World Records Doctors Can't Explain Ep. 2

I love it when Dr. Mike swears. It somehow adds to how articulate he is.

the over-producing lady is so sweet for donating all of her milk. what a way to make your disability work for you. that’s amazing. she’s very kind, especially in today’s age! it must be very painful for her either way and her choosing to donate milk and continue to do so is such a feat that i think most people wouldn’t be able to do. i hope she gets her condition under control or removed, because she deserves to rest after donating so much!!

The rest of Roy C. Sullivans story is really quite sad, he became paranoid and thought God wanted to killed him ,not a completely unjustified thought given all that happened to him (bonus fact his 7th lightning strike happened to also mark the 22nd time he fought a bear off with a stick) , he also always carried a canteen of water to put out the fire that inevitably would start on his head. It's also reported that people started shunning and avoiding him out of fear it was somehow contagious or dangerous to be around him. He reportedly took his own life at the age of 71 by gunshot, next to his wife, who allegedly did not notice for SEVERAL HOURS.

That girl that over lactates is really making the best of it by donating so much. She’s helping so many people

We appreciate Dr Mike's insights. They're straightforward and detailed from start to finish.

Explain it then

When my eldest was only a year old, we were in the chemist waiting for a script and he did a burp so loud that the staff at the front of the store though someone was vomiting and came running with cleaning equipment. As a father it was my proudest moment so far.

7:11 Doctor Mike acknowledging patients lived experiences. That's how you know he's an awesome doctor.

"We always talk about on this channel, Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome is one of those conditions that doctors do a SHITTY job at diagnosing" one of my favorite things about Dr.Mike is how candid he is and it's awesome 😂💙

Thank you, thank you, thank you for talking about EDS again. It feels so good to hear a well respected doctor call out how poorly diagnosed it is. You are making a difference just by talking about it. Thank you Dr Mike.

as someone who has eds, it was really cool to see Dr. Mike talk abt it and even acknowledge how poorly a lot medical professionals address. it just feels nice to be recognized and have the struggle be heard

Found out I could make myself burp when I was in primary school. They had to send me home because I wouldn’t stop.

as someone with EDS i love the amount that you talk about the condition. educating others about it is absolutely amazing and thank you for that!

Jim is inspiring. Mans 90 years old and moves better than some who arent even 1/3rd his. My mans got that down, well done.

Sleep deprivation is the scariest thing to me. that someone would voluntarily try to delve into that world is so terrifying to me.

hearing about the legitimate risks from a doctor about EDS is such a breath of fresh air. my mom and i have EDS, with her having a very rare and specific subtybe (arthrochalasia or type VIIA-B) and there is a lot more to EDS than meets the eye.

I have EDS and POTS, and both sides of my family have EDS and POTS. It took me SO LONG to get a diagnosis. It was really frustrating to spend years trying to find a solution to random medical things (have back surgery before 20 and having my xiphoid process removed because it didn't form properly, my sternum isn't fused togefher, etc) that were actually EDS all along. Thank you Dr. Mike for validating me!!!

As someone who really struggles with my EDS and chronic pain I always feel heard when you talk about it! It makes me feel a little less alone.

I have a severe Anaphylaxic reaction to capsaicin. I am Hispanic & grew up eating spicy foods but as I hit my mid to late 20's? It would hurt & give me severe acid reflux but not just any old pain & acid relux. It felt like my insides were melting & my esophagus was eroding away. I eventually just had to cut all peppers, things w/ any peppers in them, and I could only eat Bell Peppers. Fast forward a couple of years and I get hospitalized for complications again from my Behcet's Disease. I was in severe pain and it wad about a hour from my next pain pump dose. The nurses were so great & so caring. After not being able to get a hold of a doctor? They said they could try Capsaicin Cream. I told desperately them I would try anything. They warned me it would burn but it just kept getting hotter. Like a heating pad to a red hot iron feeling alllll over my abdomen. I kept thinking it must be normal & I'm just being a baby but it eventually got so bad that I couldn't hide the discomfort & start crying, ripping at my gown. I finally get it off to see most of my skin across my abdomen looked melted away, peeling back, and bleeding. Then my throat started get poofy & gunky. After a good barrage of IV meds? I was feeling okay enough to communicate w/ the doctor. I told him why I had to stop eating peppers (the horrific sulfuric acid burn from mouth alllllll the way through the other end. Leaving unable to move, curled over in pain. Plus, the acid reflux that would leave it hard to talk.) But that I COULD eat bell peppers. Bell peppers do not have Capsaicin in them. Well - a very long story, short? 😅 Listen to your body, it often knows more than you do. 😆👏😍💞

5:38: she won't have any issues at the dentist
