    I’d love to see Dr. Pavlova 
 my rheumatologist was awful to me, didn’t want to see me in person, didn’t believe my symptoms were real. Instead she reduced me to tears, and made me fight to be tested. Turns out it was Dermatomyositis, thankfully my dermatologist pushed to get me tested and is helping me find a new rheum. Such a horrible process. Care, compassion, and good bedside manner goes so far with patients who have chronic illness.

      Primum non nocere is unknown in Rheumatology. They feel too exalted to bother with fully informed consent. They are the most entitled and paternalistic doctors around. Many of them love to degrade their patients. I suppose that makes it easier to rationalize the damage they do. I am bitter about rheumatology and I’m actually holding my tongue here lol. For dermatomyositis you might want to investigate a combination of boswellia turmeric & ginger. Ginger is anticoagulant so you may need to be a bit careful. No you do not need your physicians permission to take supplements but I would strongly recommend that you consult a knowledgeable sympathetic pharmacist if you are on prescription meds. Other supplements such as pine bark grapeseed and green tea may also be helpful.

      There is nothing worse than a doctor that doesnt actually believe you.
      I've been through this.
      He never asked further questions, he never ordered more tests.
      He just said... nahhh, its nothing. (and got paid for this "diagnosis")
      I felt terrible, i started questioning myself. Maybe i was exaggerating? Maybe im being weird.
      Turns out he was wrong and i was right to be suspicious about it.
      Worst feeling ever.

      I too wish I had a good doctor. An infectious disease specialist tested and diagnosed me with Sjogrens. My Ro and La are negative so other docs dismissed me. The Early Sjogrens Panel confirmed my diagnosis. Sjogrens is so much more than dry eyes but doctors act like it’s nothing! It causes damage and can lead to lymphoma!! I wish all doctors cared to get properly educated for their patients’ sake.

      @@mamashiraz I hear you. I had to make a decision to stay with a bad doctor or find a new one. And a lot of non-chronically ill/disabled people have no idea just how daunting of a task that is. I'm in the US & I have private ins through my parent bc I'm under 26-- so I knew that if I didn't start at least trying as soon as possible, one day I might really suffer for it. So I looked. It took me 3 months of calling everyone I could to find someone in-network that was taking new patients before I got two appointments. First one I booked was in 8 months but really close to where I live, the second was in 3 but pretty far away. I kept both just in case, but the 3 month one went beautifully. So now I have a new Rheumatologist who understands me and my needs as a CI & disabled person.
      I guess what I'm trying to say is that, even if you know you'll have to wait years to see them, start looking now. Because when the day comes it might change everything for the better. Good luck. I know things are really really awful right now, but future you will thank you.
      And the way I see it is that the farther out the appointment, the more time I have to save up $. And I can always cancel if I find someone better, sooner. I wish you well. You deserve exceptional care.

      I usually go to the internet (reputable, accurate, and verifiable info only, of course) if I have specific questions, but sometimes there's stuff you just won't think to ask, especially when you're chronically ill/disabled and have so much medical stuff to think about and meds to take. So I agree, it's so important to have a Dr. that can tell you what you won't even think to ask!

    My daughter has RA. As mentioned in the vlog, she has issues with her heart. She had to have a mitral valve replacement when she was 27. She then had to go on warfarin, but it was a struggle to get her inr levels within the normal range. Last year she needed more surgery when they found a blood clot around the valve. Before they could operate, she had a stroke, and then had to have open hear surgery 2 days later. They replaced the valve with a pigs valve. Her surgery went well but they had to place her in an induced coma for a week, then she had her second stroke. She fought back and after 8 weeks at the steoke rehabilitation unit, she was finally well enough to go home. Not a lot of people realise theres more to arthritis than swollen joints.

    You are exactly how I aim to be each time I see patients. I am currently doing my internship year in Mexico, so basically it's still basic education to become a general physician. You are a great inspiration with your dedication, good-natured spirit and passion for your work. Keep it up!

    As an RA patient, I appreciate my rheumatologist so much. She listens to me and I feel like we’re a team trying to keep this beast under control. Immediately after my RA diagnosis, she started aggressively treating me to minimize joint damage. She thoroughly explained the medications she prescribed me and addressed all my concerns. I am really happy I found a great doctor because you hear so many horror stories. I’m sure you’re going to be equally as awesome as my doctor. ❀

    So excited for doctors like you and future of empathetic doctors especially in rheumatology! Us women EDSer, small fiber neuropathy, RSD/CRPS, dysautonomia/sjogrens, fibro, mast cell activation disease peeps need doctors like you. It's not ok how often we get written off for years on end. 😿 ivig and dupixent have been game changers for me!

    I love my RA doctor, she saved me. I was in so bad shape when I went to see her for the first time, I was taking so many pain killers for 2 months before I got my appt. and that day we had a snow storm and I got a call from her office, if I was going to make it and I said I could not miss it. I had tears in my eyes when the doctor saw me, I was so happy and she was the only one who can take this pain away and able to walk my children to school again. Thank you for choosing to be a RA doctor, I have so much respect for you đŸ’•đŸ‡”đŸ‡ŠđŸ‡šđŸ‡ŠđŸ™đŸŸ

    I have seronegative RA, treated for almost 20 years, and thanks to doctors like you, I have been able to still walk and use my hands. Thank you for showing others that RA isn’t just a name for bad arthritis and that it’s different from OA in many ways. Over the years, it’s been hard to explain to others that I can’t diet and except use my way out of this chronic disease. Thanks to good medicine and good science, we are able to live better than ever with autoimmune disease.

    Seems like a great team there!! Wish my rheumatologist team was like this - I did not have 'high enough' inflammation markers so I was told it was in my head and was given a referral to a psychologist. Made me leave their office in tears only with a offer to xray my wrists to 'prove there's nothing wrong.'
    Got a fibromyalgia diagnosis after months and months of battling for a second opinion. Only took me 5 years to finally get an answer haha.
    You will be changing peoples lives by showing this amount of care and compassion.

    I am so excited to find these videos! I too have had really bad experiences and rheumatology and so has my sons. They were diagnosed with juvenile rheumatoid arthritis and then until we found a rheumatologist at children's hospital, they were treated like crap by other doctors. Children can't make up the pain they go through and they can't make up fevers and joint swelling! I was diagnosed with lupus before they were ever diagnosed with anyting and I've had three doctors confirm it and now I have a doctor after 30 years trying to tell me that I don't have it. The joint destruction in my body is becoming horrific and she's trying to say that it is osteoarthritis! I have a high ANA titer and there is inflammation in my body and in the joints. My right hand joints are now destroyed and I didn't even know it until she x-rayed them and now it has attacked my thumb joint it is a nightmare and it happened within a 4 month. I don't think osteoarthritis would warp my hands the way this stuff is warping me. So I want to say that I am grateful for this video and for your efforts to treat all of us with autoimmune problems as human beings who need love care and healing and information! Keep going sweetheart and I am really glad that you are doing this and it would be great to be your patient! You are going to be a fabulous doctor!
