6 Things to Do if Your Doctor Isn ’ t Listening to You

Liz Helms still remembers the way her doctor looked at her 30 years ago, when she described the severe pain she was experiencing in the area around her jaw. She told him she had limited facial movement and frequent muscle spasms, and that it felt like she was being struck by lightning again and again. She cataloged the ways her life had turned upside down. “But I could see it in his face—he either wasn’t listening or didn’t believe me,” Helms says. She remembers thinking: “They treat animals better than they’re treating humans.” [time-brightcove not-tgx=”true”] Helms—who has a temporomandibular joint [...]

Researchers applaud health officials ’ push to ease cannabis restrictions

Federal health officials are urging the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) to loosen its restrictions on cannabis—a move that could make it easier for researchers to study the drug’s potential medical benefits and harms. Following a review initiated by the White House in 2022 , the U.S. Department of Human Health and Services (HHS) this week recommended that DEA reclassify cannabis from its Schedule I category, which includes drugs considered to have a high potential for abuse and no accepted therapeutic value, such as heroin and LSD, to the lower risk Schedule III. If implemented, the policy change could relax [...]

Long COVID Recovery Remains Rare. Doctors Are Struggling to Understand Why

Since August 2020, David Putrino, director of rehabilitation innovation at New York’s Mount Sinai Health System, has helped treat more than 3,000 people with Long COVID. These patients, in his experience, fit into one of three groups. [time-brightcove not-tgx=”true”] A small number, no more than 10%, have stubborn symptoms that don’t get better, no matter what Putrino and his team try. A big chunk see some improvement, but remain sick. And about 15% to 20% report full recovery—an elusive benchmark that Putrino greets with cautious optimism. “I call it ‘fully recovered for now,’” Putrino says, since lots of people’s symptoms [...]

Elsie has been a patient at the Sears Institute for Anti-Aging for years.
