🎯!! US "healthcare" system is, by & large, for-profit, aka: $$$$ is 1st priority, if not the only priority in our country. There's no profit in finding cures, no profit in getting immediate answers for patients. And there are way too many doctors that don't want to change this system. Money is more important to them. 😢 Only developed country in the world where even with ACA, about 500K Americans have to file medical bankruptcy, each year.

Here in the U.S., a person would still wait 10 hours, the doctor would ask questions, halfway pay attention to the patient's replies, run a few tests on things that are not the problem, tell the patient their cholesterol and blood pressure are fine, suggest the patient is depressed, write them a prescription for an antidepressant, discharge them, and tell them to follow up with their PCP. The PCP, of course, would run the same tests and declare nothing is wrong. Two months later, the patient would get an $6,000 bill for the ER visit. That amount would be after insurance already paid them $4,000. Meanwhile, the patient turns to KZread, Reddit, blogs, and podcasts, in hopes of trying to figure out the issue on their own.

Always some derp American trying to portray America as worse. The average ER wait time is 2 hours and 25 minutes. I've been to an ER many times and have never had to wait even that long. Americans who have been conditioned to blindly derp about the U.S. are intellectually lazy.

My great grandmother immigrated to US from Germany by early 1900’s. She worked as a nurse in NYC caring for TB patients isolated in a quarantined center. She met her husband (a patient) at the center who recovered. She then opened up her own convalescence home in her house after she married. Her granddaughter, my mother, had TB in her ‘40’s. We were all tested periodically. This video could explain so many mystery illnesses that run in our family similar to your case study. Thanks for sharing this video, it’s been very informative.

Unfortunately one can't always change providers! Sometimes there is only one doctor in a medical plan that in a certain specialty. Also, one may have access to more than one medical plan, but use the one they are using do to the other one having co pays thar are too high. There are many different scenarios out there! In the past year I've had a number of issues with medications including a doctor who seems to think that every newer medication that is automatically better for everyone than the older one(s). I already knew this isn't necessarily the case. I said ok. Whenever I pick up a new medication, I ALWAYS consult with a pharmacist! In this case, I was overjoyed that I did. Something he said rose a red flag for me. After asking a few questions, I was almost sure I shouldn't pick up the new med. I asked the pharmacist if he thought I should take it. He said he couldn't tell me what to do. ( actually I shared this story with a number of people, some whom got a ticked at this answer. Actually, it was the answer. If I had taken the medication and had a reaction he'd have a problem with his superiors. I asked if I could rephrase the question. Would you take this medication if you were me.,He gave a slight no nod. I thanked him . In my opinion, this isn't the worst part of it. I went back to the doctors office. When I told her what transpired. During the office visit, she had mentioned three other drug possibilities. I asked if she could prescribe one of the other meds. I was shocked when she absolutely refused. She won't give an explanation! She stormed off. Over the last year, I've become very leary of any doctor who 1) who says any medication and/ or medical procedure is totally safe. ( I've heard this quite a few times. If I were physically able, I'd run out of the exam room so fast , it would make the world's faster runner look like a slow poke! 2 a) I've had a doctor tell me I'm still in physical therapy, when my last appointment was > 4 months before. I told him that was news to me! He looked shocked! I won't go into the whole conversation. I told him there was something wrong in my records that needed to be changed or he needed to reread them. He didn't comment further after thst. ( this is strike one) 2b) (or not 2 b). Were with the same doctor here. He asked if I'd be willing willing to do exercises at home. I said something to the effect of ok. It's no big deal to add a few more exercises I asked him if he could give me a print out of the exercises. He said it wasn't necessary, he'd send it to my email. I said in case something happens with my email, I'd like to have a printout. I told him no other doctor has had a problem with this also they also off it . He refused ! ( strike 2). I asked if he could at least tell me what the names of the exercises. He refused . ( strike 3). I said to him I have other medical issues other than the one you are treating me for. There are certain exercises I can't do, so I'd like ti know what the exercises are so if there are any I can't do they can be modified or I'd have to wait until some future time to do the exercise. ( notice I was not refusing to do exercises. I even gave a possible solution) He asked me like what. I said for one , I have arthritis in both my knees, so I can't do any exercises which I have to be on my knees, because it's too painful. He finally gave me the name of one. I said it sounds like one I'm already doing. The exercises are on Medibridge, if you'll give me a few moments , I'll bring them up. That's not necessary ( Medibridge is a company with an online platform that doctors put in physical therapy exercises for their patients All providers can put in exercises. There is an image that you can do the exercises with, there is also an area where you can go where you can get verbal & / or visual directions on how to perform the exercises correctly. ( I love this. I hate gyms.) He again said it's not necessary. ( how many strikes does this doctors have against him?) I have now exhausted every way I have to be able to see the exercises . We go on to other things. He reminds me to check my email & make my next appointment. As I'm walking to the bus, and my notification bell goes off. I looked to find out that one exercise I'd have to get on my hands & knees to do ( like I want to case myself more pain), one I was doing a more advanced version of, and the other one I'm still doing. I called the office , talked to a receptionist. She said she'd pass the message on. I decided I have enough other exercises to do, that after my 3rd call with no response, I'd wait until my next visit. I knew I'd have a different doctor. 3) Three doctors couldn't find the results of an EMG I had. That is neither the imaging or anything written. How can this be? They all wanted me to take it again. I said no because I had a reaction to it. One doctor even asked me how I can say that I had a reaction when I never had the test? ( luckily, I am pretty level headed, or I O would have punched his lights out!) . The next doctor I saw was one I have been seeing for many years. I told her what had happened with the other 3 Dr's. At least she believed me!, Initially, she couldn't find anything either.She researched it again after my exam. Even though she didn't find any imaging, or notes on my pain , she found two sentences basically saying the test was negative . I had told all the doctors that because the doctor who did the test had told me. Now at least I had vindication thst I had the test! I'll never know what what happened to the imaging or why there are no notes to the pain I had. Which lasted for almost two days after the EMG I'll stop here Maybe it would be nice. If there was one doctor who could oversee everything, in stead of different doctors that all do their own thing and for the most part only seem to pay attention to medical records from the last time I visited , but don't pay attention to anything that happens during the 3 months between my return visits.

Fantastic video, as usual. The only thing more infectious than TB is Siobhan’s incredibly upbeat, positive, happy demeanor.

The hospital I worked at here in the USA didn’t isolate patients until a disease was confirmed, instead of isolating until it was ruled out. So unfortunately I was exposed to active TB patients on several occasions. It’s kind of frustrating after caring for a patient for 3 days then you get orders to put them in an isolation negative pressure room 😳 Then the hospital, as gracious and concerned for staff as they are, told us if we get sick they would test us for no charge 🙄 I’m amazed more people don’t have TB but surprisingly there are more cases than one realizes !

TB is usually killed by sunlight or UV lights. The TB ward that I worked at just used UV fluorescent lights. The reason why we have such a serious problem with TB is that so many people quit taking their antibiotics as soon as they feel better and then the bacteria becomes resistant to the antibiotics. New antibiotics need to be created and tested. 😢

@@PeaceNinja007 Ha sure. Pathologists are the MDs who diagnose tissues that come out of the human body. Anything from skin biopsies for infectious/inflammatory conditions all the way up to complicated multi-organ resections for advanced cancers. Those specimens are prepped in a bunch of special ways and put on microscope slides as super thin (around 4 microns) sections for us to diagnose. It gets really complicated from there using tons of different stains and special antibody markers to figure out what's going on or what type of cancer the person has (and there are hundreds and hundreds of different types...), but that's the gist of it. In the case of cancer, we also tell the surgeons whether the edges of the tissue (the margins) are negative for cancer cells or if they need to go back and take more tissue out. Some pathologists also perform autopsies and/or help run all of the other parts of the lab (transfusion medicine, microbiology lab, etc.).

@@PeaceNinja007 A pathologist studies fluids, tissues, or organs taken from the body. Pathologists often work with a surgically removed sample of diseased tissue, called a biopsy. The pathological examination of an entire body after death is called an autopsy. Pathologists are often involved in the diagnosis of illness. So any samples taken from the body whether it’s blood. And an x-ray tissue fluid from the knee these are all examined by a pathologist and then related to historical disease pathologies. This pathologist then identifies and relates to a diagnosis.

Hi. In the late 80s, a lady I worked with in the hospital laundry was diagnosed with TB just before she retired. She continued working with us. She’d have some coughing fits but she also had asthma fairly bad. Believe me, the dust from the lint in there was unreal. We’d look up at the fluorescent lights hanging 20 ft above us, there was giant balls of lint hanging from the lights shades. Some of it was green from all the OR linens including the hospital greens Drs wore. She said she wasn’t told she was contagious and her GP didn’t give her a letter for work to stay away.

My aunt got TB in the late 1940's. Her husband left her with four kids and ran, so my uncle stepped in to help at 19 (she was on his paper route), falling madly in love with her. She ended up divorcing her husband who left her, marrying my uncle, and thus being excommunicated from the Catholic Church (officially, but the church and the congregation knew who really should have been booted, and were quite vocal about it). My uncle absolutely adored my aunt and did everything he could for her and her kids. It went into latent TB, and stayed there for decades. When I was a young girl in the early 90's, she ended up getting lung cancer from the scarring (there are some really interesting studies about that), her TB came back due to her weakened immune system, eating some of her bones, and she didn't make it. It devastated all of us. As soon as you said whatever this was, it was eating away bone, she's instantly who I thought of. I'm so glad he's on the mend and living his best life.

For anyone dreading arthrocentesis (drawing fluid from the knee with a syringe), I had the mirror-op: two series of three-week sessions of injections into my knees (a total of 6 injections in each knee). This treatment, using injections of hyaluronic acid to cause the knee to grow new, joint-protecting cartilage, can delay, or even remove, the need for knee replacements. The medical assistant who did the injections used ultrasound to locate the openings between my leg-bones, allowing her to place the needle precisely within the void between them, and avoiding any pain whatsoever. The only (quite minor) discomfort came from the change in fluid pressure within the knee capsule, but it fades quickly. Oh, and the sequence was a complete success, restoring my knees to their condition when I was much younger, removing all pain associated with thinning or damaged cartilage. (Hyaluronic acid occurs naturally within the joints, in high amounts, up until you're around 20 yrs old; then, it declines with age. So, increasing it can restore your joints to a more youthful condition.)

Firstly thank you for your very informative videos. I grew up in the 1940s and 50s. We still had TB sanatoria. The treatment then was rest, fresh air, and ............ sunshine. Not sunbake or sunburn, but a daily sunbath, which was considered essential. I remember visiting a polio ward where sufferers were wheeled out for their daily sunbath.

Many years ago, I saw a picture of an Umbrella Cockatoo (Cacatua alba) that had TB--in its neck! Bird's neck was about 4x normal. Poor bird had to be put down.

​@@Cricket2731, Birds can get avian tuberculosis, infected by mycobacterium Avium.

This is an excellent presentation which is even more pertinent in the post-COVID syndrome era where SARS-CoV-2 can temporarily stun the immune system leading to initial infection or reactivation of latent infections.

Hello doc! I’m about to start my training in Internal medicine in my home country and I’m contemplating on pursuing rheumatology as a specialty. It would be great if you could post an in-depth video about rheumatology as a field so that aspiring ‘Rheums’ like me can have a better insight into the field- esp about the variety of cases, how common rheumatic diseases are in general, what personality type does the field attract etc. Loved the above video and looking forward to many more amazing ones!

Great Work. Continue to do the same with new cases of medical mysteries.

Absolutely brilliant ❤

So nice presentation 👏..Iam so interested in these videos and waiting for them 😊❤

Thank you for the video -- fascinating!

Great video thanks for sharing

RN here, thanks for the through explanations you do related to medical mysteries.

You inspired me to become a rheumatologist, i am starting my residency of internal medicine & rheumatology this yr

that is really interesting! I just love your videos. Keep them coming! Well, if you need a knee replacement, I have friends you've had one and they say it's not bad. I'm glad you found out what was wrong and I'm sure he is too.

Sanotarium is for safeness 😊

you are good at this. well done.

Clear explanation , fascinating and interesting case as always! I wish you could create a Spotify podcast; it is relaxing listening to these cases, and educative.

This was such an interesting one! Tuberculosis eating a knee? Who would have ever guessed it would do that? Thank you for another great video.

Great video! My guess was for Autoimmune. I got it wrong. Fascinating case. I absolutely love your videos. Your videos make me want to be a doctor.

I love your medical mysteries. Please keep making more when you have the time. You're an outstanding doctor and teacher. Can you do any videos on viruses from solid organ transplants such as BK and CMV? I received a kidney last year and I keep getting these two virus. I go on the antivirals and they get two neg tests then they come back. Plus, ever since I got this kidney I've been low energy and weaker then before I started dialysis adn my kidneys failed.

Excellent! U helped me with my knee issue
