challenges of being a woman with ADHD. What you'll hear in this episode:Emotional Dysregulation is Fundamental (and Overlooked): While most people associate ADHD with distractibility and impulsivity, Diann and Dr. Kahn remind us that emotional sensitivity and reactivity are just as central—especially for women. Emotional outbursts, rejection sensitivity, and the complexities of self-regulation often remain unaddressed but profoundly impact daily life and professional relationships.Misdiagnosis & Misunderstanding Persist: Many women spend years feeling misunderstood, misdiagnosed with anxiety, depression, or even personality disorders, before discovering ADHD's unique presentation in females. Trauma from chronic misunderstanding—whether “big T” or “little t”—leaves lasting scars on self-esteem and career confidence.Diversity of Thought = Business Advantage: The strengths that come with ADHD—creativity, expansive curiosity, resilience in the face of rejection—aren't just “superpowers” for individuals. As Dr. Kahn eloquently puts it, teams excel when they have true diversity of thought. Those who think differently spark innovation and challenge the status quo.Mic Drop Moment:“You can't have strengths without also having weaknesses, especially when the strengths are extreme.” – Gilly Kahn, PhDGuest BioGilly Kahn, PhD, is a clinical psychologist, ADHD advocate, researcher, and author in private practice in Atlanta, GA, USA.

Send us a textWhat if the deepest wound in the human soul isn't sin—but shame?In this stirring message, we dive into one of the most radical shifts in Christian thought in two thousand years: moving from a doctrine of inherent separation from God to a vision of inherent union with God.With raw honesty, the sermon wrestles with the Garden story, the cross, and the very heart of the gospel. What if salvation is not about clawing our way back to a God who left us, but awakening to the truth that God never left?

He was diagnosed with anxiety, depression, and ADHD in rehab at Cirque Lodge in 2023. It was not until this third trip to rehab in 2024 at Burning Tree Renewal Lodge after his first ever arrest that he was able to let go of past traumas that have haunted him some since childhood. Those traumas include sexual abuse by a male babysitter at the age of 10/11, an unhealthy lifelong relationship with his father and being codependent up the ass in all his relationships in his life. He learned about and how to “manage” his codependency, he began and continues therapy to deal with the traumas and current life challenges, and he learned to live in the present. Heidi is the co-founder of Sober.Buzz and has experienced trauma since the beginning, starting with the Primal Wound as she was adopted shortly after birth. She was molested for many years at a young age until her familymoved from California to Utah. In her early years she found joy in swimming and could have gone far but after being sexually assaulted a week before her 16th birthday she lost the joy she once found in her favorite sport, and it was then she began her journey with drugs. She has been battling misdiagnoses and addiction ever since and a year ago Heidi, with help from Josh and a sober manager, decided to attend AcquaRecovery in Utah.

In this powerful episode of LaidOPEN Podcast, I sit down with medical researcher, writer, and host of Modern Hysteria, Micah Larsen, to dive deep into her deeply personal and courageous journey through PMDD, menopause, and preeclampsia. With warmth and unflinching honesty, Micah illuminates the painful gaps in our healthcare system and the persistence of medical misogyny—and, more importantly, how we can begin to dismantle those barriers. We explore: The courage it takes to speak openly about taboo topics like incontinence, childbirth, postpartum challenges, and menopause. How narrative and advocacy are essential tools for transforming women's healthcare. Micah's Montana farm: a place of solace, healing, and self-acceptance that has helped her reclaim her body and spirit amid the storms. This episode is equal parts urgent call to action and celebration of resilience—a reminder that better women's healthcare starts with brave conversations and compassionate communities. Note: This episode includes discussions of very heavy themes, including suicide. If you're feeling fragile, you might choose to listen in gentle doses, on a different day, or skip it altogether. But know this: this is an inspiring conversation—and I hope it helps ignite a true women's medical rights movement.

In this powerful and deeply human episode, Lisa is joined by two internationally recognized leaders in the field of complex trauma and dissociation—Ana Gómez and Jill Hosey—for a heartfelt conversation about their monumental new release: The Handbook of Complex Trauma and Dissociation in Children. More than just a book discussion, this episode offers a reverence-based reframe of dissociation—not as pathology, but as a brilliant, adaptive survival strategy used by children navigating overwhelming experiences. Ana and Jill share their personal insights from editing this groundbreaking 900+ page volume, which weaves together theory, research, clinical case work, and embodied practices from over 60 contributors. Together, they explore the profound responsibility therapists carry—not only to understand dissociation in their clients but to honor how it arises in their own inner worlds. You'll hear candid reflections on what it means to be a regulated presence in the therapy room, how fear of dissociation may show up in clinicians, and how co-regulation becomes the foundation for relational healing. Whether you're just beginning to explore the topic of dissociation or are a seasoned trauma therapist, this episode invites you to shift from fear to curiosity—from fragmentation to integration.

The brilliant Tracy Otsuka is back on the show for another rich conversation about why ADHD so often gets misdiagnosed (or completely missed) in women, how trauma can mimic or amplify ADHD symptoms, and what you can actually do to function and advocate for yourself if you're dealing with either (or both) during divorce. We also dig into the very real challenges of trying to function while your brain is in a constant state of overwhelm: whether that's from trauma, ADHD, or the mental chaos that comes when the lines between them blur. Tracy breaks down the importance of understanding how your brain is wired, why traditional systems so often fail neurodivergent women, and how to build supports that actually work for you. Whether you're navigating ADHD or the aftermath of trauma, reclaiming your own narrative isn't just important, it's necessary, especially if someone else is trying to write it for you.

ABOUT THIS EPISODE (+ scroll for resources)

In this powerful, long-form interview, Kristina Bauer returns to the Tick Boot Camp Podcast to share her in-depth story of surviving decades of misdiagnosed Lyme disease — from childhood illness and misdiagnoses to motherhood, advocacy, and remission. Diagnosed at age 40 after 32 years of medical dismissal, Kristina discusses her experience with congenital Lyme disease in her four children, postpartum Lyme flares, and her commitment to raising awareness through the Texas Lyme Alliance, Center for Lyme Action, and International Lyme and Associated Diseases Society (ILADS) Ambassadorship. Her testimony covers essential ground: pediatric Lyme, maternal Lyme, psychiatric symptoms like Lyme rage, postpartum depression misdiagnosis, sexual transmission, and the need for insurance and diagnostic reform. This episode is a masterclass in Lyme disease education and empowerment, especially for women, mothers, and families navigating complex Lyme journeys. Key Topics Discussed Early Lyme Exposure: Tick bites at age 8 in Illinois and decades of misdiagnosis (juvenile arthritis, Crohn's, ulcers) Chronic Symptoms: Sinus infections, Epstein-Barr Virus (EBV), fibromyalgia, neurological and psychiatric symptoms Postpartum Lyme Flares: Crushing fatigue, misdiagnosed postpartum depression, and suicidal ideation risk Congenital Lyme Disease: How all four of her children were born with Lyme and are now in remission Mental Health Awareness: Lyme rage, mood swings, panic attacks, and the importance of therapy Tick-Borne Disease Advocacy: Legislative work in Texas, ILADS, educating OB-GYNs, and pushing for proper diagnostic protocols Medical System Failures: Inadequate Lyme testing, gaslighting, high insurance costs for chronic illness Lyme & Pregnancy Research Study: An open call for pregnant individuals diagnosed with Lyme disease during their current pregnancy, OR with post-treatment Lyme disease syndrome (PTLDS) in the past 5 years.

One tick bite can carry 19 pathogens with 100 strains.”

In this episode of the HVAC Know It All Podcast, host Gary McCreadie with Tyler Nelson from Sauermann Group talk about the best ways to find refrigerant leaks. Tyler explains why old methods like using soap bubbles aren't enough anymore, and how electronic and ultrasonic leak detectors can save time and avoid costly mistakes. They also talk about the right way to use nitrogen for leak checks and how small things like Schrader caps can make a big difference. Tyler shares why UV dye still works well when used right, and how knowing your tools helps you do better work and keep customers happy. Tyler Nelson explains why using modern leak detectors is better than old methods like soap and bubbles. He shares how electronic and ultrasonic tools can find leaks faster and more clearly, saving time and money. Tyler also talks about using nitrogen the right way, slowly and in steps to avoid waste. He explains why Schrader caps matter and how tiny leaks can be missed without the right tools. Tyler also shares how UV dye helps spot hidden coil leaks and how real examples help customers see and trust the problem, leading to better repair decisions. Here, Tyler explains why using the right leak detection tools is key, even if you think the system looks okay. Just like a doctor listens closely, techs should trust tools like electronic and ultrasonic leak detectors to find what eyes can't see. He talks about testing them first to make sure they work right. He also shares how slow leaks and hidden damage like from corrosion can be missed without these tools, and how UV dye can show clear proof that helps techs and customers make smart choices. Expect to Learn: Why old leak test methods can miss small problems. How electronic tools find leaks faster and more clearly. Why adding nitrogen in steps saves time and money.
