There’s a Jewish saying:” who saves one life, saves the entire world” Thank you for this podcast. Struggle for two years. After gastro/colonoscopy GI specialist said I have no signs of IBD, just gastritis ( H. Pylori negative). Became allergic to almost everything. Cant eat fresh food anymore. Unfortunately not all Gastroenterologists familiar with this problem😏
Fantastic discussion from a very well informed physicians. It's unfortunate that most allopathic 'health plan' doctors in northern California have never heard of LDN. Supplements and herbs, don't even ask...
I’m on LDN & lied to get it saying craving of drinking & using opiates! Taking 3mg daily only for 1 month now! I KNOW it helps but I may need 4.5 mg. COMPOND…
Check compounding pharmacies...meaning pharmacies that take a few mg from one drug and make into a cream like progesterone, testosterone, and in this case Low dose naltrexone. (Naltrexone is used for making alcoholics sick when they drink alcoholic beverages.) Low with low dose...the pharmacy has to take a very low dose (up to 4.5mg) into a capsule. Sometimes insurance covers some of the cost, other times they don't. Some pharmacies will actually help you find drs that prescribe in the area.
How come I haven't heard bile acid malabsorption mentioned for GI issues? I've been diagnosed witi it and I suspect I have Mast Cell Activation Syndrome, dysautonomia of some sort, and Ehlers Danlos syndrome (I found genetic markers COL5A1 and COL5A2). I also suspect I might have histamine intolerance. My identical twin sister has been diagnosed with bile acid malabsorption as well. I would certainly like to see doctors address the unique dietary restrictions that come with bile acid malabsorption, histamine intolerance, and Mast Cell Activation Syndrome. It's been a pain trying to figure out my diet and I haven't been able to get in to see a doctor yet to give me an IgG test.
Dr Anderson yt channel has a bunch of links to the various functional medicine drs in the US as well as international. The list is in the vid descriptiin. Check those professional orgs and see if anyone is in your state/country. If not in your specific area, make contact with someone and ask if they can recommend someone. Drs often move around and so it is sometimes difficult to keep track of them...but usually if they are in a professional org, they might be listed. Some drs who deal with mcas like weinstock, a GI dr, who will not be part of the functional dr professional groups.
Thank you for this interview with Dr. Weinstock. Very informative.
