  • It is my great privilege to interview Dr. David Clarke, MD, a board-certified gastroenterologist and internal medicine physician with decades of experience working with people with medically unexplained symptoms of what Dr. Clarke calls "stress illness." In this interview, Dr. Clarke shares some of his experiences with people with dizziness and vertigo, and we also discuss why gastrointestinal symptoms are so common in people with stress illness.
    Dr. Clarke's book, They Can't Find Anything Wrong! is available for purchase on Amazon www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/159181... or at your favorite bookseller. You can find out more about Dr. Clarke on his website, stressillness.com
    00:00:00 Intro
    00:03:32 How Dr. Clarke started working with patients with stress related illnesses
    00:07:35 Patient story of someone with extreme episodes of vertigo
    00:10:16 patients with stress illness or psychophysiologic disorders tend to have more than one symptom at a time
    00:11:20 how many symptoms you have or how long you have had them DOES NOT determine how quickly you can recover
    00:13:37 the diagnostic label someone gets does not determine recovery; most people with these symptoms have NO psychiatric disorder
    00:15:31 Symptoms can occur a very long time after stress or trauma
    00:24:09 how low self esteem is a common denominator that leads to symptoms; personality traits of people with these issues
    00:29:30 one big clue about your stress: what was going on in your life when the symptoms started
    00:30:42 Dr. Clarke saw many people with symptoms of vestibular dysfunction
    00:33:00 these disorders are extremely common
    00:34:29 Randomized controlled trials are now showing that these methods work better than conventional approaches (CBT, etc.)
    00:37:20 Patients with these disorders often don’t look particularly stressed out
    00:41:49 Medically unexplained vestibular disorders should be investigated as a psychophysiological disorder
    00:43:42 Tinnitus is another common psychophysiologic disorder
    00:44:24 The gastrointestinal symptoms and diagnoses that can be stress illnesses: reflux, abdominal pain, nausea, diarrhea, constipation and more
    00:46:14 the most common diagnoses are irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) and reflux that doesn’t improve with medication
    00:48:44 How stress manifests as a gastrointestinal problem
    00:51:27 The treatment is the same as the treatment for neural circuit dizziness
    00:52:40 there are many similarities between dizziness and gastro symptoms that have a neural circuit origin
    00:55:17 There is no substitute for actually LISTENING to a patient and asking about his or her life
    00:57:05 Many people don’t realize or acknowledge how difficult their childhoods were
    00:59:20 One of the most important questions Dr. Clarke would ask his patients
    01:01:01 why so many people end up with gastro symptoms from stress
    01:02:52 Why many times “food sensitivities” are not from food at all
    01:04:18 Dr. Clarke believes this same process may apply to “triggers” for migraines
    01:05:54 Look for current stress, childhood stress, undiagnosed PTSD, anxiety and depression
    01:08:00 Other resources and hope!

    This interview has been SO meaningful for me! The clarity, the depth of knowledge and information, the learning, everything resonated. Thank you both for sharing your time and expertise. You are the BEST EVER in the field. Absolutely fascinating. Such a rewarding experience for me. Awesome! Thanks again. I’m 90% there. The dizziness has subsided, the stomach aches are fewer and l am functioning normally after a year of symptoms.

    This explains even more of what I have suspected for over 30 years. I developed what I self diagnosed as IBS while working for a boss that pushed my stress over the limit. And through the years it's been one thing after another til I hit the wall in 2014 and woke up with vertigo. And I know exactly what happened 2 weeks before the vertigo hit. These interviews are so good to hear. I also had my neurologist tell me that I would have to learn to live with the vertigo when I saw him at the start of this in 2014. Fortunately I have stubbornness issues so I fired him. I know our bodies were designed to heal we just have to figure out how to do that. And I am so glad to have found you Dr. Yo.

    Wow, lately you are interviewing the superstars of mind-body field and I thank you for it! Dr. Clarke is such a genuine knowledgeable and kind ( I can really see that in his face :) )person. My symptoms manifest in head (dizziness, migraines) and in stomach (pain, dispepsia, heartburn). The thing about selfcompassion and giving ourselves a credit for all the things we endured resonated especially with me. For a long time I didn't do that and still I don't enough but now, as I know how important that is, I'm working on it. Second, the excersise when we have to imagine ourselves as butterflies on our childhood home wall and watch a child we care about trying to cope is a great one and really changes the perspective. So, thank you Dr. Yonit and Dr. Clarke :)

    Thank you for doing this video, Long time IBS sufferer here. I wondered if there was a connection to the vertigo and chronic dizziness that suddenly came on last year after having worsening bowel symptoms and lots of stress. After finding your channel and doing your course, I am about 85% better with the dizziness but I find I keep getting new symptoms and now its attacking my pelvic floor. Moves around a lot and has caused chronic fatigue. I feel like I'm constantly chasing symptoms around my body. I'm working on the mind/body and trying to release this stress, not easy to do but it always helps to be validated.

    Great interview! MdDS hit me in my 20s but no one had any idea what it was? Then came the panic attacks, severe anxiety, IBS....flash forward and at 55 my nervous system went crazy! Years of stress, abuse, a relationship break down and I'm now battling Fibromyalgia, CFS type symptoms, tinnitus, internal vibrations, tingling, buzzing, chronic pain etc. Again the MdDS, tinnitus and chronic IBS were my first symptoms! Doctors don't have a clue after endless testing? A chronic stress response is the diagnosis but zero treatment ideas other than an antidepressant? An insensitive ER doctor told me to ^go away and just accept all of this!^ Thank God for this lady and her wonderful info ! Thank you so much!

  • @Overlandwanderers
    @Overlandwanderers ปีที่แล้ว

    Wow. Thanks for this. A real light bulb moment for me! It took me a year to discover my dizziness was likely PPPD but I never thought the cough, congestion, indigestion etc could be anxiety related because they are "physical symptoms" and "I'm not stressed". I always thought I was unlucky to have lots of symptoms going on at the same time (pins and needles, abdominal pain, tinnitus etc) because I didn't think they could all be related, but of course if it's psycho-physiological then it makes perfect sense. Thanks and keep up the good work :)

    In 1993 I was still seeing my pediatrician at 21. I had a bizarre constellation of symptoms, they ruled out infection, cancer, and sent me to a psychotherapist with "functional" illness. Best thing , because he was right. I had a trauma the previous year, and still today a good barometer of how life is going is various psychosomatic symptom appearance.

  • @shandymonte
    @shandymonte ปีที่แล้ว +3

    What I’m not exactly clear on is why symptoms are 24.7 for so many of us. There doesn’t seem to be a rhyme of reason for them. The stories he’s telling the symptoms make sense because there’s a specific trigger- someone’s mom, etc. but in the case of 24.7 symptoms there is no clear trigger like that. And often times the symptoms increase with simple things like walking or movement, which is not tied to trauma. Ok, back to the interview!

    • @TheSteadyCoach
      @TheSteadyCoach  ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Yes, we didn't directly address this, but often there are no clear triggers- someone is in 24/7 fight/flight mode. And that is often because of ongoing, persistent life stress.

Nothing buried or hidden. And yet still developed this PPPD and have had a host of other mind/body illnesses that I was able to successfully recover from. I think over time, it just becomes a hypervigilant response in the brain and nervous system in an effort to protect you.

    This has been very inspiring on the one hand. However, I have spent a lifetime uncovering past issues and gradually reprocessing them through various methods. I’m now 69 and just feel frustrated that I have to keep digging to relive myself of bowel and vertigo issues. If I had to diagnose myself, I would say that despite knowing and processing past issues my body is stuck in a pattern of protecting me. I feel I now have to convince my brain that I am safe. My conscious brain knows I am safe it’s just my subconscious brain is stuck despite knowing why it all started in the first place.

      Hi there Krysia, this is an important distinction and thank you for bringing this up. I think there's a difference between "understanding" and "believing" you're safe. Cognitive methods can help us understand that we're safe and no longer in the old situation, but we can't think our way out of not feeling safe. I think somatic methods are much more effective for that- therapies like internal family systems, accelerated experiential dynamic psychotherapy and somatic experiencing come to mind.

    I have exorbitant amounts of stress both past and current, and unfortunately cannot alter my present circumstances. I was however, able to recover from chronic hand, foot, and back pain after two years of disability, applying the psychophysiologic approach brilliantly outlined in this interview. I also have a history of IBS that lasted for a decade years ago and has been alleviated with the same methods...and now the hardest one I've ever grappled with...PPPD. This one, quite frankly, is really challenging and especially frightening..more than the other conditions were. I was wondering if age can lessen one's chances of recovery? ( But that topic seemed to be covered here.. I'm 56, btw...) Seems too, that anxiety is PPPD's best friend. But, Dr.Yo is a light at the end of a seemingly hopeless tunnel, and a massive comfort..an absolute angel on earth for sharing these interviews that provide solid evidence that recovery is entirely possible. Lots of love to you, Dr. Arthur. You deserve every accolade in the world! ❤️

      I hear you on this- PPPD is a doozy. I have worked with quite a few people who suffered with other mindbody symptoms and they felt that dizziness was particularly awful. Absolutely NO bearing on recovery though.

    Great interview and example stories! I was hoping to hear something about SIBO and his perspective on this. I’ve heard elsewhere it’s an incidental finding..meaning there are people who test positive with no symptoms..so makes me lean towards mindbody. Anyways.. overall really helpful and informative!

      The tests for SIBO are often falsely positive. Real SIBO usually only occurs in people with a disease (or a medication) that slows the gut contractions.

    Hey Dr. Yo, I’ve been experiencing pppd symptoms for 4 years and have been working on myself since September of last year. I’ve been trying to better understand myself and I feel like I’m getting no where. I’m showing compassion, learning to calm myself, etc but as the months go by, it seems to get worse. I can’t seem to break this cycle of negative thoughts because of it(I’m thinking about my symptoms from the moment I wake up till I go to sleep). I’m not sure if I’m trying to much, not enough or I’m not pin pointing the specific method to getting better. Is this normal?

    A year ago I got what seemed to be food poisoning. The food poisoning turned into post infectious ibs. A week into it I went to bathroom one day and been dizzy ever since. GI doctor said no GI issue would cause it. I got a colonoscopy and was all good. I got diagnosed with pppd and vm by nuero doctor.

      It is very common for these syndromes to overlap. The more symptoms you have that are seemingly unrelated, the more likely they have one common cause: nervous system in danger mode. I am sorry you’re going through this.

      Very much the same thing. In Sarno's language, dizziness is a TMS equivalent. I think there are some nuances to dizziness (which is why I've devoted an entire channel to it) but the general idea is the same.
