Physician/Internist focused on complex illness including Long Covid, ME/CFS, dysautonomia/POTS, MCAS, connective tissue disorder, and of course SIBO/Leaky Gut.
And sadly, the ongoing coup.

Unraveled: Posting another episode tomorrow, July 9, at 9AM.
New Patient--The First Appointment.
Full disclosure: this is long, almost 90 minutes. Which makes sense since this first appointment is a critical to establishing a relationship and beginning the detective work.

Just posted Episode II of our conversation on Post Exertional Malaise--PEM. This is the hallmark symptom of ME/CFS and Long Covid and we continue our struggle to understand the cause and treat the condition. It is profoundly disabling and disruptive for our patients.

More great stuff from Dr. Crystal's newsletter:

"The review shows that Long COVID affects multiple organ systems, with key findings including mitochondrial dysfunction, immune dysregulation, blood–brain barrier disruption, coagulopathy, and microbiome disturbances"

This is what happens when you purposely destroy government. People will die. Trump is a murderer.
