Lupus Doctor Explains: Are Doctors Missing Rashes in People of Colour? (Diagnosing Lupus)

Рет қаралды 112,880

Күн бұрын

Mustapher became critically ill and was diagnosed with lupus at the age of 22. In this video you'll learn about his symptoms and his journey to diagnosis. You'll also find out how a classic lupus rash can be missed when it's on a person with dark skin.
But this isn't an issue limited to rashes in lupus. Physicians are less comfortable diagnosis and treating skin disease and rashes in people of colour. We're going to discuss some specific ways that we can start changing the system together!

SO important to talk about this, at medical school we are often shown skin manifestations of systemic diseases only in white people. That is not good enough, we need to be able to recognise and treat medical diseases no matter what colour the skin of the patient is.

Oh gosh, this was my exact story... Except my diagnosis was Lyme Disease. They dismissed me, said I was a depressed student, thought I was sniffing for drugs, etc. I even had abdominal inflammation (lymph nodes, building, blood in urine) and they thought cancer. Anyways, I may not be a POC, but my age made it impossible for doctors to take it seriously. We have leaps and bounds to go with prejudice in the medical field.

@Butwhy that's simply factually incorrect. Sexual characteristics, both primary and secondary, hugely affect physiology, and so pathophysiology. As a different example, ischemic heart disease is much more common in males, and quickly equalises after menopause for females, because oestrogens are cardioprotective.

I was diagnosed with SLE after a year of pain throughout my whole body. I finally went to the hospital when the pain between my shoulder blades caused dyspnea and unable to lay down, just to be told I had a muscles spasm in my back. This was no muscle spasm pain, I knew something was wrong. Two weeks later I return to the hospital with same systems including fatigue, marlar rash, joint pain and upper back pain. Turns out, I was septic, kidney failure and echo showed percardial effusion and cardiomeagly. I have to give my most thanks to two residents that help me find out what was wrong. And yes, plaquenil and Benlysta have been helping me stay in remission and my flares are now mild

It’s encouraging to hear from someone who felt like I’ve felt: sick, afraid you’ll never be successful, never get a job or a life, saying you’re on the other side, and those things *aren’t* an impossibility. I don’t have lupus, and have never been nearly as ill as you were, but the emotions are similar for any chronic condition. It helps to hear from a real person that it can get better. Thanks.

I'm a medical student in France btw and these books are supposed to be the reference for the final exam that will make us doctors!!! Does this mean we are only supposed to treat white patients!!!! Thankfully in our many rotations at the hospital we see ppl of all colors/shapes because that is what the real world is!! I hope things change but for it to change we have to keep being vocal about it like you did :) (loved the vid and it made me revise my lupus checklist of symptoms at the same time haha)

Like you said, this is a hugely complicated problem that comes up in basically every avenue of healthcare.. I am a phlebotomist and I know many of my colleagues (me as well sometimes) struggle more on darker skin and tattooed skin. Just like with the lack of images of rashes on darker skin, I think exposure is the root of the problem. We learn on white vein blocks, white dummies, and largely white volunteers. That needs to change, so everyone can have a better experience.

same, I have to coordinate several doctors to treat my lupus, sometimes even having contradicting diagnosis or explanations. I usually follow rheumatologist instructions first and ask them to call each other o write reports that I can take with me to the next consult. Some doctors are really bad at giving out reasons for the treatment and you have to ask , since the patients are the ones who have to explain to the next doctor about that decision

I knew something was wrong and it got worse as time went on. 5 years I went with doctors saying im crazy.....im depressed.....until last year I was at my wits end ......and finally got the clear to see a rheumatologist. Diagnosed I was beside myself.....I was for sure he would tell me I was crazy! Like others have before. I almost fell in the floor after all these labs..... then he came in and told me.

Siobhan, this is such an important video. I'm not a POC, but I see what they struggle with in the medical field and this is one step in the right direction. The power of good education can't be understated. Talk about using your platform for the greater good!

What a fantastic video! Important conversation to have and, as you said, a good reminder for all of us in any career to walk into each moment with humility, openness, and curiosity. I accept your challenge! :) Thank you for sharing your journey as a doctor, but also as a human on planet Earth.

As a lupus patient it is GREAT to see more people talking about lupus. I am also an RN in the US and it shocks me every time I have to go to the hospital or see a new dr how little many know about lupus! Thank You for sharing this!!

I am a Group A Streptococcal disease researcher and this is also a huge problem for a lot of disease manifestations strep causes - particularly scarlet fever and in some cases of acute rheumatic fever and rheumatic heart disease. This was a great video and a reminder to include diversity in both diagnostics and research!
