did you know that HOW and WHEN you feel tired might tell you WHY you are tired?

there are many patterns to fatigue that we look at. Timing, exertion and other patterns can help point to issues in cortisol, thyroid, inflammation or CVD.

Replying to . Lyme disease is complicated

my approach is to work on getting your immune system to be ok with having the Borrelia there, or to calm it down enough to reduce symptoms. there are many approaches though to Lyme I'm happy to answer any specific questions people have

Replying to spondyloarthropathies like ankylosing spondylitis (AS), Psoeiatic arthritis (PsA), reactive arthritis and enteropathic arthritis do not often have elevations in inflammatory markers. this includes ANA, ESR, CRP, RF... etc.

if you have positive symptoms and imaging to match, you can make that diagnosis. if your doctor is saying you need these labs to diagnose them, find another doctor, or just tell them they are wrong. I'll send you the ACR Criteria to show them.

we need to bring humanity back into medicine. we are all tired as physicians. yes we see more patients than we have time for. but making fun of them or treating them poorly does not make good medicine
