Vaping is not harmless, but It's not the point here. The point is vaping is a safer alternative to cigarettes. You don't smoke now, don't vape. If you are a smoker why won't you switch to a less harmful option??? Why?? And why not encourage smokers to vape and then quit entirety? Why let them take greater damage rather than switching to vape?

Thank you doctor. A comprehensive explanation

My bf is in the hospital with a concussion

There do not seem to be any studies regarding the development of CRPS and any links to childhood emotional trauma and/or PTSD. Are there any current studies out there?

idk if anyone is ever gonna read this, but hi i was diagnosed with chiari when i was 13 and this really took a toll on my life because i am a cheerleader and this condition caused me excruciating pain whenever i practiced my sport. i did have to quit my sport for a little bit, but i am now 100% back and i dont regret getting the surgery at all. it was hard, painful, and depressing but im so blessed and happy to be back in my sport. please keep your head up and stay positive because i was terrified for my life but i am completely well and healthy. keep going, im proud of you❤

I got diagnosed with Chiari 4 years ago it is not fun!

What are the ingredients in vape only 3 pg,vg pg all things we eat and drink every day

I think the quality of the vape is a big factor most young ppl are smoking disposable vapes witch majority are not fda approved or regulated and illegal almost everywhere with double the nicotine content of a pack of ciggs. It's a double edge sword. The disposables vapes are proven to be worse and harder on the organs and body. I also from experience felt way worse vaping a disposable daily vs half a pack of cigarettes. The plus side of vape is the no tar and lung function as in you will breathe better yes. But it causes harm to lungs in other ways. I got a lung infection from vaping 7 weeks into it. And they are notorious for making u sick and given u headaches and bad side effects if done too often ...witch u jus don't get from cigarettes . .ur literal best method to consume nicotine is threw gum and lozengers and if u want to smoke occasionally or a few a day even .I find this to be a way better method. The idea that marijuana and nic vapes are perfectly fine and cigarette smokers are treated and looked at as aids patients in today's world is pitiful. None are good. All come with pros and cons. And it only really healthy doin zero. I do think the quality of vape finding one that is regulated is key if u want to vape and how often u hit it is key. Same for ciggs the frequency of how many a day u smoke is key. Somebody who smokes 6 a day vs 2 packs is like comparing apples and oranges....and even worse most the ppl from the past who smoked were ridiculously heavy smokers too . Many smoked 3'4' even 5 packs a day u can't compare a study to a half a pack a day smoker to somebody smoking 3-5 packs a day. Vaping is also similar I know ppl who go through a disposable vape in a day or 2 witch has to be really bad vs others it will last 10 days.....my experience I feel better smoking half a pack a day of ciggs then I do vaping a disposable that lasted a week . And do it way less

You wanna give any evidence ?

I have four brain aneurysms. Two very small and two very large. I normally am a very healthy person, hardly even suffer from a cold then one day, all the sudden I started to have this excruciating pain in the back off my head, my vision was blurred, vomiting occurred, I felt totally incapacitated. Then after an hour or so, it would ease up. After two weeks of these episodes I made appointment with my family physician, she listened to my concerns and symptoms and immediately sent me for a head and neck scan within 24 hrs she called with the shocking news... that I had four cerebral aneurysms two of which were large irregular (9mm and 10mm) enough to cause symptoms because they were pressing against tissue of my brain. They were very close to ruptured. I was sent directly to a fantastic neurosurgeon who performed a pteronial approach craniotomy for clipping of the two large aneurysms which saved my life. I call my symptoms my divine intervention so, when your body is trying to tell you something you better listen to it.

Lol don't even know long term effects from vaping. Well we know the long term effects from tobacco that's certain death. Lol

But by the way, stay away from disposable vapes, those difently are the worst in terms of harmness

Everyone knows that vaping is not harmless but bro, between me keeping to constantly smoke cigarrates or start in vaping but not abusing it, is just better, its way better reduce the harmness chance to 5%

This dude has no zero idea what he is talking about

Oddly, I am demanding and wanting my brain surgery for Chiari malformation. I’ve been suffering so bad it’s debilitating me and I can’t work and I can’t function. There has to be hope and a solution and I can’t wait to talk to the surgeon this week.

Your so under appreciated I know so much because you I’m so subbing

Mine was found totally by accident. Had a head injury and had a CT where it was noticed something was off and mri confirmed it. I'd had tinnitus and headaches for a long time before though and thought it was unrelated

Why didn't he slide? He had the first down already

This man should not be playing football. Quite frankly I'm amazed that the dolphins and the NFL aren't taking steps to try and force him into retirement. I really don't want to see this man die on the field or suffer major permanent brain damage.

Can I contact you please? My sister is currently terminally ill with this disease in Ireland. Thank you. Paul.

I have all of these in a debilitating amount and doctors treat me like I’m making up the pain even after going through the decompression surgery that made it even worse. I applied for disability but haven’t had any luck with it so far and I’ve been not able to work for over 2 years now. I hate my state 😪 apparently being in debilitating chronic pain isn’t enough for them, giving up at this point let’s just say it being easy would be an understatement. Are there states that have more recognition for Chiari? I did everything I was supposed to and now I don’t know what to do. Thinking is hard moving is hard and everyone around me is telling ME I can do more when I just can’t. Physically I can’t, and after dealing with pain for 3 years I can’t mentally either…

I have epilepsy, adhd, ptsd and a TBI from a near fatal car accident. I woke up from a coma on 1200mg of neurontin 3 times a day. I’m so afraid of being on this medication. I’ve been a nurse for over 20 years and know if I ever have to come off of it, it’s going to be awful. My car accident was due to a seizure. I had 3 weeks with the inability to form or make new memories. Amnesia-essentially. I functioned, I’ve been told. I was oriented to person & family but confused otherwise. I went undiagnosed until I was 28 & found the definition of a focal aware seizure on GOOGLE. I had described my seizures to muuultiple doctors, including a well renowned neurosurgeon. No one knew what they were. I described them since I was in nursing school 8 years before diagnosis. I was pregnant when I was diagnosed bc after I found that definition, I insisted on an eeg. It was abnormal & started meds when my son was born. My first grand mal was when I was 31. My last was the car accident. I don’t even have a neurologist, right now. Only saw an epileptologist once, after my first grand mal. This TBI has not helped at all. Every day is hard.

ive had mild balance and coordination issues my whole life, have had headaches from couging and laughing too much my whole life. i've been diagnosed with chiari 1 and syringomyelia now at 35 after losing the sensation of temperature in my entire left arm and shoulder. dont know what comes next, but i dont want to lose more feeling but i also dont want brain surgery

says the guy who had a lab coat specifically made for this interview...what a joke

👍

As someone who had an aneurysm clipped on April 29th of this year.my hats were off to the people who were involved. Special, thanks to Ali Kristi for performing it flawlessly

I had headaches for around 6 weeks.and i felt very off.went to the ER,found it on a scan,had it clipped april 29th of this year

Does anyone else have a flare up when they are sick? I’m getting over something and all of a sudden my heart will start pounding and I get so much anxiety. I’m always at the point of calling 911 but I put my feet up and try to relax and it goes away. I’ve learned not to drink coffee daily and to stop it all together when I’m sick but this time I haven’t had coffee for at least 4 days.

Vaping really affected me I quit and went to zyns and I’ve seen improvement

Contaminated that close glove technique the cuff isn’t considered sterile because it is permeable surgeon do not typically do close glove technique because the tech will usually glove and gown them.

"More Doctors Smoke Camels"

I’ve been vaping 10 years or so and no problems whatsoever I go hiking dirt bike riding I’m fine and active no breathing problems at all 😊

My mother just passed away yesterday from a brain aneurysm..

I have multiple aneurysms, two of which were clipped by craniotomy. Everyday I thank God for another day and make each mimute of my life count. Neurosurgeons have the eye's of hawk, the heart of a lion and hands of a lady ~

My life quality is threatened because the quality of my life has gotten so poor. I’m dizzy. I have fatigue. I have migraines that I wouldn’t wish upon my worst enemy, but the migraines aren’t the worst I can’t be active like I used to. That’s

I had one today😊 and im a kid😊😅

❤❤❤❤❤❤❤thank you 😊

I was diagnosed 6 days ago. I have it on the right side of my face.

I had the decompression procedure done at the age of 16, my symptoms were headaches/migraines. After the procedure I was able to return back to normal activities I even finished my high school football career & I played semi Pro football also. As of lately I’m having numbness in my hands, feet, arms, also tingling. Also motor function issues with grip, weakness in holding up arms also. At the age of 35 it’s hard to work as a IT support Analyst what should I do I thought it was carpul syndrome

What's the name of this series?

Thank you for the wonderful presentation, doc! I'm a 52 year old male and have had seizures since I was 13 after a head injury. Luckily I don't have them while I'm fully awake, they always strike when I'm in the twilight phase of light sleep. The weird thing is I am fully aware I'm having a seizure and can hear what's going on around me, such as the TV. I hope that one day I'll be a candidate for a surgical procedure if they can determine where my seizures are coming from. Although it's not yet FDA approved for Epilepsy, I would love to hear your thoughts on focused ultrasound for ablation. There's also a company called Neurona Therapeutics that provides stem cells to surgeons who then surgically insert the cells into the seizure site. Apparently the early results have been very promising. Again, thanks for the excellent presentation.
