Speech-language pathologist and vocal specialist Stacy Menton joins Dr. Linda Bluestein to expose the surprising links between connective tissue disorders like EDS and common (but misunderstood) issues with voice, breathing, and swallowing. From overlooked diagnostics to cutting-edge therapies and startling new research, this conversation peels back the curtain on symptoms often dismissed or misdiagnosed. A must-listen for patients, clinicians, and anyone who's been told "everything looks normal." Takeaways: Hypermobile patients often experience voice, breathing, and swallowing issues—but go undiagnosed. Imaging and scope studies often miss the root causes of symptoms in EDS patients. Certain vocal exercises may actually harm people with fragile connective tissues. Sniffing can break a dangerous airway cycle caused by inducible laryngeal obstruction. An international team is working to create speech therapy protocols specifically for EDS. Find the episode transcript here . Want more Stacey Menton?

What if your brain fog, fatigue, and hypersensitivity weren’t “just anxiety”—but signs of a much deeper immune malfunction? In this episode, Dr. Pradeep Chopra co-hosts a rare and revealing conversation with Dr. Theoharis Theoharides, the scientist who first discovered that mast cells communicate with microglia in the brain. Together, they dive into groundbreaking research on neuroinflammation, autism, histamine, stress, and why brain fog may not be “all in your head”—but inflammation inside it. From overlooked biomarkers to misunderstood triggers, this episode unpacks the science most doctors still don’t know… but patients desperately need Takeaways: What you didn’t know about the link between stress and mast cell activation in the brain. A surprising breakdown of how mast cells could be fueling neuroinflammation and foggy thinking. Why autism and MCAS might share more than we think—especially in early development. The overlooked role of environmental stressors in triggering immune responses that affect cognition. How one researcher’s journey into mast cells rewrote everything we thought we knew about inflammation. Fine the episode transcript here . Want more Dr. Theoharis Theoharides?

You asked. I answered. In this solo Q&A, I tackle some of the biggest and most misunderstood questions from our Bendy Bodies community. From toddlers flagged for autism to adults fighting for an EDS diagnosis, from altitude flares to functional neurologic disorder, this episode pulls no punches. I talk low-dose naltrexone (LDN), altitude hacks, medication struggles, and the quiet panic of a diagnosis that suddenly shifts under you. Plus, we look ahead to the 2026 hEDS (hypermobile Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome) classification changes and the stigma that still haunts hypermobile bodies. Whether you're a patient, a provider, or somewhere in between—you’ll hear something in this episode that makes you feel seen. Takeaways: How the diagnosis of functional neurologic disorder (FND) is often misused—and what that means for bendy patients. What one family doctor learned when her toddler was flagged for autism... and EDS. The truth about low-dose naltrexone—and why it’s not a quick fix. Why a change in your diagnosis doesn’t change your reality. A life-saving strategy for traveling to high altitudes with EDS or POTS. Find the episode transcript here .

What if your breast implants were silently fueling your fatigue, anxiety, rashes, or brain fog—and no one believed you? In this powerful episode, Dr. Linda Bluestein speaks with renowned breast surgeon Dr. Eva Nagy who’s become a global voice for patients suffering from Breast Implant Illness (BII) . Together, they uncover the overlooked signs of mast cell activation, connective tissue involvement, immune dysregulation , and the invisible damage that can linger—even when scans look normal. Dr. Nagy breaks down the myths about “safe” implants, explains how BII can show up years—or hours—after surgery, and why removal must be done in a very specific way to truly heal . This episode exposes the real science behind BII, the staggering rate of gaslighting, and why so many hypermobile and chronically ill women are caught in this hidden epidemic. Takeaways: Her rash showed up the day she woke from surgery—what came next was worse. Silicone can migrate to your brain, lymph nodes… even your spinal cord. “Just anxiety”? One surgeon says no—and she has the pathology to prove it. A capsule left behind might mean years of symptoms—and one more surgery. When should breast implants be removed - even if there doesn't seem to be a problem Find the episode transcript here . Explant System Review Questionnaire Want more Dr. Eva Nagy?

What if the pain you’ve been told to ignore… was actually coming from your hips, your spine—or your immune system? In this deep-dive episode, Dr. Linda Bluestein is joined by Dr. Andrew Goldstein , an expert in sexual pain disorders, to unravel the misunderstood causes of vulvar and pelvic pain in people with EDS (Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome), MCAS (Mast Cell Activation Syndrome) , and POTS (Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome). Dr. Goldstein reveals why the traditional diagnosis of “vulvodynia” might be missing the real problem, and how factors like labral tears, pudendal nerve compression, Tarlov cysts, pelvic organ prolapse, endometriosis, nerve proliferation , and mast cell disorders can all converge into debilitating pain—and be completely overlooked. He explains why pelvic floor physical therapy sometimes fails, when Botox is a game-changer , and how stigma and misinformation continue to prevent EDS patients from receiving proper care. If you've ever been told "it's all in your head"—this episode proves it’s not. And it might be the roadmap you've been searching for. Takeaways: You might not feel hip pain at all—but your clitoris, rectum, or vulva will. A cyst that’s left off your MRI report could be ruining your life. That pain during intimacy? It could be nerve sprouting—and it's not your fault. When physical therapy fails, it may not be the therapy’s fault. He’s performed 1,300+ surgeries. Here’s how he decides if you really need one.

What if your rushed, robotic medical visit isn’t just frustrating, but a symptom of something much darker? In this powerful episode, Dr. Linda Bluestein sits down with Dr. Victor Montori, author of Why We Revolt , to explore what’s truly broken in healthcare and why patients and clinicians are suffering on the same side of the fight. Together, they uncover the corrosive impact of industrialized, fast medicine , the hidden costs of “heroic” care, and how complex patients are forced to carry impossible burdens in a system that sees them as data points, not people. Dr. Montori shares his vision for a Patient Revolution , explains why the soul of healthcare is under siege, and issues a call to action for anyone who's ever felt like just another number. If you’ve sensed something is deeply wrong in the exam room… you’re not imagining it. Takeaways: What if your provider is hurting just as much as you are—but for different reasons? When care vanishes, both the patient and the doctor suffer. The healthcare system wants faster visits. Dr. Montori wants a revolution. Heroic care comes at a cost—and not just for the clinician. You’re not imagining the harm. But you’re not powerless either. Reference Links: https://www.patientrevolution.org/ https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC11902612/ Want more Dr. Victor Montori?

What if your symptoms weren’t isolated… but signals in a much larger system breakdown? In this wide-ranging solo Q&A, Dr. Linda Bluestein uncovers the hidden threads connecting uncontrolled pain before surgery, unexplained eye issues, MCAS, multiple chemical sensitivity, Alpha-gal syndrome, and even autism risk. From the scar tissue no one warned you about to the medication that works—but doctors won’t prescribe—it’s all here. Dr. Bluestein shares eye-opening research on TILT (Toxicant-Induced Loss of Tolerance), fragrance-triggered flares , and why standard pre-op care fails patients with connective tissue disorders. And woven throughout it all? The heavy, frustrating stigma that people with Ehlers-Danlos syndromes and hypermobility spectrum disorders know too well—being dismissed, doubted, and disbelieved. This episode doesn’t just give answers. It reveals what questions you should have been asking all along. Takeaways: This one over-the-counter product might be behind your chronic eye issues—and no one’s talking about it. Considerations and cautions for taking cromolyn A “safe” eye ointment led to lasting damage—here’s why. Doctors say no to pain meds before surgery… but do they know the full risk?

What if the diagnosis was just the beginning—and the root cause was hiding in plain sight? In this riveting episode, Dr. Linda Bluestein welcomes pediatrician and integrative medicine expert Dr. Pejman Katiraei, whose work with children struggling with autism, mold exposure, and mast cell activation reveals a shocking truth: many kids aren’t just neurodivergent—they have neuroinflammation. Together, they peel back the layers on what’s really driving autistic behaviors , why some children can’t tolerate food, noise, or even hugs—and how mast cells and histamine might be behind it all. Dr. Katiraei shares remarkable stories of transformation , explains why traditional testing often fails, and reveals a controversial treatment that’s changing lives. If your child is sensitive, reactive, or struggling to connect—and you’ve been told it’s just "behavioral"—this conversation might rewrite what you thought was possible. Takeaways: One child's refusal to eat broccoli held more answers than anyone expected. Could colic be the first warning sign of central inflammation? He couldn’t feel love—until one unlikely medication changed everything. A house tested clean… but the child kept getting worse. Why? Some diagnoses miss what’s burning beneath the surface.

What if your body’s collapse wasn’t burnout… but a system crash no test can catch? In this episode, Dr. Linda Bluestein welcomes Isabelle Ramirez Burnett, systems engineer, health coach, and founder of Renegade Research, to reveal the silent breakdowns behind ME/CFS, long COVID, and hypermobility-related illness. Diagnosed with ME/CFS at just 7 years old, Isabelle pulls back the curtain on decades of missed diagnoses, medical dismissal, and her discovery of a community willing to do what the healthcare system couldn’t—build their own science. You’ll hear about the remission that stunned researchers, the controversial meds that gave her life back, and the protocols patients are building from the ground up. If you’ve ever wondered why your body feels like it’s working against you—or what recovery might actually look like—this episode may change everything. Takeaways: She couldn’t stand in front of the fridge—until a “taboo” medication changed everything. The labs were normal. Her body was screaming. A grandmother, a diagnosis, and an unstoppable fight for answers. What if your symptoms don't show up on any scan… but still hold the truth? The protocol that sparked a remission—and a global movement. Find the episode transcript here .

What if your dental history held the key to a complex diagnosis no one’s caught? In this gripping episode of the Bendy Bodies Podcast , Dr. Linda Bluestein welcomes Dr. Audrey Kershaw , a trailblazing oral surgeon who’s uncovered hundreds of hidden Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome (EDS) cases—starting in the dental chair . From patients who “can’t numb up,” to decades-long battles with halitosis, gum fragility, and jaw instability, Dr. Kershaw shares the subtle (and sometimes shocking) signs that suggest something far deeper is at play. Together, they explore what happens when TMD, failed anesthesia, slow healing, and even bad breath point to connective tissue disorders that most dentists never learn about. If your mouth has always felt... different—this episode might explain why. Find the episode transcript here . Takeaways: Some patients can’t numb up… and the reason may change how you see your entire body. Your wisdom tooth extraction might’ve revealed more than just a dental issue. That persistent jaw pain? It may be pointing to something systemic. A 40-year case of bad breath led to an unexpected diagnosis—here’s what happened. You might be able to spot a connective tissue disorder… before a dentist even says a word.

What if the very things you do to feel or look better are quietly making you worse? In this solo episode of the Bendy Bodies Podcast, Dr. Linda Bluestein answers listener questions—but what begins as a practical Q&A quickly dives into rarely discussed truths about cosmetic procedures, EMFs, neuroinflammation, and even fragrances as dangerous triggers. You’ll hear surprising stories from patients who’ve suffered unexpected complications—and discover how seemingly harmless habits, like party tricks or perfume, could be tipping the scale toward long-term damage. Plus, Dr. Bluestein unpacks the case for renaming MCAS, the underrecognized connection between transness and hypermobility, and why your surgeon might not be as EDS-aware as they claim. If you think you’ve already heard it all about EDS, MCAS, and chronic illness—you haven’t heard this. Takeaways: A harmless beauty treatment… until it’s not. Learn what no one tells you about EDS and cosmetic procedures. What if your MRI looks “normal”—but your spine is screaming otherwise? Think party tricks are just for fun? Your joints might not agree. One invisible environmental trigger may be silently wrecking your nervous system. Even your surgeon might not know this one crucial detail—unless you ask the right question.

What if the fatigue you feel isn’t just “tiredness”—but the result of an entirely different physiological state? In this riveting episode, Dr. Linda Bluestein sits down with Dr. Brayden P. Yellman of the Bateman Horne Center to explore ME/CFS (myalgic encephalomyelitis/chronic fatigue syndrome) —a misunderstood condition that masquerades as general exhaustion but goes much deeper. Together, they unravel the hidden markers of post-exertional malaise , explain how upright posture can quietly sabotage your day, and discuss the mysterious collapse of energy systems that no blood test can catch . With no known biomarker , diagnosis is a clinical puzzle—and one too often dismissed. Dr. Yellman also explores emerging theories around brainstem tension, tethered cord syndrome, mast cell activation, and how some surgeries may reset the body in unexpected ways . If you've been chasing answers for fatigue, brain fog, or unexplained crashes, this episode may finally connect the dots you didn’t know existed. Note: You may notice a few choppy moments in this video due to our guest’s frame rate, but the conversation is so valuable, we knew we had to share it with you. Thanks for your understanding! Takeaways: Fatigue might not be what you think—and your body may be operating in a totally different mode. Your upright posture could be silently draining your energy every hour of the day. A “normal” MRI doesn’t mean your nervous system is functioning normally. Could your symptoms be the result of your brainstem being pulled—literally? The most revealing test? It might be one you do at home... and it doesn’t involve a lab. YouTube video mentioned in the episode: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=00f6Yx9ab3I Find the episode transcript here .

What if the symptoms you've been chasing—brain fog, fatigue, bladder pain, even anxiety—were all connected by one overlooked cell type? In this fascinating episode of the Bendy Bodies Podcast, Dr. Linda Bluestein is joined by Dr. Theoharis Theoharides, one of the world’s leading experts on mast cells, to unravel the hidden roles they play in some of the most complex chronic illnesses. From histamine sensitivity that mimics allergies, to lab tests that miss what’s really going on, Dr. Theoharides sheds light on why so many patients are dismissed—and what doctors are missing. The conversation takes unexpected turns into brain inflammation, food triggers, and even autism, where mast cells may hold untapped insight into neurodevelopment and behavior. If you've ever felt like your symptoms don’t make sense—or that the medical system keeps overlooking something obvious—this episode might just connect the dots. Takeaways: You might be surprised to learn which test isn’t as useful for diagnosing MCAS as people think. The brain fog you're feeling? There's a cellular player involved—and it's not just inflammation. Some reactions you're calling “allergies” might be something very different (and trickier to detect). The way mast cells interact with the brain could change how we think about neurodevelopment. A few supplements could help—but only if you're asking the right questions first.
