Why ME/CFS is Ignored and Neglected by the Medical System - Dr. Katie Brown, MD #cfsrecovery

That invisible "line" between the psychological and the physical is the Nervous System.

What i learned from this interview: prioritize rest, reduce stress, and realize your nervous system became dysregulated for a reason , so find what those reasons were and make necessary changes ..best interview ive seen on the subject and good to know there is a doctor out there who can help others who has been through the trenches herself!

This is just fantastic. And a real game-changer for the many lucky enough to find their way to Dr Brown who knows CFS painfully inside and out (I wouldn't wish it on anyone but it makes a HUGE difference when a medical professional knows the conditon personally) Love the description re: the ANS does not distinguish between physical or psychological stress/trauma triggers, it simply becomes profoundly dysregulated regardless. Thank you both for this fantastic interview (ps: I've just completed ANS Rewire and it has made a BIG difference to my journey)

Dr. Katie is more than a doctor. She’s a beautiful Earth Angel and pure soul. What a wonderful blessing!

I love the reminder to go slow and steady, baby steps, to recover. So great to have medical professionals who understand this condition and from personal experience, very hopeful!

Really great interview, I hope you will have her back in 6 months or a year's time when her knowledge is even greater.

Dear Realan, thank you very much for your great work! "Unfortunately" I only came across your site after three years of Long Covid. Funnily enough, I tried nicotine patches and your name was mentioned in the group there. I read your book and came across your site at the beginning of January 2024 and was finally able to start my recovery. I'm from Germany and speak English. I have a few friends and relatives who would benefit greatly from your and other English language sites. Unfortunately, the language barrier is too high for them and healing through mind-body-work has not yet arrived in Germany.

Dr Brown has confirmed so many of the conclusions I've come to myself about the fatigue element of my Long Covid. It's always reassuring to hear a medical professional who has come to the same conclusions as myself. She explains it all so well, too, especially in addressing that confusion I've seen so many have in believing that doing any psychology work to recover implies that the condition is entirely psychological. Definitely a video I will be sharing when it becomes available for general viewing on your channel.

Really enjoyed this interview. The link I learned from listening to an American Dr talking about long Covid and nicotine wasn’t to do with the stimuli the nicotine can induce but more the link from what caused the Covid virus and using nicotine to suppress this. It isn’t something that is widely known about , at least here in Oz ,but from I learnt studies have been done in England on the success of this treatment . Wishing you all the best Katie and thanks Raelan for addressing my question, much appreciated 🥰

21:45 From my understanding about the nic patches, for Covid, they don’t mask symptoms, because you don’t use them for very long. You only use them for 1-2 weeks, and in that time, they neutralize the spike proteins and are no longer needed. ❤

Wonderful interview. So glad to hear the medical field is slowly waking up. And kudos to Dr. Brown for her arduous work and commitment to help others. Thank you for answering my question both Dr. Brown and Raelan. ❤

This is a great interview, what a blessing there are doctors like you! ❤

This was very helpful. Thank you so much Dr. Katie! And Raelan! I'm still still on my recovery journey. Keeping the hope!!

Thank you. I’m loving the doctor interviews 🙏

I live in KY and am definitely emailing Dr. Brown! This is amazing!

One thing a lot of these stories have in common is that they learn to stop crashing or getting PEM as much. Perhaps just avoiding PEM for a long time is what gives us our life back. I’m going to try and test this myself by goijg one year straight without any PEM and see if it cures me

Thank you! So inspiring❤️

One of the best interviews ❤️🙏🏼

Great interview! Dr Brown answered those questions so well and seemed lovely. What a fantastic service to be able to offer to visit!

Absolutely nailed the TMS / CFS question.
