Another medical ‘clinic’ for the public and professionals. The time commitment required to issue essays of this depth and caliber makes me wonder when you squeeze in a patient or two. Well done, Jake!
Micheal - you’re way too kind. When a specific patient or series of patients health journeys grab hold of me, I feel compelled to dig in and learn more and by writing up my discoveries, I’m a better physician and more satisfied that my next patient will benefit from my grounding. I also have many resources that I can now share with my current and future patients. Thanks for your support!
Wow, just wow. What a gift. Thank you for your service in sharing this nuanced and well researched knowledge so thoroughly and explained so well for non professionals.
Thanks for the wonderful feedback Shai - it means a lot and fuels my fire. Since medical school, I’ve always thrived and learned the most when a patient and then story grab my attention, change how I need to think and use problem solving and investigative skills to start to unravel the
Mystery and move the patient towards health. And change the incorrect paradigms or dogmas I had inadvertently been following.
This means a lot coming from you Tonia. John taught me a lot, made me question the very treatments I was providing and I believe led me to help others in a more systematic 360 degree way.
Thanks for this fantastic information. How do you diagnose primary aldosteronism and what aldosterone renin values are positive for that. Can you treat hyperyension only with spirolactone dosis?
Great read! For a number of folks like John, I’ve found a glass of potassium rich low sodium v8 juice to be as effective as a low sodium diet for reducing hypertension.
Thank you, Doctor! Yes, all of the above. Now monitored daily via Internet for Cardiac Doc study, currently on 3 meds, great numbers. And yes, I was perp walked out of 3 dentist offices and not taken seriously till now. I am 81 and feel wonderful.
