Podcasts about Uveitis

Have a question you'd like April to answer on the show? Send us a text!"What would you do if your horse was limping, colicking, or spooking—and no one could tell you why?”That question lit a fire in April Love that would grow into a global mission: helping horse owners uncover the root causes of mystery lameness, behavioral issues, and chronic pain that traditional methods often miss.Recently, April joined Kimberley on The Backyard Horse Enthusiast podcast to share her journey, from early passion and endurance riding to developing the revolutionary bodywork system that is now Holistic Horseworks.What makes April's approach unique is that she teaches horse owners how to become their horse's best healer. Through hands-on clinics, online home study courses, and a growing archive of over 200 YouTube videos and bite-sized podcasts, April shares techniques that work—because they're based on real results over decades of experience.From resolving Uveitis without surgery, to transforming behavioral “problem horses” into calm companions, April's stories are more than anecdotes—they're evidence of what's possible when we support the body's ability to heal itself.And the best part? You don't need to be a vet, trainer, or therapist. You just need the right tools, a little guidance—and a deep love for your horse.Thanks to the host Kimberly from The Backyard Horse Enthusiast!Website: https://www.thebackyardhorseenthusiast.com/Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@UCPzmo1x8mWZWCOmBKIZ9hhw Resources and Products Mentioned in This Episode:Dynamite Release Spray: https://bit.ly/release-sprayHoof, Hand, and Ting Miracle Spray: https://tinyurl.com/miracle-sprayColloidal Silver: https://tinyurl.com/dynamite-solacedoTerra Essential Oils: https://tinyurl.com/hhw-doterraHolistic Horseworks Books: https://amzn.to/4jjyTf7Distance Readings: https://holistichorseworks.com/e4l/Online Home Study Program: https://holistichorseworks.com/best-online-horse-bodywork-course/Horse Yoga: https://tinyurl.com/horse-yoga

In this episode I break down the latest research on Ozempic and its potential link to NAION (non-arteritic ischemic optic neuropathy), a rare condition that can lead to sudden vision loss. I also reflects on UnitedHealthcare's continued public relations missteps, including its latest legal threats against physicians and anybody on social media, speaking out about the company. Takeaways: The Ozempic and Blindness Connection: Dr. Flannery explains a recent observational study that suggests Ozempic may increase the risk of NAION, a condition that affects the optic nerve. However, the data isn't conclusive yet, and more research is needed before drawing firm conclusions. Uveitis and the Syphilis Conversation: If you have eye inflammation (uveitis), your doctor may need to test for syphilis—leading to some of the most awkward conversations in ophthalmology. Dr. Flannery explains why this is necessary and how it helps with proper diagnosis. UnitedHealthcare's PR Nightmare: The insurance giant recently hired a law firm to threaten doctors on social media, proving once again that they're more focused on silencing criticism than improving patient care. Does Everyone Need Cataract Surgery at 60? Not necessarily! While cataracts affect nearly everyone with age, surgery should only be performed when they significantly impact vision. Dr. Flannery explains how doctors decide when it's time for surgery. Do We Really Need a Spleen? Dr. Flannery debates whether two livers would be better than one liver and a spleen, adding yet another hilarious (but oddly insightful) take on human anatomy. — To Get Tickets to Wife & Death: You can visit Glaucomflecken.com/live We want to hear YOUR stories (and medical puns)!

Ben Zimmer, CEO of Priovant Therapeutics, focuses on developing therapies for rare autoimmune diseases specifically dermatomyositis, which affects the skin, muscles, and organs, and non-infectious uveitis, a severe ocular inflammatory condition. While these conditions are symptomatically different, mechanistically, they have features in common related to the underlying pathology of the diseases. The drug in development is an oral once-daily therapy that addresses the inflammatory conditions and cytokines driving the pathology. Ben explains, "During COVID, there was a lot of talk about the cytokine storm and these are molecules involved in immune cell signaling. So, they're basically ways that different types of immune cells signal to each other to do different things. There's a large variety of different cytokines and some autoimmune diseases. There are only maybe one or two cytokines or a small number that are driving the pathology of the disease."   "Both dermatomyositis and non-infectious uveitis are highly inflammatory conditions with a lot of different pathogenic cytokines, a lot of different inflammatory axes involved. And so, one of the neat things about our drug, brepocitinib, is that it works on a set category of enzymes called JAKs, and then there are four different types of JAKs, JAK1, JAK2, JAK3, and you might guess JAK4, but it's actually called TYK2. And our drug inhibits TYK2 and JAK1. And by doing that, it suppresses the signaling of a large number of different cytokines." "Uveitis and dermatomyositis have a number of overlapping pathogenic cytokines involved, as well as some different cytokines, but they are both suppressed through the inhibition of TYK2 and JAK1, which our drug does. So, our thesis is to find these highly inflammatory indications, highly inflammatory diseases with high morbidity, which can be expressed in many different organ systems." #PriovantTherapeutics #RareDisease #OrphanIndication #Uveitis #NIU #Dermatomyositis #JAK1 #TYK2 priovanttx.com  Download the transcript here

Today, I have a special guest called Peggy joining me to share her story of overcoming the health challenges she faced with her horse Cami.Peggy lives in Alabama. She has two horses, one of which is a 36-year-old Arabian Quarter Horse cross. The other is Cami, a 13-year-old Oldenburg Quarter Horse mare. I began working with Peggy in 2021 when Cami had several challenging health conditions.Initial Contact and Reason for AppointmentAfter hearing me on a podcast, Peggy initially contacted me to help her 36-year-old horse, Sterling, who was struggling with FICO water syndrome. During our discussions, she realized that her other horse, Cami, who was dealing with chronic uveitis, could also benefit from my understanding.Background on CamiPeggy bought Cami in 2020 during the pandemic. She found her online and learned that Cami had only been away from her breeder for about eight months. Initially, she had a stress-free life on 40 acres with a herd, but her next home was stressful. She was kept in a stall 24/7 with little outdoor time and no herd contact, which was a drastic change for her.Initial Health ConcernsWhen Peggy brought Cami home, she knew she had eye issues, and the vet confirmed a minor irritation. Peggy initially managed it with medication, even considering the possibility of removing the eye if necessary. However, as Cami settled in, various other health issues emerged, including weight gain, crusty neck, and anxiety.Treatment and MedicationsPeggy tried multiple medications to manage Cami's eye issues, including oral anti-inflammatories and ointments. Taking her to an ophthalmologist was challenging due to her anxiety around trailering, so Peggy had to manage treatments at home with my help and with that of her vet. It required significant teamwork and research.Initial Attitude and GoalsPeggy was determined to save Cami's eye, feeling that surgery was not a viable option due to her reactive state and the stress it would cause her. She began using positive reinforcement and clicker training to help her administer the medication, which allowed us to manage the symptoms but not solve the underlying problem.Holistic Approach and RealizationsReducing stress and holistically addressing equine health is essential for managing chronic conditions like uveitis. Peggy explains that Cami's health conditions worsened in a less stressful environment as her body began to express the underlying imbalances.Health Deterioration and ProgressPeggy recalls how Cami developed a cataract and went blind in one eye after a severe reaction to annual vaccinations. That led to a visit from an ophthalmologist and required intense medication to save the eye. That period was the beginning of our understanding of how her hypersensitivity led to complex health issues.Managing Multiple Health IssuesCami's immune system was hypersensitive. She reacted to various triggers like vaccinations, ant bites- and even organic fly sprays. Although the increased sensitivity was a sign of her body healing, it also added a layer of complexity to her care.Initial Treatment StrategyMy first treatment program for Cami focused on improving her digestion, regulating her insulin and blood sugar, and reducing oxidative stress rather than directly addressing the eye issue. Peggy began to notice improvements in her overall health, including weight loss, a shinier coat, and healthier hooves.Importance of Detailed ObservationRegular photos helped Peggy monitor changes and effectiveness of treatments and helped her make informed decisions regarding Cami's care. Daily observation and documentation were also required to track her progress.Milestones...

What you need to know about uveitis for your clinical practice and rheumatology board exams.This includes what uveitis actually is, how to think about/classify uveitis in your mind (anatomically; infectious vs non-infectious; systemic vs eye-limited), causes of uveitis, the clinical presentation, workup, management and some extra stuff. As always, "Quiz Time's” are scattered through the episode to check your understanding.Survey link: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSd6QbrO0kJDzRE8t4fZPIFw1CA9nTw6Qk3Z1FVmCRpt8EdLSg/viewform?usp=sf_link

This week, we are looking at uveitis, sometimes known as moon blindness in horses. Uveitis is a big concern for horse owners because it can lead to blindness and, in severe cases, even result in the horse losing an eye. Even in traditional medicine, the exact cause of this complex and chronic condition remains elusive. So, today, I approach uveitis from a holistic perspective, exploring its various facets and potential treatments.Understanding UveitisUveitis, indicated by the suffix itis, denotes inflammation, specifically chronic inflammation of the uvea, which is one of the layers of the eye. The uvea comprises three structures- the iris, ciliary body, and choroid, which could get damaged in uveitis cases.Possible Causes and Holistic ApproachThe causes of uveitis are diverse and often unknown. A holistic approach considers dietary, lifestyle, and nutritional interventions to reduce inflammation and potentially save the affected eye. Many believe uveitis is triggered by infections or autoimmune responses, leading to continuous inflammation and tissue damage.Genetic PredispositionAppaloosa horses are eight times more likely to develop equine recurrent uveitis, indicating a genetic predisposition. Despite that, horse owners should focus on mitigating the condition with an appropriate diet and lifestyle changes to reduce inflammation and support tissue repair.Stress and ToxicityStress and toxicity are significant triggers for uveitis flare-ups. Stressful events, like separation from the herd or lifestyle changes, can exacerbate the condition. Toxins from medications or vaccinations can also overload the immune system, leading to increased inflammation.Free Radical DamageFree radicals cause considerable damage to tissues, contributing to conditions like uveitis. Antioxidants play a role in neutralizing free radicals, as they protect the tissues from oxidative stress and potential DNA mutations.Connection to Metabolic DisordersHorses with metabolic disorders like insulin resistance or Cushing's disease are more susceptible to uveitis. Those conditions cause chronic inflammation and tissue breakdown, particularly affecting the eyes.Importance of Liver HealthA healthy liver is crucial for eye health, as the liver is responsible for metabolism and detoxification. Supporting liver function through proper diet and supplementation can help reduce the toxic load on the body, protecting the eyes from further damage.Dietary ConsiderationsDietary management is essential, as a diet that minimizes metabolic stress and supports liver function helps to manage the progression of uveitis. It is crucial to eliminate excess sugars, fats, and proteins, as they can exacerbate inflammation and put additional pressure on the liver. Instead, focus on a balanced diet rich in fiber and essential nutrients.Antioxidants and SupplementsThe antioxidants most beneficial for uveitis include zinc, vitamin E, vitamin C, N-acetyl cysteine (NAC), and Coenzyme Q10. Those help reduce inflammation and support overall eye health. However, supplementation should be approached cautiously and tailored to the individual needs of each horse.Homeopathic RemediesHomeopathic remedies like Apis, derived from honeybees, can reduce inflammation and swelling in uveitis cases. However, addressing underlying factors such as stress and metabolic imbalances is also essential.ConclusionManaging uveitis requires a comprehensive approach that includes dietary adjustments and addressing underlying health issues. By reducing inflammation and oxidative stress, owners can improve the outcomes for horses suffering from this chronic...

Discover the remarkable journey of Dr. Sruthi Arepalli as she conquers the challenges of building a thriving ophthalmology practice specializing in two subspecialties: retina and uveitis.

When Catherine Miller became a mum to twins, she decided her hands weren't full enough so wrote a novel with every spare moment she managed to find. By the time the twins were two, Catherine had a two-book deal with Carina UK. There is a possibility she has aged remarkably in that time. Her debut novel, Waiting For You, came out in March 2016.Catherine was a NHS physiotherapist, but for health reasons (Uveitis and Sarcoidosis) she retired early from this career. As she loved her physiotherapy job, she decided if she couldn't do that she would pursue her writing dream. It took a few years and a couple of babies, but in 2015 she won the Katie Fforde bursary, was a finalist in the London Book Fair Write Stuff Competition and highly commended in Woman magazine's writing competition. Soon afterwards she signed with Carina. Soon after that, she collapsed in a heap and was eventually revived by chocolate.Since then she's become an internationally bestselling novelist and hasn't found a week that didn't require revival by chocolate. She is one eighth of The Romaniacs – a group of writing friends who've supported each other since meeting through The Romantic Novelists' Association's New Writers' Scheme.Her latest novel is THE DAY I LOST HER:As I stare at the girl, I feel my heart pound inside my chest. There she is, my daughter, right in front of me after all this time. I have to reach her, to hold her, before I lose her all over again…I have experienced what no mother should: I have lost my child. Many years ago, after my divorce, my daughter moved in with her father, and then went missing…For years, I searched everywhere for my darling girl, but she had vanished without a trace. But even on my darkest days, when my heart felt truly broken, I kept a hope alive inside – a hope that my little girl would, one day, find her way back to me.And now, standing in front of me, so close I could touch her, is a young woman who looks just like my beloved Tilly. I've been reminded of her so many times over the years, but this is different. The curve of her face, the sound of her voice…But just as my heart leaps with unimaginable joy, she disappears into the crowd and I lose sight of her. I can't believe she has gone before I had the chance to reach her.As I desperately scan the faces around me, my heart pounding in my chest, I realise I am certain that she was my little girl, back after all these years. But why would she seek me out now, just to vanish all over again? And how can I find her? Because no matter how much time has passed, she will always be my little girl… And I will do whatever it takes to hold her in my arms once more.An absolutely unputdownable and gripping story about one mother's quest to find her little girl. Fans of Jojo Moyes, Jodi Picoult and Diane Chamberlain will be hooked on this emotional book until the very final page.BUY IT HERE: https://amzn.to/45qfFxyHey! We have spent 3 years using StreamYard.

Our eyes: reflections of the soul, can say more than lips without need of translation and give us a glimpse into stories only a journey can record. Our next guest knows this all too well as he's made a career of looking at rheumatic disease through a different lens. Quite literally. Join us this week for an illuminating discussion with Dr. James T. Rosenbaum, MD, rheumatologist and author of over 650 peer-reviewed manuscripts. Dr. Rosenbaum is credited as being both one of the world's most impactful uveitis scientists for the years 2013 to 2023 and the only practicing rheumatologist to have headed a department of ophthalmology. Dr. Rosenbaum helps us put uveitis into focus this week as we discuss what it is, how he treats it, how to determine if those with it have other rheumatic conditions, and which patients with rheumatic disease should seek additional treatment with an ophthalmologist. 

Dr. Wendy Smith shares her uveitis expertise with us regarding the evaluation and treatment of patients with uveitis.  Dr. Smith breaks down her work up and treatment algorithms, concerns for chronic immunosuppression and when to refer.  This is a high yield, can't miss episode, for any one who cares for patients with inflammatory disorders.  Subscribe to the podcast:  https://MayoClinicOphthalmology.podbean.com  Follow and reach out to us on Twitter: @mayocliniceye

All right now on to the show.   01:37 Hey everybody, it's Dr. Sam and I want to take a question today from a listener. She's got high eye pressure, but she doesn't have glaucoma. So I want to go into the causes and what you can do to bring your eye pressure down. So in ocular hypertension, there's a consistently high eye pressure reading that the doctor measures, but there's no optic nerve damage or visual field loss. Usually it's a problem with either the aqueous production or the drainage in the eye. And this is what causes the high eye pressure. So even though I am a believer in the epigenetics model, which says that the genes are expressed, based on our environment, our diet lifestyle, there is a link genetically if your parents or grandparents have had glaucoma, you do have a higher risk of having either glaucoma or in this case, ocular hypertension. I've also seen that as you get older, and you have more free radical damage or inflammation in the eye, there's a higher risk of ocular hypertension and or glaucoma. And in ethnicity, African Americans tend to have more glaucoma or ocular hypertension. And so these are things to note if you fall into any of those categories. So I've done many video blogs and podcasts on primary open angle glaucoma, narrow angle glaucoma, you can find those on my website or YouTube or Facebook. But today because the question is about ocular hypertension, I want to talk about some other causes. One of the causes could be taking either oral or topical corticosteroids. So when you take steroids, this can artificially raise the eye pressure. And so you have ocular hypertension, if you're taking any kind of corticosteroids. I've also found that eye trauma or eye injury can cause ocular hypertension. And this trauma can change the fluid dynamics and flow in the aqueous. And this is another reason why I've seen ocular hypertension. I've also seen that certain eye inflammatory diseases like iritis and Uveitis can drive the eye pressure up. And even secondary glaucoma like pseudo exfoliation, glaucoma, which has these flakes that can deposit in the drainage areas of the eye, which also cause ocular hypertension. You know, another thing that I asked a lot about is what kind of medications you're taking, because certain medications can actually cause your eye pressure to go up. So let's go through the list. We have things like decongestants anti depressants, any histamines so in treating this condition and I want to talk more holistically are using integrative medicine. One of the herbs I like is something called Coleus and you can get This is a tincture,

Welcome back to our weekend Cabral HouseCall shows! This is where we answer our community's wellness, weight loss, and anti-aging questions to help people get back on track! Check out today's questions:    Heather: Hi, me again! I also had a quick question about the natural flavors listed on the ingredient list for the Daily Fruit and Vegetable powder. What is it? I was under the impression that natural flavors are just another word for artificial flavors but I doubt you would put that in any of your products. Thanks for taking the time to answer our questions!   Amal: Hi Dr Cabral, I've been diagnosed with an inflammatory eye condition called Uveitis in my left eye. Doctors have not looked into what's causing it but I think it is autoimmune. I also seem to have something called lipedema. Everytime I try to detox my body, it will accelerate the inflammation in my eye, causing further damage to the eye. I tried to take iodine and it would help my eye but cause me to rapid fat gain everywhere. I then tried N acetyl cysteine and the same rapid weight gain but it would lower inflammation in the eye and clear my vision. Then I tried chlorella and spirulina and I would feel coolness in my eyes in 10 mins and it would clear my floaters, inflammation and improve vision. However I will gain a lot of body fat within 2 days of taking the chlorella & spirulina. I came across gynostemma herbal tea and I started losing weight within days but my eye would start hurting and I could also feel weakness in my right eye. I'm not sure what to do. I cant lose the weight without hurting my eye and I can't detox my liver or the rest of my body without gaining weight. My hair has become damaged and dry and I have developed a lot of cellulite on my legs and excess fat around my ankles and everywhere else. I am trying to work on gut health Any advice would be helpful.    Alicja: Hi Dr. Cabral, I would love to get your opinion about inducing period with prescription drugs. I lost my periods a while ago, but I'm only 38 so probably too early to be menopausal. 4 years ago I was pregnant and then was breastfeeding my baby for a while. It's been about 2 years since I stopped breastfeeding, but my cycles don't want to return. After having my baby I developed gut issues. Later I also found out I have hypothyroidism and Hashimoto. I've been addressing both. Overall I feel now much better and stronger comparing to where I was a year ago (thanks to moving to a new house and thanks to your protocols. I've done para pro and currently I'm in the muddle of CBO protocol) I should mention that I am underweight (BMI: 16.2) Since I've been feeling better recently, do you think I could now "induce" my period with a medication? Or do you think I should still wait longer until my body decides it's time. I'm not sure if it's good for me to be that long without cycles. I often hear from other women that once first period is induced, next ones come on their own. I tried Vitex in the past but stopped because I didn't feel well taking it. Thank you so much for your answer. I'm forever thankful for all your help.    Paula: Can you do a podcast on adolescent sports medicine or adolescent sports nutrition? Thanks.   Lynn: Hi Dr. Cabral, I've enjoyed your podcast for years now, thank you for such great content. Recently I was diagnosed with posterior vitreous detachment by my optometrist. What would you suggest? Thank you so much Lynn    Zak: Hi Dr. Cabral, I have been looking at taking NMN together with Trans Resveratrol however am concerned about any implications these 2 supplements may have on Hashimotos which I have. I have read a pubmed study suggesting that TSH may increase and that NMN is an antagonist to thyroid hormones? I would love to take NMN for all the benefits mentioned in your previous podcast however have reservations. Are you a able to shed some light on the effects NMN may have on the thyroid in particular Hashimotos? Thanks so much for all your insightful material.
