Hello fellow Zebra!!!

I find it interesting that even when things are caused by the uterus, they just shrug and give up even though it's a complicated organ.

Or that it's all in your head. Are you getting enough sleep/water/exercise/vitamins?

💀

@@TheLoneMittenikr!

There actually iS Whipples Disease!

Yes!!

It’s like Kevin Bacon- it all goes back to tuberculosis.

Well I mean Tropheryma Whipplei (Whipple’s Disease bacteria) and Mycobacterium Tuberculosis are both in the Actinomycetia class, so they are distant relatives.

😂😂

​@ThreeJaw ok, you seem to know stuff, like real medical stuff, this stuff in particular. Is this loosely based on truth? Dr. Whipple was a real dude? 😂😂 for real, I don't know.

Have you been tested for tuberculosis? Or potentially something like Celiac disease? obviously, I'm not your doctor or anything, but I feel like there are things you could do. Maybe a fecal transplant, I'm not sure. Whipple's Triad might be something to look into.

My mom was often sick with various illnesses throughout her life... seemingly unrelated illnesses... she had skin issues, stomach issues, bowel issues, headaches and migraines, along with various other problems, then her blood started dropping (meaning she was really low on red blood cells). That's when she was finally diagnosed with celiac disease. She was in her late 40s or early 50s when she was finally diagnosed. Going on a gluten-free diet helped her feel better. My dad died of cancer... he had celiac, too, but he didn't know that until it was too late. The blood tests for celiac aren't always accurate if they are negative... positive ones are accurate, but the negative ones aren't. The only accurate tests are the scope (where they put a scope into your digestive tract and see what it looks like). The tests also only work if you've been eating gluten for at least three months... so they can't get accurate results on anyone who is currently on a gluten-free diet. I'd recommend that anyone having certain symptoms, especially digestive symptoms, look up the symptoms for celiac disease, and then, if they match, go get tested. Celiac disease is something people are born with, but some people don't get bad symptoms until later in life... but other people get symptoms really early in life. My brother knew his son had celiac while his son was still a baby because he already had symptoms.

Pott’s too, I think? Pretty sure he’s got at least 2 things, but i believe he also saved the lives of a bunch of victorian orphans so i’m not complaining

Charcot enters the chat.... If charcot lived a few more years All of medicine would be called charcot-ism. Lol. We would use the charcotblade to cut the charcot nodule out of the charcot organ and sew it up with charcot suture and prescribe charcot-icillin to prevent streptocharcot infection.

Trendelenburg is a legend too

What many don't seem to know is that eponyms for some diseases, although the same, were often after different doctors of the same name. There was more than one Osler for example. Some were related, others, like the two Whipples, were not. The Whipple procedure we do today is not the one he developed by the way, but we still call it that to honor him.

​@@Auric-BraiNerdOH MY GOD

@@darkopzthe description says early 1900s???

@@i.cantdrinkmilk Lol wow. You’re right. My brain read 1990s. I don’t think my brain was going to read this right until you pointed it out. Much appreciated.

That’s exactly what I was thinking

Idk. It kind of still applies. Women weren't listened to in 1910 and they weren't listened to in 1990 lol. Just hysteria. Just pms lol.

I am adamantly childfree, and even though he knew this, my old doctor told me that having a baby might cure my migraines.

​@@racheeerachyou do you. But I will tell you that I didn't have a migraine for about 11 years after my son was born. I have chronic migraines. They are back though. It's not a cure.

You get the cooler name. I have Ulcerative Colitis.

@@MattGray35at least yours is objective and descriptive.

​@@MattGray35Hey! That's Doctor Ulcerative Colitis to you!

Hey at least yall got a name for it, i have an "unspecified form of chronic inflammatory bowel disease"

As the symptoms were being listed, I, a fellow Crohnie, thought, “That sounds like Crohn’s!” When Dr. Whipple said, “Perhaps bacteria,” I thought about how I used to get prescribed antibiotics to help treat my Crohn’s. It got too real when the doctor recommended a small-bowel surgery. I had an ileal resection last year.

I had it done to myself due to cancer its a very hard surgery to recover from

i had one too. three years later, my body still hasn’t recovered. shit is TOUGH

S hi

A wise man once said: 'You better squeeze all the Charmin you can when Mr. Whipple's not around'.

I caught that too. HI-larious

The cocaine comes after the surgery to counteract all the heroin she's gonna be prescribed

Except no.

My psychiatrist just did this a few weeks ago when I told him that increasing my bipolar medication helped me reduce my skin picking (an anxiety driven condition). He said, "Huh. That's interesting. That's not in the literature as a side effect." So he wrote it down in my chart never again to see the light of day. 😂

@@Just1Nora Haha, ohh doctors 🤣

Lynch Syndrome is genetic and dominant, so you’re still a carrier.

@ferretyluv I know. I have many cousins who have it. All my father's siblings had it but got cancer as seniors. The next generation got it (cancer) in their 30s, 40s and early 50s.

Eyyyy I just got my Lynch diagnosis! Stay strong, and hard avoid any existential crises that may arise or you won't get out of bed for at least a day

Never heard of that! Gonna have to look it up

​@@ferretyluv Uh? It's true that Lynch syndrome is dominant, but that means this person _doesn't_ carry it if they don't have it. Their children will be at no greater risk of having Lynch syndrome than they'd be of being born with any other dominant genetic disorder via de novo mutation

Same thing happens through science, especially in taxonomy. My favorite example is the spider whose official scientific name is Heterpoda davidbowie. Desis bobmarleyi is pretty cool too.

Or because of your period (hormone fluctuation). I was told that after having my gallbladder removed & still getting pancreatitis. 🤦🏻‍♀️

No, no, no... it's OBVIOUSLY because you're overweight. That's what I was told when I went in for a broken wrist.

​@@Makoshark83That makes no sense. Why would they not diagnose a fracture?

​@@lonewanderer8414it doesn't. It's not supposed to. Most people in dire need will overlook it. Now it's all about how to make more money, without actually treating the true root of the problem without a convincing persuasion

@@lonewanderer8414they probably did say she broke her wrist but then also said the reason was because she’s overweight

Maybe the broken foot needed to be fixed to make exercise possible without lots of pain. Then they could recommend weight loss.

Welp, I have bad news for you. Being told it's not real, your faking it, it's all in your head, it's probably just your period its normal or your just a drug seeker .... is arguably worse. Unknown is scary but at least they are admitting they don't know. A doctor writting down in your chart things that will bias the opinion of any future care provider is a sure bet to getting improper care. I've actually been in these situations, the unknown and complete dismissals. Unknown usually leads to more invasive, uncommon and expensive tests, or medication experimentation to see if you have a reaction or improve.

@@Anon-ed1bb Had the same problem. Happens still every now and then.

@@Anon-ed1bb Yes, it is 😢

Or what my doctor said: "well, the good news is you aren't going to die. But, the bad news is also you're not gonna die" Basically I'll be in constant pain until I can't take it anymore.

Actually the whole point of hormones as a concept is that they funnily enough were just a lighter, milder replacement for older concepts and ways for dismissing women's pain..like hysteria

I was very close to having Whipple surgery. I did some research and decided the cure was much worse than the disease. Said no, use Creon religiously and stay away from fatty meals and gluten. Still have chronic pancreatitis but I’m alive.

​@@TheLoneMittendo y'all bust at the seems if you don't bring up racism every 5 mins regardless of it has anything to do with the topic? I truly don't understand

I’m thankful that it’s becoming a recognized condition now. When I was first experiencing symptoms in early 2021, I was being sent to a bunch of different docs who tried to treat separate issues. Then finally more and more research started coming out and now they’re looking at the issue as a whole. The problem isn’t solved, but at least I have a slightly clearer idea of what’s going on. Good luck to you, and I hope you see some improvement in the future; but until then I hope you find things to make a life you enjoy at whatever level of capability you currently have. 😊
