EP41 - Shari’s Update - Common Comorbidities of Metal Allergies - Tarlov Cyst Disease, Lipedema & Other Connective Tissue Diseases.
In this episode, I sit down and bring you up to speed on Shari’s world. I have now had my 48th surgery and in TWO short years have two new chronic diagnoses. Ugh! We are going to talk about how Tarlov Cyst Disease, which you may or may not know about, Lipedema (mainly women) and other connective tissue disorders like Ehlers Danlos Syndrome (EDS/hEDS) and others are very commonly seen with systemic metal hypersensitivities. You’re going to learn about why I’ve slowed down (and that I’m still alive and moving forward!), about my two new diagnoses and what they could mean for you, your family or others you know. VERY excited that we are into our 40th EPISODE and third season!Let’s do this!
In this episode you will learn:
Links between metal allergies and connective tissue disease.
What is genetic Lipedema that affects 11% of women (and some men), and how it might relate to systemic metal hypersensitivity and your overall inflammatory load.
What is Tarlov Cyst Disease, what are the symptoms and treatment? Why this disease is common to those with metal allergies.
Real world example of implanted surgical hardware removal causing a massive and near immediate relief of symptoms.
