I got allergic contact dermatitis from using a hair product. It affected my scalp. I stopped using it and then it still spread to the rest of my body. My doctors gave me antibiotics and steroid creams. Nothing worked permanently. This lasted for SIX MONTHS. I read a book that it had to do with gut health and vitamin D deficiency. I got sunlight, ate salmon, took vitamin D supplements, I cut out sugars and added prebiotic fiber and I felt a difference in two weeks. In another two weeks, my skin healed and the itching stopped. This experience inspired me to start my own channel talking about this stuff. If you are suffering, there's a cure!
How does cardiac mri fit in. I have symptoms. Ct is normal, so is an nuclear stress spect and so is a cardiac stress mri. Does it rule out microvascular disease?
Thank you very much Dr. Jeff Yu you are such a knowledgeable doctor and very informative. Learned a lot from you rather than my dermatologist. ❤ please keep posting your thoughts and experiences. I have diagnosed with contact dermatitis more in fragrance and Parfume. I work at orthodontist practice where i have started. Can someone give me more clues about at orthodontist place. Where someone have been allergic working there. Otherwise i have to quit asap😢
I just watched the PBS show with Dr. Tanzi and am interested in knowing if there is a need for research participants. I am 81 years old and in very good health. My doctors say that they wish their patients would take as good care of themselves as I do. I worked at MGH in the early 2000's in the Reading Disabilities Unit when doctors were discovering Brain Elasticity. I was intrigued then as I am now. If I can help with research, I would be honored.

Very informative, thank you!! I’m atm trying to treat contact dermatitis due to essential oil (put Oregano oil on an itchy mosquito bite - boy was that a mistake!!) so as of the day before yesterday I’m using aveeno 1% hydrocortisone and half hour later I apply plain original Vaseline on top. I had to buy my Vaseline new because I was shocked to see that the BABY VASELINE (Vaseline brand even!) that I had on hand contained FRAGRANCE! I was wowed!! Why they would add fragrance to baby items is truly puzzling to me!! Smh
EDS Society has a worldwide registry of EDS (Ehlers Danlos Syndrome)/HSD (Hypermobile Spectrum Disorder) ppl and therefore would be a great database for ppl who want to do research on SFN.

I was stung by a bee & broke out in hives and welts everywhere. I didn’t know how allergic I was. The epi pen was a miracle cure for me in the hospital! Thank goodness for it! Cleared most of my skin in 20 minutes 🙌
I'm crying watching this my 8 year old daughter has this we've had this same story trying to find the diagnosis and being told it's a tic or we were most recently told it's just a self soothing thing like nail bitting. My daughter had a 3min right gaze seizure that started from her hand waving which finally lead us to a neurologist who prescribed keppra and ordered a eeg and MRI. I'm so thankful we're not alone and now have all this information to bring to the neurologist. I'm here in southern California walking distance to the beach I'm so thankful hearing about your son enjoying outdoors we are a surfing, snowboarding swimming dirtbike riding type of a family and our daughter loves being outside in the fresh air. She also enjoys gardening too. I wish they had more options for shade 5 welding sunglasses that would fit kids.
I learned nothing in this video about what diabetes screening is like what they do that was mean for the name of this video to seem like that's what's going to happen in this video
I firmly believe that many neuropathies are from trauma ptsd fear aces etc. i do not buy that people have destroyed nerves. Physical visual too. Our brains create. Its idiopathic
I got mine from putting polysporin ointment on a couple of dry spots on my face. I woke up with a poison ivy type rash on the spots where I put it. It kept spreading all over my face, neck, and chest and lasted 7 days.
