I can’t believe more people haven’t seen this! As a left-handed woman who comes from a left-handed family you are describing my biggest frustrations living in this society.
Awesome, so happy this young man is doing well and I am certain the Dr Steig had to have a wonderful feeling that this young man reached out to him after all these years !
That's a great lecture and thank you everyone. From an EDS patient prospective, I found out that NASID was not effective at all because Prolo therapy approved the opposite as promoting some tiny inflammation at some defected ligaments / Tendons came out with a very effective results as it helped in tightened these ligaments / Tendons and that's what we wanted to do for long term treatment plan.

I have this… only 2mm at the moment that I’m aware of … I’m terrified. I have all the symptoms and have for 3 years now, no fluid build up but life has been difficult
I know this video is old at this point so nobody is likely to respond, but what happens with the removed vomer/cartilaginous septum afterwards? is the patient just left with, like, half of their septum or was there another procedure done to replace it? I know at 5:12 it's stated that the removed septum may be used for reconstruction, but is this meant as reconstruction of the septum or reconstruction of the sella? Would be amazing if anyone could answer this!
I have Hemifacial spasm over 5 year now and when I smiled is show crooked, I’m very worried. Can you help me how can I get my mouth normal again, I have vestibular schwannom tumors too.my eye stop twitching but my mouth is I can feel the never on my face. I do boxto every three month .
Dr. Stieg, I have had what I would call Type 2 TN on v.2 and v.3, but no MRI or MRA scan find a problem. However, the pain is pretty darned obvious to me! Now, we toss in one more factor that may be a contributing cause. Just last week I had an angiogram and it did show something quite condemning to me--an 80% blocked artery. FYI, I'm 83 and swim regularly, play the tenor sax and restore old cars, so I'm not exactly dottering old man with one foot in the grave. My doctors are now saying rest, don't bend over, and resist your normal level of activity. I am not very happy about all of this. Could my TN-pain like systems be due to a blockage in my brain?
I hate that they want to Gatekeep on fusion surgery out of fear that someone wouldnt heal well. Come on, Sir, that train left the station. It really cant get worse only better. That is the reality when you are looking fir a fusion. Its your last ditch chance. Dont gatekeep that. Before my fusion I had no quality of life
I developed a mild foot drop two weeks ago following a lumbar fusion on disc 4 and 5. I had tingling if the toes and pain in my calf after surgery. That has gone, but I realize lifting my toes and foot up while my heal is on the ground is challenging. Is there any exercise I can do to help with restoring proper movement in my foot?
I am in my late 50s and I precisely remember myriads of moments from my childhood to the present day. Those are the episodes where I had emotional connection to the events or situation. My guess is that emotions (good or bad) preserve and perpetuate memories on limitless spans because the recall is pushed to the limbic area as opposed to the analytic grey matter that would otherwise discard "non-important memories by analytic prioritization." I am not a specialist in the field so this was my lay interpretation.
Thank you ... this is very interesting ... may i ask why some of us are sensitive to the frequencies from cell Towers ... I know its not thermal ...we are all biologicly different ...just like some are alergic to peanuts ...our Brains are electrical and the interferance from EMF ... can and is torture ... can anything be done to stop this my body has become exhausted from these Frequencies...... Thank you in advance
I'm 84!!!! My whole life. Weak ankles had to be wrapped as toddler so I could walk. Asthma and allergies at 10 and now have COPD. At 15, both knees dislocate playing football. Continue to dislocate thru life even with many surgeries. Develop IBS in 20s. Constant joint pain. Many anxiety and depression issues over the years. Carpal tunnel surgery. Open heart surgery in 70s. I can't believe the connections with connective tissue disease. These symptoms are shared by my children and my sister's children. WoW.
im 62, my mother died delivering me of a hemorrhaged uterus. My knees would dislocate starting around the first grade. No one had a clue. After many subluxations, dislocations and injuries ive had 14 different surguries to repair damage, arthritis, and relieve pain. Both knees, elbow, shoulders, wrists, hands, cervical and lumbar spine, even my keister. I always had it, so I've adjusted over the years. I often say that if it hit me all at once, the pain would make me want kill myself. Worst thing is i gave it to my kids. At least they know and take easy physically. I didn't find out til my mid 30s. I drove a oil tanker tractor trailer, a redimix cement truck and studied Krav Maga for many years. I should have been playing chess
I recommend Casa Colina Rehabilitation Hospital. The PT department has EDS trained professionals. I am very please with their care and highly recommend Casa Colina Rehabilitación Hospital, Pomona, California
I was recently diagnosed at age 72 Y/O with EDS by Dr Newman, rheumatologist at Eisenhower Medical Center. I had received PT at Casa Colina Rehabilitación Hospital after Hip replacement and shoulders surgery.
I always knew I was flexible, but nobody told me I was extremely hypermobile until my 6th physical therapist ever, on my 4th round of PT, at age 37. It wasn’t until I began looking into hypermobility and stumbled upon Dr. Linda Bluestein (on Dr. Glaucomflecken’s Knock Knock Hi) show that I realized my IBS-C, SIBO, neck pain, disc problems, hip issues, eczema, skin scarring problems after surgery, fibromyalgia, chronic pain, severe chronic fatigue, migraines, allergies that only got worse despite 12+ years of immunotherapy, and asthma that never really responded to albuterol were ALL interconnected. Currently hoping the rheumatologist I’m meeting soon will be able to help figure out where along the hypermobility spectrum I belong.
What do you expect for blood pressure change right after the CBT removal (because you mentioned that the separation point at the carotid artery is essential for blood pressure regulation)?
