Израиль
Добавлен 7 дек 2022
Welcome to What's Up Doctor? I am Dr. Michael Cohen, a qualified Family Medicine Specialist. I trained for many years in acute Medicine and Surgery, hold postgraduate examinations in Surgery and Emergency Medicine and was a ship’s surgeon too. My plan is to create videos in which I discuss and question various aspects of Medical ethics, therapies, innovations and research. I want to give you the tools to be able to think critically about health and disease. I will also discuss ways in which you may improve your overall health. Along the way, I will introduce behavioural tools, the roles of nutrition, exercise, supplements, prescription drugs and experimental treatments and I shall try to enlighten different aspects of the evolving medical field. To suggest additional topics, please enter them into the comment section below. Also, be sure to "like" any comments suggesting topics you're interested in. I will shape the content of the channel accordingly. Thank you for your curiosity.
Parenting is not child's play!
Welcome back to What's Up Doctor!!
This video is about burnout from one of the toughest jobs in the world: parenting! Parental burnout is far more common than you may think and its lack of awareness comes from the expectations that society puts on parents.This often leads parents to feeling as though they are "not being a good enough parent".
I hope you enjoyed this video and that it will give you the tools needed to overcome parental burnout and be the best (good enough :-)) parent that you can be.
If you have an idea of something you would like me to cover in-depth, please let me know as I take your requests seriously.

A condition with 100% mortality??
Просмотров 833Год назад
Welcome back to What's Up Doctor!! In this video I discuss the importance of confronting death and accepting it. Humans have always feared death, and they always will. The reasons can vary (losing others, fear of a painful death, making sense to life..) but I firmly believe in the benefits of its awareness, avoiding denial, and hopefully someday also accepting it. I hope you enjoyed this video ...

Hello everyone! Is medicine an exact science? Is science always to be trusted? Is medical research using systematic scientific methods? I strongly believe in the importance of clinical research and progress, however, we should always be questioning the sources, methods and fundings to make sure the information we are getting is as accurate as possible.

Interview with Dr. Campbell - Family Medicine
I saw the title and got so excited. Dr. John is doing LDN! I take it for fibromyalgia/ dysautonomia neuropathic pain. It works quite well for nerve pain but nothing else unfortunately. I still use cannabis for fibromyalgia, migraine, and myofascial pain. The first line is NOT become stressed or deconditioned whenever you can help it! Paiin flare prevention > pain treatment.
Not happy all the time, then why is it that they look happy in all of the social media pictures?
I am seeking info for use of LDN with very bad chemical sensitivities. The filler in the pills I gave been using is microcrystalline cellulose. I looked at research articles o. This filler, and one found lung damage, and one state miniscule amounts of aldehydes...been doing 1.5 mg of LDN but my MD thinks I would not benefit unless I can get up to 4.0 mg.i get increased brain fog, Depression, exhaustion, COPD symptoms above bbaseline symptoms already even at 1.5.mg. Any suggestions or effective natural alternatives for LDN?
I follow Dr Campbel since Covid, but I did not see this episode. This is a great explanation, thank you so much 😊. I came to hear about Naltrexone a couple months ago from other channels, actually from talks addressing Ehlers Danlos syndrome. I finally got a doc to prescribe this to me, and I started beginning of August. I am at 2.3 mg every evening, but at this dose I get sleep problems. Last night I did not sleep again. When I go back to 2 mg, I sleep fine. I tried to up the dose from 2 mg several times, but almost everytime I cannot sleep. So now I will start to take it in the mornings instead. I hope this helps, because almost everything I eat seems to trigger harm to my body, but having such restricted diet also harms my body. And there is no way a Gastroenterologist will help me; I tried so many doctors since 2018, and the Gastroenterologist for about 2 years. They dont take me seriously. I do hope naltrexone will be used to help long covid (post covid and post vax), I am bringing this up with every doctor I talk to, maybe someone will have interest.
Our family got on large doses of vitamin D3/K2 at the start of the pandemic. 10,000 IU daily. None of us have ever had Covid. We haven't even had a cold in all this time. BTW, the weekly 50,000 D2 that doctors prescribe may not work. Better to take daily doses.
What time of the day would you recommend taking it? I take it at bedtime for lyme.
I take LDN for Crohn’s. I love the vivid dreams 😊
This is so exciting that the benefits of LDN are getting out. Dr. Campbell will spread this vital information worldwide.

I got long Covid from the vaccine. Brain fog and sleep problems stayed with me after the fatigue left. I was prescribed 1mg for sleep; after a week I went up to 2mg. The side effects were skin issues: red welts in my face and neck: herpes on my nose and incredibly chapped lips. I went off for 3 days and the welts started to disappear but the other symptoms did not. I’m starting the LDN again at .25mg. I do not want to stop taking it all together because I’m concerned that the brain fog will return. Any suggestions? I would be very grateful.
Update?
@@larryc1616 after stopping for 3 days I started up again at .25mg. Brain fog and sleep were still issues. I just tried upping the dodo to .5mg and the red welts on my neck came back. I’m now off for a few days and will go back to .25mg. I’m hoping to get LDN in a smaller dosage so I can go up more slowly. Interestingly, one of my minor autoimmune issues went away so I’m still hopeful!
@lesleepetersen87 I have CFS/ME and I started at .6mg but that gave me insomnia, body pains from hell and up/down fatigue. I will be restarting at .3mg and slowly work my way up, hopefully without side effects. I'm not giving up as there are no other meds for this horrible disease. Good luck to you!
@@larryc1616 thank you! And to you too! I’ve heard it can take up to 6 months sometimes before it works so I’m hanging in there!
What a fabulous and interesting explanation. Thank you so much! I absolutely love channels that explain medical issues in an easily understandable format. I have now subscribed and hit the notification bell so I don't miss an episode. 🙂
I take LDN for severe, painful, inherited restless leg syndrome. It took only 2 weeks to start working and I have never looked back. I have been spreading the word about this drug to anyone who will listen and everyone I have recommended it to with RLS has had the same result as me. It has literally saved my life as I was in a very dark place thinking I would be in this pain forever. Never be able to sit down from about 5.00.p.m or sleep at night.
Works in the short term for pain ...
This drug has serious withdrawal issues
I went off for awhile and didn’t experience any at 3 mg. But everyone is different.
I have very bad wide spread neuropathy literally all over my body from head to toes. It affects my hearing my eyesight I've lost 70lbs I could barely walk at this point. Since after my second shot of the moderna COVID vaccine it's been a down hill. Can this medication help me? Anyone has information?
I thought it blocked endorphins . Isn’t it in the same the same class as narcan ?
If you take 50mg+ it lasts all day, but LDN is individual use about under 4.5mg usually and it blocks for about 4hrs then your body rebounds for 20hrs making more receptors and more endorphins while reducing inflammation, to simplify it.
It’s a mu antagonist . It blocks the opiate from attaching to that receptor.
LDN sounds like Lily the Pink’s medicinal compound that’s efficacious in every case.
I am on LDN, for my primary Progressive multiple sclerosis. For 7 yrs now. I have progressed in the disease, but I felt more energy when I started it! Please, include me in your study, I volunteer! My neurologist doesn't support me in my use of LDN. My primary, naturopath MD, subscribes it to me.😮
Don’t think it’s a game changer. Because it hardly approved my health. did prevent the crashes of post exertional malaise only a little bit. Although I do know of people who have had great success with the same drug. The key is to start low at around 0.5mg and slowly increase up to what you can tolerate over several weeks, but don’t go above 4.5mg per dose
It's working for me
Is better to take at night or in the morning?
At night as endorphins released between 2-4am. Take at 9 or 10pm. If dreams to vivid or you get insomnia, then take every am.
This a very important question. Is the 4.5 dose the same for Long Covid, and Depression the SAME dose?
Thanks for the video very informative. Unfortunately my situation is quite frustrating medicaly i have long covid an outside the box condition but i also have a doctor that refuses outside the box treatment. Knowing a possible helpful solution is sitting in a pil bottle in the pharmacy a block away from my house has caused me a great deal of medical mistrust.
Am same as u.. was pre med, long cov, long Lyme, mold , gut dysbiosis, wasted 2years w 11drs done now.. using long vivid Drs , naturopathic, mostly USA.. 🙏💓
A few doctors prescribe LDN on Internet. I got mine that way through AgelessRx (also called LDNDirect I think). There's another one called LDNDoctor.
After a moment I don't really care what he says. In 4 months of downright reading publications and research, I'm far, far beyond his understanding of long COVID ( - the infinite and beyond - ) so I'm not even losing any time to listen to his approximations. Read the litterature, doc. Do your job. Follow the top world researchers on the matter (dr Akiko Iwasaki, from Yale ; dr David Putrino from Mount Sinai (NY) ; dr Michael Peluso from UCLA ; dr Amy Proal fouder of the consortium for long COVID and ME). Read the litterature on ME, fibromialgia, lake Taohoe and Iraq war syndrome ; on post-acute Ebola and Zika syndromes). My cognitive capacities are debilitated and I'm bedridden. All the while I read probably 1000 times more than you ever will on the subject. So take it seriously. We're not having british tea with biscuits here. People's lives are being ruined.
Instead of complaining, share your knowledge
Hey bud, I’ve had long Covid or post viral syndrome for close to a year now. I’ve poured through the literature too and I’ve been really angry - with my GP, the health system and regulators etc. But these docs are not the enemy, they are trying to help. I met John Campbell last month at a conference on Covid and he is an incredible, principled man who has provided lots of valuable information to people suffering from the virus and the vaccines. I started LDN a few days back and it’s been helping a lot. Keep your head up mate you’ll get through it.
Are you covid vaxxed. Bingo. It’s long mRNA vax. Wake up.
Also works for thyroid disease I'm taking it now for my hoshimotos instead of meds that didn't help me this is my 2nd week it starts at 1.5 to 3 then 4.5 in a 3 week span.❤
Have you seen any reduction in your antibody levels?
My daughter, bedbound by me/cfs for 12 months has tried 1 x 0.1 mg once in the evening and could not sleep for several days. It is terrible because we were so hopeful that this would help her improve. What do you do with your patients in such a case?
Has your daughter been checked through IgeneX labs for Lyme and coinfections?
Have her try taking it in the morning or another time of day rather than evening.
@@gpet711 As sleeplessness lasted for days it will not help taking it in the morning.
I'm very sorry to hear that such a small dose had such an effect on your daughter. I'm not yet bed bound, but heading that way ( housebound and getting progressively worse for ages) and I am thinking of trying LDN. Did you dare to try it again in the morning? If so, how did it go? Did your daughter have any sleep problems before taking LDN?
@@tatianagolitsyn675 She did not sleep from one single Tablet for three days, so taking it in the morning would change nothing. However, there are people that say it helped. Most get rather sleepy - that is why you usually take it in the evening.The Doctor suspects that it is a MCAS (She has Mast cell issues) reaction for my daughter. Looking back it was a chance I would take again. It helps many people. If you try it and feel more energy consider not spending it, but leaving it for your body to heal was a recommendation offered to us by a few people.
So excited that you’re getting this info out there Dr Campbell!!
I take it for my autoimmune condition.
My rheumatologist prescribed me Ldn 4.5 for chronic inflammation for connective tissue disease. It helps with pain and brain fog and no side effects at all.
Absolutely love the improvements I have experienced! 🎉Improved cognitively. Impressive decrease of pain!😊
Nice conversation! Great to see a balanced discussion on this pharmaceutical. It is definitely past time for some large clinical trials to begin. - Jarred Younger
My doctor suggested I start LDN more than 15 years ago when I was diagnosed with RA sjorgens syndrome, painful facet syndrome. I’ve had PRP and prolotherapy for the facet pain which helps for short periods of time. I’ve used LDN on & off for 15 years (2mg) is enough for me. Reason for me going off for periods of time due to nervousness and sleep issues. Which still can occur from time to time. 3 months ago I prayed about going to a rheumatologist and going on an injectable…..(didn’t really want to do that but I needed something to turn my pain around ) I asked my doctor to start prescribing again and started .5, then 1mg now 2 mg. I have been basically facet & fibromyalgia free for 2 & 1/2 months. I’m Thankful and I hope more doctors start prescribing. I agree with Dr Campbell it grieves me that more healthcare providers are not prescribing. Bottomline is many doctors do not have time to research the literature.
I took it years ago, I felt too good, ended up getting the worst migraine, and I remember in the end I just felt silly in the head!❤❤❤😂😂😂
What mg level did you start at and settle at?
Good stuff! So glad you mentioned that these precious oils MUST be refrigerated! I have a fridge for that. You didn't mention the dose that you find of value, so next time I hope you can touch on the blood test numbers and the doses that you reckon will match. Thanks.
Thank you Dr. Campbell & Dr Cohen for covering LDN and being courageous to stand up and speak up against the main stream censorship. Please change the title to include LDN as I've been searching for a while and this just popped up. Ive been suffering from chronic joint pain, fatigue and inflammation since I had covid 3 years ago. This has turned into a spondylitis AxSpa and I finally found a doctor who is willing to try something more than the typical prescription causing so many side effects. I hope LDN helps me. Btw Ive changed my diet to ketovare 6 months now and that has halved my recovery time when I get a flare but not the magic bullet.
Ive ben u-sving this for years now. I had the epstein bar virus and it worked instantli.
Its good but not the cure for long covid. On it a year. Know nany others on it. Helps but not a fix
LDN research trust in the US shares great information too

I take 325 tylenol with 5 ml of opiates I do not know what I would do without It going on 2 years of inflamation from covid
See if your doctor will research ULDN, I compiled that ULDN co-dosing work years ago and starts in single digit micrograms for those also on opiates.
LDN has been a godsend for my Long Covid brain fog/inflammation and insomnia
Me too
@Campbell_teaching that’s very kind of you! Paris, France.
I'm suffering from long covid brain fog/ inflammation, insomnia, Anxiety from last 2 years. It's soo scary and debilitating😢. Should I take this ???
Victoria can you elaborate how bad your insomnia was? I am literally having to take Unisom or some sleep aid every night and often still dont sleep. I am desperate 😢
How much you take
thank you. just sent to my brother in law whos has severe copd
I have had M.E and Fibromyalgia for 23yrs in severe pain with reactive depression due to this. This gives me some hope. I did ask my pain clinic but they do not issue it. I have heard so many good reviews of this from people who have been able to get this on script. Is it a postcode lottery? Can primary care prescribe it? If not, why not?
Have you tried an Integrative Practitioner or functional doctor? They are more familiar with it and could prescribe it to you
I have Hashimoto’s and am about to start treatment with it. It seems to help all autoimmune conditions
If you're in the UK the only compounding pharmacy for LND is in Glasgow (it comes up on google). A private prescription is surprisingly low cost. If it works your GP might agree to a take over the prescription via a shared care agreement. If you're lucky the practice might already be prescribing it off-lable. It's worth asking your GP.
@@nataliebutler can you take it if on an opiate pain relief medication?
@@katinahockney9387 I'd ask the LDN research trust or a prescriber about that.
I started LDN 3mg. I was recently diagnosed with MS also, have Hashimotos
My Mother has been on LDN for over 21 yrs for MS. 4.5mg a day. Wishing you all the best on your journey.
I also have hashimoto’s and have been prescribed it by my integrative practitioner. Functional doctors will also prescribe it
So does it work for tou
My functional MD started me on 4.5 mg at bedtime a month ago to prevent breast cancer reoccurrence. I also have sleep apnea but it hasn’t affected my sleep in any way. One fantastic side benefit is it immediately took away all my chronic back and knee pain for which I praise God!
@Campbell_teaching SC USA
I got covid in March 2020 and had a bad case for 2 1/2 months. Occasionally, during this time I took one of my wife's vicodin and it made a tremendous difference in how bad I felt and also helped to stifle my terrible cough. Just an amateur observation.
@Campbell_teaching Pennsylvania, USA
Are you covid vaxxed? Sure it’s not that?
I could not find where to leave a general comment so forgive me for leaving it here.. I am praying for your nation and the war you are now in. God's speed and may he keep you safe and able to help many of your countrymen.
Hope you and your loved ones are fairing well in face of the violence and war now in Israel. Our thoughts are with you and Israel!
