    These are great videos. I'm a medical student and I wish professors would start at this level of instruction before moving on to more intense, detailed material. I had a lecture where the professor started by immediately listing off the different types of myositis-related antibodies and how to make proper diagnoses, without ever explaining what myositis was in the first place!

    Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Excellent explanation. Clear and easy to understand. I have been very sick for 1 year, many tests, many doctors. I am now seeing doctors at Cleveland clinic, Neuromuscular/autoimmune doctors. Appointment next week. I can't wait. No one could understand why I have trouble swallowing and throat pain. Weakness. Legs feel like jello. Tired. Joint pain. Migraines. I do not have MS, No Lupus, No sarcoidosis. I think I have this!
    Thanks.

      I have lupus, sjogren's, fibromyalgia, RSD,, a vascular necrosis, palpitations lung problems and lung pain. Been diagnosed with pneumonia several times, severe lymph nodes swelling often, eyesight issues from site to infections with stents put in, carry my formation of the skull my brain sex through 7 and 10 mm, major skin issues including lesions and skin basically slides right off my face if I were to try to pop some type of pimple. For the first time recently developed hives on the same day that my lymph nodes swelled up really bad never had that before, shortness of breath but I am a smoker which I know is bad I have cut down a lot, currently a bit overweight but have dropped about 15 lb now with eating right and cutting out a lot of sugar as well as eating late at night, insomnia, anxiety, memory issues, spinal stenosis cervical compressions several displacements of the spine / herniations and protrusions, transverse process fractures cause unknown, diagnosed with lupus when I was 14 the others followed I am just about to be 40, severe fatigue, neuropathy, edema and extremities face tongue, GI issues, trouble swallowing, occasional migraines, I always feel like my body needs to be stretched or broken in half backwards forwards and side to side. My question is one of my main symptoms is that I cannot help but stretch my spine mostly but my legs arms and buttocks as well, seems to stem from my torso. I have to engage in extreme flexibility exercises and stretching to fulfill this this neurological desire in order to gain some type of relief. But it is short-lived as my body gets extremely weak as if I ran a mile very quickly. I used to be extremely active even with disease. The progression is devastating and I feel that most doctors don't really understand that sometimes more than one disease as a whole is what they need to look at. They don't see that in depth they may be able to decipher this little that is my body and help me to understand what I can do to help it. I used to hike camp skydive go out with friends now I can't even sit on my bed or lay down without being compromised. I feel like I also need to take the biggest breaths possible hold it in and push almost to stretch my lungs and rib cage along with the spine. My spine has been giving me trouble since I was a kid my entire body hurt as a child. When I was a toddler all of my hair including eyelashes and eyebrows, fingernails and toenails fell off and I developed an extreme rash from head to toe that was open and raw. When I was about five or six I had a few bouts where my legs went out from under me and we're so weak they could not work and that just mysteriously went away. Pretty much my entire life I have been put through ongoing stresses of pain which is really traumatic actually and I'm still dealing with trauma of it daily. Especially when I come across a doctor or nurse practitioner or doctor's assistant who isn't taking me seriously or isn't an educated enough to understand my complexity of diseases. I often have trouble explaining what I am feeling because I think it overwhelms them and I am already overwhelmed from it as it is so I'm sure I add my anxiety into it wanting so badly to get answers and help. I must say that it is very hard to find a physician who really wants to solve the mystery. Most just tried to make things minut and it is so frustrating and really takes a toll on my emotions and mentality. Then they see me as depressed or having anxiety. Yes there were many times where I became depressed because of all of this it has been so long now and I am so fed up that it is quite hard to stay in a depressive state because that actually adds to conflicts already happening ithin my body. For many many years I was not and still in some cases I'm not being taken seriously though I have blood work and images to show things. Because of this treatment came way too late in most cases of illness diagnosed. By the time they do what I've been begging or asking it's so severe. How do I explain this to my doctor without overwhelming him with information? Your feedback is greatly appreciated and very much needed. Thank you for what you are doing. Words actually cannot explain or describe just how important you have become in my life. Thank you for doing these videos and bringing awareness to things that are life altering which most cannot understand. When a doctor asks me what my pain level is it's almost like a cop out because I have several different very particular kinds of pain and they are always all different from one another. An average person's 10 in pain is my 30 in pain. But if I say that out loud I am looked at like I am exaggerating when in truth this is really reality for me everyday and all through the night. It's really taking a toll on me and I really just miss freedom. Besides the stretching and flexible exercising, sometimes a very certain type of massaging only in certain areas helps. If other certain areas are massaged or touched it is an awful pain but the expected areas are the best feeling. It's almost the same type of feeling that I get when I do those flexible stretching exercises. I don't know where to go from here do you have any suggestions on how I can articulate these things too providers so that they will want to help and not feel like they can't wait until I'm out of the room? This is so hard. Some of them seem to expect me to have the answers. They expect me to give them timelines and remember everything. But the truth is there is just so much going on in my body. I have been hospitalized for kidney problems but that was a very long time ago although I do have severe kidney pain now and blood in my urine as well as protein. Any thoughts on that?

      I'm also losing my hair and it has happened rapidly in the last 3 days at the same time that the lymph nodes all swelled up. Currently during this time I also got an eye infection. As well as weird bumps and rashes on my body. Including the knees hands and face. In coming across lymphoma I became very mind blown because what they were describing is how I feel. I am usually fighting multiple infections at once I am losing more weight than I expected eating correctly I don't think is the only reason because I have felt very nauseous and a very weird type of I guess you would say headache over my head during the lymph nodes swelling I'm going through. I feel exhausted all the way to the center of my bones. The littlest movement or degree of adjusting can significantly deplete my energy and hurt me. I have noticed in the last month that my vision is changing drastically. I had very good eyesight even with the sjogrints. But then after this month has gone in the last few days around the same time that I lost my hair and got these infections along with lymph nodes swelling, there are times when I feel like I am going blind and the left eye and losing focus and clarity in my right side. Especially when reading. If I am looking in the mirror up close I can see my normal outline of my eyes if I were to back up all of a sudden there are black line type shadows under my eyes or around my lips that I see and as I come closer to magnify it slowly disappears. If I look at le
      blurry sight and trouble focusing. Worse with the left eye than right side. It seems to be worse at night. My skin I have always tried to explain that it feels like muscles nerves and the center of my bones are all going crazy at the same time. How do I explain that without confusing them or becoming overwhelmed myself? I came across something while reading and researching,I believe from Johns Hopkins, about lymphoma. I am at greater risk for developing lymphoma than most people due to the fact that I have sjograns and lupus. I had no idea about any of this and I have had lymph node issues for a long time the last major episode was about 9 months ago and my throat swelled up more than ever. Along with other areas. This lasted over a month and a half and I could not eat and barely drink I lost about 20 lb in that'll time and nothing ever came of it
