This video is how I found out about PCS and I am SO RELIEVED! I spoke with my doctor and after asking me a few questions about my chest pain he is confident in saying that PCS is most likely the cause. If I feel other areas like neck or my arm being affected as well I need a check-up, though. Again, I am SO relieved! Thanks for mentioning this in your vid, I was worried but forgot to talk about it when visiting my doctor.

[@HeyV63]

I LOVED your reaction to the cayenne pepper lady. I'm right there with you it makes my blood boil to no end to see people spread their stupidity like wildfire.

[@nxcrorat]

Exactly! And another thing that pisses me off is that there's no balance in these kinds of opinion Like, if you have a mild migraine and apply peppermint oil, since it's a really pungent herb, that will stimulate blood flow and help a little Does it make it a blood thinner that can save you from life-threatening conditions? Absolutely not, take your meds Like arnica gel for sore muscles, it's natural and it works but if you're experiencing calcification then you're gonna need much more than that😭 I wish there were more balance simply to avoid becoming collectively immune to most antibiotics and such, my mother's a nurse and she raised me like that Edit: Mike is also suggesting natural things at 6:01 so that makes me feel happier about my comment XD

[@LeviAckerman096]

What makes it even worse, is that some people might genuinely believe that "information" and people could die a very preventable death because of it. It makes me sick, these people don't even think about what kind of harm they're causing.

Specifically responding to the left side under breast pain - I grew up in a hispanic household and my mom always told me that was caused by some trapped gas (basically I needed to burp or fart) - long story short I had pain similar to that for about 4 days and couldn't take a deep breath because of the pain. Urgent care said it was a muscle related issue and gave me muscle relaxers. A couple of hours later the pain was so intense that I went to the emergency room because I knew something else was wrong. After a contrast they found I had a pulmonary embolism (blood clot in my lung) and deduced that it was caused by the hormones in my birth control. Moral of the story is, trust your gut and advocate for yourself.

I caught dysentery in South America once & totally see how people die from it. After 2 days I thought it was a definite possibility I could die. When I went to the hospital and they started me on a drip I could feel the life force coming back into me (despite still feeling like death). After a day the dehydration has a huge impact on you and there is nothing you can do to fix it bc when you drink it either triggers your body to throw it back up or you immediately run to the toilet because of diarrhea. You have about 10 seconds to get to a toilet when you feel diarrhea coming on. It’s that bad. Your guts gurgle like a waterfall and it’s so watery you can’t hold it in. Even thinking about it now is making me shudder. Edit: I caught c-diff from having to take antibiotics for a long stretch bc I was a carrier for strep. As bad as c-diff is I still had about a minute to make it to the toilet when I felt diarrhea coming on. The dysentery diarrhea was worse. The difference was dysentery weakens & your body fights it off (hopefully before dehydration kills you) while c-diff only gets worse and will kill you. I had to take 2 courses of phlagyl twice and it came back within a day then took vancomycin which thankfully cured it bc this was before they had the fecal transplant treatment. If it hadn’t worked I would’ve been in big trouble and probably died.

The funny thing is that Dr. John Gray 10:50 that is speaking about using coconut oil extract for Alzheimer’s is a relationship counselor, not a doctor of medicine 😂😂 Keep posting the informative videos Doctor Mike!❤️🤩

[@luxeayt6694]

The funny thing is MCT oil has actually been tested on alzheimer's patients and they got an instant improvement in cognitive function. So it does work and there are studies to back it up.

[@rainestar82]

I mean same thing for Dr Oz. He's a cardiothoracic surgeon, not a psychologist, but constantly talks about mental health/illness as if he's trained in it. People hear "doctor" and just assume theyre all knowing--I seriously appreciate Dr Mike for speaking on what he knows and making it clear when its not an area he has knowledge on. Knowledge and empathy over his ego!

Thanks for addressing the coconut oil myth (and other food & nutrition-related myths). Would love to see you team up with a registered dietitian for a video series busting nutrition myths! (They are endless!)

That's a good idea. Some work because, y'know, science. But some are baseless & worse, EXTREMELY TOXIC.

[@burnkingssn7659]

I like Dr. Mike's medical takes and I think his nutritional takes should be more informative like how there are good transfats and bad transfats. Good transfats are full of healthy cholesterol, buterate, fat soluble vitamins D, A, K, E, and other beneficial compounds. Comparing coconut oil, MCTs, grass fed red meat fat, butters, and milk fats to corn fed animal transfats, especially chicken and pork, is like comparing the health benefits of the carbs or sugars in common sugar vs carrots.

[@wherearetheblanketshans8501]

what I didn't understand about that, is that the man said "there's ketones in coconut oil". But you can find ketones in the blood of someone with diabetes, so that point was crappy

I used to think IVs were a waste of money. Then I got pretty bad food poisoning that caused severe diarrhea and made me throw up anything that went into my mouth, including water. After one night of being deprived of liquids, I felt I could die. Severe muscle aches, headache, just pain everywhere and confusion/dizziness. 30min hooked up to an IV and I was back to normal.

I once looked up the ingredients of my favourite flavoured water here in Italy. It's a lemon flavoured water just like a standard lemonade. And one of the ingredients was asorbic acid. Dumb me thought it was some kind of preservatives or weird chemical. And when I looked it up it came up with vitamin C. Which made me laugh uncontrollably at my stupidity. Sometimes things sound worse than they are.

[@Anopano3000]

I remember my mum told me all e-numbers are bad. Turns out, baking soda is e-500, so what she said doesn't hold water!

[@bobd2659]

"Dumb" you was also right! In addition to being Vitamin C, it's also used a food preservative! Though citric acid, also natural, is usually used more since it does the same thing, is generally cheaper to produce/extract, and has a more tart/sour taste - what you want for lemon water!

[@CasuallyCold]

[@rishabharya3329]

● Pressure = FORCE/AREA • Pressure is inversely proportional to AREA • So if same force is applied by someone with small hands it will hurt more than the one having big hand ✋️ 😶

[@La_aJ]

​@@rishabharya3329 Well, if the guy in the video slaps someone, the person might not feel much pain on the cheek, but they’ll most definitely feel a lot of pain in the other side of their body because of being slammed against the ground- 😃

I've learned a few good things from Docter Mike If someone is unconscious call for help check pulse check breathing CHEST COMPRESSIONS if you break a rib its fine, atleast they are alive

[@Murrrrrrp]

Ok, I’m late to the party, but I love when Dr. Mike is this passionate 😂

[@PedroBenolielBonito]

Wow. Mike is legit intense at certain points in this video. You can tell he's legitimately angry, and not just mugging/overreacting for the camera. The most noticeable one is at around 4:40: 'you have to be careful what you do with...*pause, runs hand through non-existent beard, visibly collects himself* ...statistics!'

[@lillybarnett4027]

Uhh he has a very beautiful and very much existent beard thank you very much. It's just trimmed nicely:)

[@alyssag3301]

The sauna one reminded me of a neighbor we have, her husband used a hot tub for multiple hours every day for several weeks. However, all of the steam for such a long period completely burned his throat and lungs (I believe, I'm not 100% sure) but this caused him to go into a coma and almost didn't make it, it took months of rehabilitation and he still isn't the same. Crazy what people try to say works and doesn't work!

[@grapevinetalons]

I love hearing Doctor Mike disagree and yell and he always teaches us something new.

[@campbellhansen7533]

10:51 to be fair; proper rope elasticity can actually slow your decent pretty well, while giving a nice spring back up. Also, that vid looked like a harness across the torso and between the legs, so there probably wasn’t as much a neck movement as others.

The last one could also be the beginning of an epileptic seizure. At least mine felt somewhat similar, especially if it's just an aura. The more you try to focus the worse it gets.

[@msguineapigsrus]

When that clip went viral at the time, my guess was either an epileptic seizure or a migraine. Migraines can look scarily similar to seizures and there’s connections in how they originate, though that’s not fully understood. Many migraine prevention meds are actually anti-convulsants also used to treat epilepsy.

Concerning precordial catch syndrome, I used to get this ALL THE TIME! Even now nearing middle age I still get it at least a few times a year. I'd get about a third of a breath and get hit by a stabbing pain and be unable to breathe in further. For me I found the best way to deal with it was to force the issue and breath in hard. I'd hit the 1/3rd mark and then as I passed it I would feel this intense pain(9-9.5 out of 10) and then a pop or snap and suddenly the pain would be gone. It was that or shallow breath for hours. I used to have to do this every other week in my 20's and even monthly in my 30's.

[@VictoriaRoseIsNotDeadYet]

I never knew there was a name for it until now! I’m glad I’m not dying haha

[@KonekoNaru]

I couldn’t do that, my go-to method has always been shallow breaths and trying to slowly but surely increase the depth. But being real careful and if the pain gets too strong I’d start over basically, how do you force yourself? My body wouldn’t even let me.. 😩

[@rialitychek]

Im in my early 30s and get it occasionally, maybe once every couple of months or something? So glad to know what it is now

[@Nemockzans]

The effect behind the eating an orange in the shower is all about getting in touch with your primal side and dropping inhibitions (just because you can eat it in the shower without care about spilling the juices everywhere) I have done it myself and it is fun. I think doing things that are fun and not unhealthy is good against anxiety and depression so I would say it helps as much as anything else that is fun and gets yout to experience your body i a positive way

[@_bhoomika_katragadda_]

idk about the prick to bleed thing but allopathic medicine docs in my country do suggest to gargle with luke warn salt water , and it actually helps. it burns first , your throat feels weird and then you have a really bad cough for a while with alot of mucus and you'll be fine in 2-3 days

In 11:58 he said gallbladder because in some martial arts, like Kyusho Jitsu, they use the organs to name some strains of nerves on other parts of the body. By counting they named these vital points. For that reason there is as an example "Liver 9" around the knee. The movement of the leg or arm during the TLoc can be a myoclonus, which weren't very unusual during a syncope. So this hasn't to be acting.
