The Complex Patient: Why Conventional Medicine Struggles to Diagnose Multiple Symptoms

Описание: When you’re experiencing multiple, overlapping symptoms—like fatigue, bloating, brain fog, and anxiety—it can feel like you’re broken, especially when your lab results come back "normal." The truth is: you're not complicated, you’re human.

In this essential episode of The Natural Doctors, physicians Jennifer Stagg and Katie DiNello dive deep into why the conventional medical model often fails patients with chronic, multi-system complaints.

What We Cover in This Episode:

-Complex, Not Broken: Why it's normal to have multiple, overlapping symptoms that don't fit neatly into a single diagnosis.

-The Systemic Struggle: The limitations of conventional medicine's organization—siloed into organs, specialties, and single diagnoses—which is great for acute illness but misses the subtle dysfunctions of chronic conditions (like early autoimmunity or cortisol imbalances).

-The Connected Body: Unlearn the old model and discover how your nervous system, digestive health, hormones, and immune system talk to each other constantly. An issue in one area, like stress, affects all the others.

-The Confusion of "Normal" Tests: Learn why general lab work can be misleading. We break down which subtle markers to look for that can reveal important patterns even when your PCP says everything is fine.

A New Approach: Shift your perspective from treating isolated complaints to understanding the deeper patterns that connect your symptoms—the first step toward a true diagnosis and healing.

If you’ve ever felt dismissed or confused by your doctor, this episode offers the validation and clarity you need.
