Too many “ologists”? That’s only one sign your case is being lost in the medical system. You could have a multiple imbalances that are being ignored because no one “cross talking” or considering you as a WHOLE person.
The tradition in medicine has been to identify diagnoses in isolation and provide prescriptions or treatments for each rather than tie these together as part of a system. Take a gut-brain imbalance, for example. Tons of patients suffer with anxiety, and are treated by one -ologist, and also have gastric distress, and are treated by another. What if these two ailments were given consideration TOGETHER?
Has your internist, neurologist, or psychiatrist ever discussed your gut health in relation to brain health and having anxiety? Would they even know what to ask? All the specialists, or what I call “-ologists”, look at your case through the lens of separate departments. If you are having neurological issues they only scan and treat the brain, not the lung barrier or gut. And they won’t look at the other important systems of the body that hugely impact the brain and mental health, including the gut (inflammation) and even hormonal balance.
