One thing that I found particularly heartening to see at this week's Mayo Clinic conference was a common thread among almost all presentations: patient communication.

Numerous mentions were made at the end of each lecture about the clinical importance of listening, validating, and using reassuring language.

Patient-centered care – putting patients' concerns first and making time to listen to their stories – improves outcomes. The evidence is growing, and more providers are taking notice.

I can think of a few patients who need to do this. 😬👌🏼

What have you taught your body to adapt to?

When pain goes away with time and without any overt effort on your part, your body is just learning how to manage with imperfect situations.

Adaptation is a great survival strategy but in the case of pain-triggering situations, when your body adapts it just masks the real problem until a point when adaptation is no longer possible.

…Enter the appearance of surprise pain often in mid-life from what we think are just everyday activities.

Yes, you are getting older and your body is less willing to put up with sh #*t, but pain doesn’t have to be inevitable.

Uh oh. It's Quitter's Day! Statistically, the second Friday of January is when most people abandon their NY resolutions. A lot of pain that ends up in my office happens when patients start and stop and then restart exercise. IMO, do what you can to just keep going.

I love how one of my patients today described her recent episode of debilitating back pain as
"an information explosion"

Bottled water contains millions of small particles, thousands of which are nanoplastics so tiny they can invade the body’s cells, a new study finds.

In the world of physical medicine there is a lot of focus on asymmetry.

Practitioners - myself included - like to point out structural differences from side to side. Even someone without training can often easily see and feel things that don't feel the same side to side. But the fact is that the human body is inherently crooked.

Consider your internal organs: The contents of our chest and abdomen are not mirror images from left to right. We have a heart on one side and a lung with an extra lobe on the other, and then there's a liver on just one side as well.

How can we expect our skeletal encasing to look and function perfectly symmetrically when the contents (of uneven shape and density) are unevenly distributed?

That said, when you strive for equal FUNCTION like balance, strength and agility on each side of your body or in a variety of situations, that IS a worthwhile focus. 🤓

As of yet, there are no interventional studies about the link between blood glucose and panic or anxiety, but several articles have noted correlation between hypoglycemia and panic attacks. There are likely many more epigenetic and environmental factors at play but this is an experience several patients have presented with over the years.

Any parents with kids who have behavioral issues that cleared up with dietary elimination of added sugars and limiting carbs, understand that blood glucose plays a role with mood. What pushes things over the edge to panic is biologically very individual but the correlation is undeniable for those who have experienced it.

What's your relationship with sugar?
