Speaker 1 (00:11):
You are about to listen to the Doctor Dahlia show,
sase stimulating medical talk radio. Any medical advice Doctor Dahlia
Wax gives on her show should not be substituted for
an actual visit to your medical provider. And now here's
doctor Dahlia.

Speaker 2 (00:32):
All right, we are back up Doctor Dahlia's show one
eight seven seven Doctor Dolly one eight seven seven.

Speaker 3 (00:37):
D C D A L. I. So here's a question
for you all.

Speaker 2 (00:43):
If somebody uses marijuana regularly, should they still have access
to their firearm? Seems like a simple question, but apparently
this is a case going up to the Supreme Court,
and the Supreme Court is going to decide if people
who regularly use the marijuana can still own a gun. Now,

(01:07):
I know this makes a lot of people kind of
nervous because everybody in their mother these days seems to
be using marijuana, and the last thing anybody wants is
their rights to access their firearm and to be able
to protect their family to be affected. On the other end,
nobody wants somebody who is not of who is inebriated,

(01:29):
drunk high, having a weapon. So it's going to be
an interesting case. So I guess the case is titled
United States versus HARMANI, and the court is going to
hear oral arguments I believe early next year. The case
is challenging a federal law that bans gun possession for

(01:52):
illegal drug users. Now, the law was passed of the
sixties nineteen sixty eight, and it affects all illegal drugs. Well, marijuana, uh.

Speaker 3 (02:01):
Is still considered illegal federally.

Speaker 2 (02:05):
And the law was originally designed because they know people
who were drunk or you know, if they you know,
we could take their gun away if it looks like
they were not of sound mind, had their full faculties.

Speaker 3 (02:17):
But what about somebody who.

Speaker 2 (02:18):
Uses marijuana regularly? Now many individuals look at that as well.
I I know people that use marijuana regularly, their body
is used to it. They're not there, they seem to
have more tolerance to it. I apologize, I have to
fix my lighting there. They don't even feel high, they

(02:38):
don't even get high anymore.

Speaker 3 (02:40):
So they just have marijuana the system.

Speaker 2 (02:44):
And then you have other individuals that have said, like
for those of us who worked in the ars, et cetera,
when you see marijuana psychosis, that's scary.

Speaker 3 (02:53):
There was a girl that and we spoke about this case.
We're in California.

Speaker 2 (02:57):
She and her boyfriend were smoking a bong watching movies
at home, and then she goes into a psychotic episode
and stabs them one hundred eight times. It kills them,
And so the question is coming up, how do we
know who is going to have a psychotic episode?

Speaker 3 (03:13):
What do we do if marijuana is legal.

Speaker 2 (03:15):
In states but illegal federally, and then who gets their
gun taken away?

Speaker 3 (03:20):
And who does it?

Speaker 2 (03:22):
This is not an easy topic and it's been something
we've talked about on the show before. So I want
to hear from you. One eight seven seven Dot DOLLI
one eight seven seven DC d Ali. So, I guess
there was a decision New York State Rifle and Pistol
Association versus Bruin that established the gun regulations must have

(03:43):
a historical tradition of precedent. The appeals court, there was
an appeal back in twenty twenty two where I guess
there was a case where the court found no historical
basis for disarming a sober person based solely on their
past substance use.

Speaker 3 (04:01):
So I agree with that.

Speaker 2 (04:02):
Yeah, I mean, somebody might have used drugs in the sixties,
or seventies or whatever. And you know, again, you know
what you did in your past as long as it
was an illegal criminal violence. No, you do need to
be able to protect yourself. But what do you do
with somebody that has access to something that can manipulate
their mind, that is psychedelic, that has THC And what

(04:24):
do you do when our choices and products of marijuana
are now much stronger than our grandparents marijuana in the sixties.
And so I'm really mixed on this because what I
don't like about laws is people can then twist the
law to their own advantage. So somebody could say, sorry,

(04:47):
you know, if you're using marijuana for medical medicinial purposes
and marijuana could affect your.

Speaker 3 (04:52):
Menation, no gun.

Speaker 2 (04:54):
And then somebody could say, well, what if you're also
using a beta blocker that can make you sleepy, Well,
then if you're sleeping, you should. If you're using an antihistamy,
if you're on an antidepressant, if you're on you know,
there could always be this this expansion of the law
and manipulation where they say there's a case that these

(05:16):
medications could affect your mentation and your mood. So no
gun for any of you, and I don't want that.
I think we all need to be able to be
able to protect our family. This world is getting crazier,
it's getting deadlier. I've had home invasions and thank god
I was able to have a shotgun.

Speaker 3 (05:35):
Uh cock it.

Speaker 2 (05:36):
I was ready to fire a warning shot, told him
to get the blake out.

Speaker 3 (05:39):
He left. If I didn't have a gun, who knows
what he would have done.

Speaker 2 (05:44):
And I'm standing in front of my kids rooms, ready
to arm them and ready to fight to the death
in case that guy was going to come.

Speaker 3 (05:49):
Into our house. And luckily I had a weapon. I
mean I could fight. I could, you know, poke his
eye out.

Speaker 2 (05:54):
I could do some crawm god, but I needed a gun,
and thank god I was able to have one and
get him out of our house. And it was like
two in the morning, so a husband was asleep, dog
was asleep, and I even said, I go, there's somebody
in the house. But I was too busy running to
get the gun and to protect my kids because he
was in the house.

Speaker 3 (06:13):
And so and then I go back to bed and
my husband's like, oh, what we happen? There was someone
in the house that took care of it the next morning,
he's like, what.

Speaker 2 (06:25):
So on the other end, we got a lot of
mental illness out there, and we have a lot of
people that are having psychotic episodes and turning violent, and
we keep saying people who are mentally ill to the
degree where they could.

Speaker 3 (06:43):
Choose violence shouldn't have a weapon.

Speaker 2 (06:46):
Why are we arming somebody who could then go to
their workplace where they got.

Speaker 3 (06:51):
Fired from and shoot people, or kill people, or go.

Speaker 2 (06:54):
To their ex girlfriend, boyfriend, spouse and shoot them up.

Speaker 3 (07:00):
So you know, the Supreme Court has our work cutout.

Speaker 2 (07:03):
Form it again, I want to hear from you one
eight seven seven Doc Dollari one eight seven seven d
O c d A l I. If somebody uses chronic marijuana,
you know, or if they use recreationally, should their gun
rights be affected?

Speaker 3 (07:18):
One eight seven seven doct Dolli one eight seven seven
d O C D A l I.

Speaker 2 (07:22):
Now, I I mean, I I really support the Second
Amendment in terms of because I've needed to protect myself.
I had a family member who was robbed by grandfather
that was back in the sixties, where somebody came up
put a gun to his head to rob the store
he was working at. Thank God, In those days, you
would be robbed and people wouldn't shoot. Now people just shoot,
you know, because they don't want a witness, and so,

(07:45):
you know, it's it's frustrating to think that you wouldn't be.

Speaker 3 (07:48):
Able to, you know, protect yourself.

Speaker 2 (07:51):
So my guess is they're going to legalize marijuana, so
that becomes a non issue.

Speaker 3 (07:54):

Thank you all for tuning in.

So I think last week we spoke about younger adults
and religion, how they are going to religion, and some
of them don't know what to choose. You know which one?
How do you know of the one you're choosing is
the right one? And one of my listeners was listening

(10:50):
to that segment and asked me, why don't Jews follow
the New Testament? Why don't Christians follow the Old Testament.
Now I am no biblical scholar. I'm sure you guys
have come to that conclusion, but it was an interesting question.

Speaker 3 (11:08):
And I'm sure the scripture tells us.

Speaker 2 (11:13):
You know, I mean, in the Old Testament. Now, those
are the rules, those are the covenants. You have the rules.
You know, then the Messiah comes. Jesus comes, whether you
believe Jesus was a messiah or not. And now we
have the teachings under Christ and his disciples in the
New Testament. And what's interesting is in the New Testament

(11:35):
it is not necessarily an extension of the Old Testament
in terms of all the rules. Sometimes there's a substitution.
So while in the Old Testament there was a lot
of rules on kosh rout and not eating pork, and
and you know, mixing. You know, don't boil a kid
in its mother's milk out of respect for the cow.

(11:56):
You know, you don't basically, you know, take the mom's
milk while eating her child in front of her. You know,
those kinds of things. Avoiding pork, you know, because of
the UH trichamniasis parasite, undercooked a shellfish, because of sigoretta poisoning,
and and you know, there's there there was a lot
of medical reasonings for it, in terms of not having

(12:18):
sex while a woman's on her period, while she's in pain,
the blood could transmit UH blood born pathogens. And so
also for health reasons, avoiding sex while somebody's on a period.

Speaker 3 (12:31):
Plus, if sex was supposed.

Speaker 2 (12:33):
To be more pro creational rather than recreational, it's.

Speaker 3 (12:37):
Rare to get pregnant while you're on your period. It
can't happen. But you know, a woman's in pain.

Speaker 2 (12:42):
Uh. It protected her from you know, being approached by
her spouse to have sex.

Speaker 3 (12:48):
And so why weren't some of those things?

Speaker 2 (12:52):
Not to mention, there's so many teachings you know, by
Jesus and the Disciples and and uh Romans and all
all the all the books and psalms and and and
and parts to the New Testament.

Speaker 3 (13:04):
Why haven't Jews taken that on?

Speaker 2 (13:06):
And so you know, it's it's this is I think
one of the reasons why you have many individuals who
are are confused.

Speaker 3 (13:13):
I don't I don't care what religion you are.

Speaker 2 (13:15):
I I if if you follow the ten commandments, you
you know, uh, love who you are, you love others,
you you know, support your community, You're good to society,
you're good to animals. You you know, are understand that
that all of this isn't happening because you're a superhero. Now,
I I whatever you want to believe is fine, you know,

(13:38):
as far as I'm concerned, but it is one of
the I think confusing factors for individuals. And and you know,
I've been asked many times by you know, Christians and Catholics,
you know, why didn't Jews follow Jesus uh And and
then I've heard from many Jews ask their Catholic friends
why did they What was it about Jesus that they

(13:59):
believed as opposed to some of the other prophets and
individuals who said they were the son of God. And
and so the the it's it's a real I don't
want to say disconnect, but it's a real uh rift
or or separation between the two religions.

Speaker 3 (14:16):
When we all came from Hebrews, you know.

Speaker 2 (14:20):
We we and then and even with Islam, now our
father was all Abraham. You had Ishmael and Isaac, the
two sons, and you know, Abraham vanished Hagar and Ishmael,
and that started the.

Speaker 3 (14:33):
Root of the you know, you know, Hebrew Islam war.

Speaker 2 (14:39):
But you know, and and and fighting over over the
centuries and millennia. But you know, there we all came
from Abraham. We all came from Hebrew lineage, and so
we we all have a lot of similarities. This is
why I love whoever you are, because you're you're We're

(15:00):
where we all came from or from very similar origins.
It's just where we went after we had new information,
we had new guidance, we had uh uh.

Speaker 3 (15:15):
Conversations with God.

Speaker 2 (15:16):
We we we we Some of us went one way,
some of us went another. And so you know, I
can't speak for all Jews, but I've gone back and
forth throughout my life going am I supposed to turn
to Jesus or not? And what's the right move? And
I've gone back and forth with that, and and I

(15:38):
can't speak for all Jews, but it's very confusing and daunting.
When you have an Old Testament, you learn the Old Testament,
you're supposed to follow the Old Testament, and then well
things change. And so when somebody doesn't have that guidance,
and and and they which is why I always recommend please.

Speaker 3 (15:58):
Talk to clergy, you know, please talk to family members.

Speaker 2 (16:01):
We have family members in our family who are Catholic,
who are non denominational Christian.

Speaker 3 (16:06):
Who are Jewish, who are atheist, you know.

Speaker 2 (16:09):
So so we have a family with a variety of
I don't think we have LDS and the family yet,
but but we you know, so, so.

Speaker 3 (16:17):
We definitely.

Speaker 2 (16:20):
We we definitely embrace you know, religion, and we embrace uh,
you know, any any teachings from God and from Jesus.

Speaker 1 (16:28):
Uh.

Speaker 2 (16:28):
We we have a very Judaeo Christian strong uh background.
But it's daunty for somebody to go, Wait a second,
if God made the Old Testament, does the Old Testament
go way? If God made the New Testament, are we
still supposed to look at the Old Testament?

Speaker 3 (16:49):
Or if you do go by the old Testament? Is
that wrong if you're praying to God? And and and
so it.

Speaker 2 (16:56):
Was very very scary in the Jewish religion as it
pertained to you. Shall you know, I am by Lord,
their God. There are no other gods before me, and
so and I can't speak for Jews back then, but
now you have the Son of God. So did Jews
who didn't follow Jesus play it safe and go you

(17:16):
know what?

Speaker 3 (17:17):
Okay, he might be the son of God. God said
pray to me.

Speaker 2 (17:21):
So we're just gonna still pray to God, and I
think we'll still be safe. You know, I can't say
that's what a lot of Jews thought, but I know,
you know, I have gone back and forth, going, well,
wait a second, what if I'm wrong?

Speaker 3 (17:35):
What if I'm wrong? I don't want to be wrong.

Speaker 2 (17:38):
This is why I get so frustrated with public officials
and health advice, because people need to make a decision.
You know, as it pertains to vaccine side effects, as
it pertains to COVID, you know what's right and what's wrong.
And when you have people mixed on answers, it's very
very confusing, and I think even Rabbis and priests might

(18:00):
struggle with with that, going wait a second. You know,
God can't have a son and the mom is Mary,
and that absolutely can't happen. And so are you know
why don't we believe that? Or are we so scared

(18:20):
because God? Would you know, anybody who who you know
didn't pray to him got in trouble? Are you you know?
Are you so scared that it's safer? Look, I pray
to God. So I'm still doing what I'm supposed to do,
and I respect his son, but I'm just gonna pray
to God and play it safe.

Speaker 3 (18:38):
I don't know.

Speaker 2 (18:39):
I'm no religious scholar, but I do believe that that
is because I do know of Jews and Catholics of
Christians that waiver in their faith, not because they don't
believe in God, but they struggle with what is the
right way to do this?

Speaker 3 (18:58):
And it is very confusing to think that.

Speaker 2 (19:00):
God made a covenant with Abraham, you went through all
the teachings of the Old Testament, but you don't necessarily
now use it or following. And so people are going
to I still keep kosher? Do I not do I?
And so now you have a younger generation who, unfortunately,
prior to Charlie Kirk's great work, was really starting to

(19:24):
diminish enthusiasm for religion. But you have a younger generation going, Okay,
I'm gonna find God. Well how through the Protestant way,
through the Lutheran way, through the Catholic way, through all
the as through Judaism how And so my opinion is
it's all good.

Speaker 3 (19:41):
I think God loves all of us.

Speaker 2 (19:43):
That's why we're still here, That's why we are so
robustly doing well, That's why we're thriving now.

Speaker 3 (19:50):
But it's it is daunting.

Speaker 2 (19:54):
And I appreciate what people are going through when they
I love that people care, I really do.

Speaker 3 (20:01):
I mean, I.

Speaker 2 (20:02):
Really love that people care. And they're they're you know,
because not only do you have to work on your
physical health and your mental health, but you also have
to consider, you know, your your spiritual health.

Speaker 3 (20:14):
Now you could be atheists.

Speaker 2 (20:15):
I think many people who are atheists do well, and
they're they're they're still very good people and they they
you know, still follow very similar rules and laws that
those of us who are religious do. But you know,
seeing that people are are trying to find their moral
compass and they're is is is a good thing, but
it it, you know, it's Each religion has explanations for that.

Speaker 3 (20:40):
But I can't explain, you know, you know, per se,
why you know, the.

Speaker 2 (20:45):
Old Testament isn't as relevant, why some people don't take
on the New Testament.

Speaker 3 (20:49):
I can't explain that.

Speaker 2 (20:50):
Yeah, and and I'm I I hope I'll have an
answer one day because I love religion. One eight seven

Speaker 3 (20:56):
They don't go.

Speaker 2 (20:56):
Away, Hi, guys, doctor Dahlia Here. Addictions can sneak up
on us and come in many forms, whether it's drugs, alcohol, sex,
video games, porn, or something less obvious such as food, internet,
or shopping. Addiction can seem innocent at first, and then
evolve into an insurmountable evil. In our book Addiction Basics,

(21:18):
Kitlin Khalikis and I dive into the common addictions and
provide tips for identifying and preventing these before they sneak
in and take over our lives. Addiction Basics can be

Speaker 3 (22:18):
All right, we are Madame Montadalisia.

Speaker 2 (22:21):
Thank you all for tuning in.

Speaker 3 (22:23):
One eight seven seven one eight seven seven d O
C D A l I. So.

Speaker 2 (22:27):
Last year, we were told that the number of individuals
identified on the lgbtq a I plus community was close
to twenty three.

Speaker 3 (22:35):
Percent in terms of young adults and gen.

Speaker 2 (22:39):
Zers were uh embracing the lgbtq A plus identification much
more than any of their other counterparts. So questions came in, going,
you know, is are we you know, how is that different?
Is it that we have baby boomers or Gen x's
of the same percentage of prevalence not identifying. Is it

(23:02):
that there is something turning people more towards.

Speaker 3 (23:05):
LGBTQA plus community. What's going on here?

Speaker 2 (23:09):
And so I think a lot of those numbers, that
twenty three percent wasn't that you had individuals that went
from being heterosexual to homosexual now all of a sudden.

Speaker 3 (23:19):
I think a lot of.

Speaker 2 (23:20):
Those numbers were those who didn't identify as male or female,
and as many of their friends who were a part
of that community, when you were close to them and
you wanted to support him, many individuals said, well, you
know what, I'm non binary. Why should I call yourself
a girl? Why should I call yourself a boy? I
am gender fluid, And those numbers increased drastically, and so

(23:45):
people were in support of their friends and family members,
and the numbers became higher.

Speaker 3 (23:54):
Then in terms of transgender.

Speaker 2 (23:57):
Identificate, identifying the true gender dysphoria population is very rare
for somebody to wake up and say, I'm in the
wrong body. I should not be having a vagina, I
should not be having a penis.

Speaker 3 (24:11):
This is not my body. I have got to change
and go through surgery. And those true gender.

Speaker 2 (24:21):
Dysphoric patients are rare. They exist, and I really feel
for them, and they need support, they need help. That's
got to be awful to wake up and say I'm
in the wrong body. But the number of individuals that
have identified as trands and felt that that might solve
a lot of their issues exploded in numbers exponentially during

(24:45):
the Biden years and on college campuses, it became more
and more common did they have true gender dysphoria or
did they feel if I'm going to identify it as
a man or as a woman, it might help with
my mental health. It might help with my depression, anxiety,

(25:07):
it might help with my you know, getting beat up
in the girl's bathroom boys bathroom.

Speaker 3 (25:12):
It might help with my sports.

Speaker 2 (25:14):
And so the question I always had suggested that doctors
ask is when you do have a child and a
young person saying I want.

Speaker 3 (25:23):
To be a boy, I want to be a girl.

Speaker 2 (25:25):
You need to filter down and dissect out what exactly
is the cause. Is it that they're getting beat up
in the boy's bathroom. Is it that they're not getting
sports and they keep being made fun of. Is it
that they prefer to be around girls but don't necessarily
want to be a woman a girl? And so you
need to kind of find out why. You know, is
it that somebody's assaulting them at home? And if they

(25:49):
didn't think they were a girl and they were a boy,
that maybe that uncle or aunt would go away. What
exactly is going on that's making them to go to
the other side for protection. Are they running away from
something or running to something? Well, now we're being told

(26:11):
that the numbers of those identified.

Speaker 3 (26:13):
As trans is dropping.

Speaker 2 (26:16):
The recent data taken for college campuses show a sharp
decline in the number of gen Z ers identified as
transgender over the past three years, according to Fox News.
Eric Kaufman, professor of politics at the University of Buckingham,
conducted his own analysis of large, non probability based survey
of US undergraduates, which included a question asking them to

(26:37):
identify their gender, and anything that wasn't man or woman
was considered gender non conforming, and you saw a huge
spike in twenty twenty two, twenty twenty three and in females,
and going down considerably by twenty twenty five in terms

(26:59):
of the Sheriff's students not identifying as male or female,
so they were offered man as choices, man, woman, non binary,
a gender, gender queer, or gender fluid unsure prefer not
to say. In the twenty twenty five survey of sixty
eight thousand students, only three point six percent of respondents
identified as a gender other than male or female. By comparison,

(27:22):
the figure was five point two percent in twenty twenty four,
six point eight percent in twenty twenty two and twenty
twenty three, So the share of trans identifying students effectively
haved in just two years, they said. The report also
found that non conforming sexual identity has sharply declined, those
identified as gay or lesbian remained stable. Heterosexuality has risen

(27:45):
ten points since twenty twenty.

Speaker 3 (27:47):
Three, they say.

Speaker 2 (27:48):
Additionally, in twenty twenty four and twenty twenty five, few
were college first year students identified as trans are queer
compared to seniors quote unquote, which is opposite of what
happened in twenty twenty two to twenty twenty three, so
often says it suggests that gender sexual nonconformity will continue
to fall. So this annual survey college free speech rankings
is conducted by the Foundation of Visual Rights and Expression

(28:10):
headquartered in Philly, and the aim was to gather students'
opinions on freedom of speech along with demographic information like gender.
So he conducted his analysis using six years of demographic
data democratic demographic data from the survey.

Speaker 3 (28:24):
So this was not a new survey.

Speaker 2 (28:26):
This was a survey that's that's been used, that's been
for a while, So there's not a new variable in that.
It's just individuals now completing the survey, you know, didn't
necessarily seem to give similar answers in terms of their
gender identity. So what could be going on, Well, there's

(28:47):
a few things, you know, one is is the momentum
and the movement and the feeling you're going to belong
starting to fizzle out, where you know, we're not doing
cancel culture that much any more. So it's okay to
be who you are if you want to be assists
male or assist female, or trans female or transit if

(29:08):
you want to be heterosexual, if you want to be homosexual,
you know, you we there's the cancel culture is starting
to be subdued, so you're more free to say who
you are and not feel like I better just put
something down there so I could get a job, so
I could get you know, points, so I don't get
alienated as being X, Y and Z, you know, even

(29:31):
though I really feel bad for what had happened to
the LGBTQ A plus community being sidelined and marginalized all
these years. And I love how people feel they could
be free about who they are. But you know, those
people who are you know, honest about who they are,
shouldn't you know, should be honest. You don't have to
feel like you need to change just to not get canceled.

(29:52):
So I think that's that's one of it. Number two
is we're seeing a lot of D transitioners. I just
had another patient D transitioning. The the transitioning of a gender.

Speaker 7 (30:01):
Is so.

Speaker 2 (30:04):
Exhausting, so painful, so costly, even traumatizing, And it's not
just a one time procedure.

Speaker 3 (30:15):
You need lifelong maintenance.

Speaker 2 (30:18):
It's a huge commitment, and many individuals it's easier for
them to be off the hormones. The hormones are really
people struggle with what the hormones make them feel like.
I mean, I remember when I went through trying out
different birth control. I couldn't imagine trying to take on
hormones to make me a man or to have the

(30:41):
semblance of a male.

Speaker 3 (30:42):
That would be awful.

Speaker 2 (30:44):
And so sadly, you have a lot of individuals who
are you know what, I know I identified as.

Speaker 3 (30:50):
That I just can't. There's it's just too hard, you know.

Speaker 2 (30:54):
I've known males where they're trying to keep up with
the bras and the makeup and the it's a lot.
It's exhausting for those of us women that try to
do the hair and the lashes and all that.

Speaker 3 (31:07):
I mean, sometimes I'm like, you know what, I'm sorry,
give me my husband's T shirt. I'm just gonna relax.
No makeup today, sorry, And and it does take a
lot of.

Speaker 2 (31:15):
Work, which is why I don't think kids should transition,
because how are they able to make a decision that
they're gonna be able to do that the rest of
their life. You are gonna have to be on hormones
for life, or you go back to your your baseline,
which is your male or female gender.

Speaker 3 (31:33):
So I think there's a lot of reasons, but it.

Speaker 2 (31:36):
Is interesting to see that the numbers are going down
in terms of people you know, saying I'm not gonna
identify as male or female one eight seven seven doct Dolly,
don't go.

Speaker 3 (33:59):
Don't left out. All right, we are back on the
Doctor Dahlia Show.

Speaker 2 (34:19):
Thank you all for tuning in one eight seven seven
Doctor Dolly one eight seven seven D O C D.

Speaker 3 (34:24):
A L I.

Speaker 2 (34:25):
So this is really really cool and we've spoken about
age related macular generation, which is one of the leading
causes of blindness. Well, we're being told by BBC News
that there is an i implant that is helping blind
patients able to read again.

Speaker 3 (34:42):
Wow wow Wow.

Speaker 2 (34:44):
Sheila Irvine, a seventy year old who is registered as
blind in England, told BBC that it was out of
this world to be able to read and do crosswords again.
She says, it's beautiful, wonderful, it gives me such pleasure.
Why well, because there are microchips that these surgeons can

(35:04):
insert and a surgeon did this and five patients at
Worstfield Eye Hospital in London and the results he says astounding.
The technology is offering hope for people with an advanced
form of dry age related macular degeneration called geographic atrophy.
Fairly two hundred and fifty thousand people in the UK
and five million worldwide suffer from this. It affects older

(35:28):
people where the macula, the center part of the retina,
loses its acuity and the eye the cells start to
become more damaged. Die off scarring happens and it results
in blurred or distorted central vision. You also lose color
fine detail, and so you need your retina to be

(35:49):
able to relay images through the optic nerve to the brain.
So this new procedure involves inserting a very tiny two
millimeters square photo voltaic microchip. It's like the thickness of
human hair, and they surgically put it under your retina.
Then the patient puts on glasses with the built in

(36:11):
video camera. The camera sends an infrared beam of video
images to the implant at the back of the eye
the back of the Then that sends them onto a
small pocket processor to be enhanced and made clearer. The
images are then sent back to the patient's brain via
the implant and optic nerve, giving them some vision again.

(36:36):
Now the patients had to spend months learning how to
interpret the images, but Mahim Muket, consultant ophthalmic surgeon at
Warfield Hospital, led the UK arm of the drial, said
this was life changing and pioneering. This is the first
implant that is demonstrated to give patients a meaningful vision
that they could use in their daily life such as reading, writing,
and they think it was a major advance. So having

(36:59):
a an ability to have somebody allow the retina to
make better.

Speaker 3 (37:07):
Images, send it to the it goes to a processor.

Speaker 2 (37:12):
Images are sent to the eyebray Infra being the implanted
implant sends the images.

Speaker 3 (37:18):
It gets to a processor.

Speaker 2 (37:21):
And then the image gets enhanced by that process. It's amazing.
The research Republic of the New England Journal of Medicine.
Thirty eight patients with this geographic atrophy and five European countries.

Speaker 3 (37:33):
Took part in the trial.

Speaker 2 (37:35):
Thirty two patients were given the implant. Twenty seven of
them could read again using their central vision after a year.
Because most people with the macular degeneration have still peripheral vision,
but they lose their central vision, so that's why they're
saying they were able to use their central vision again
after a year. This equated to an improvement of twenty
five letters or five lines on an eye chart. Not

(37:58):
sure what happened with the other patients, but still twenty
seven out of thirty two pretty pretty good, so pretty impressed.
Good for Sheila and these other patients. But wow, this
is something that is definitely needed because now that we
are outliving in our bodies, you know our you know,
our eyes are starting to go.

Speaker 3 (38:16):
Or you know, my mom, very healthy individual.

Speaker 2 (38:20):
In her eighties until she starts losing her vision to
mackelar degeneration, and now she has the wet kind.

Speaker 3 (38:27):
You have the dry kind. Now went to.

Speaker 2 (38:29):
Wet where there's blood vessels that pop, and unfortunately, I
don't think this type of procedure can then help her.
But we're getting better with it. But just that's my
fear where everything else. I'll be able to fight cancer,
God willing fight heart disease, but then the body is
going to start shutting down the eyes.

Speaker 3 (38:46):
The knees. Now for the knees.

Speaker 2 (38:48):
Okay, I gotta tell you, I do not know how
my joints are gonna last. I put a lot of
miles I've run well, I mean, I just literally and
figured a living put a lot of miles on my joints. Well,
researchers are now testing a new way to treat osteoarthritis,
which is the wear and tear arthritis of your joints.

Speaker 3 (39:07):
And they're testing low dose radiation.

Speaker 2 (39:11):
The study was published by researchers in Korea and presented
at this accord of Fox News at the Americans. I
guess South Korea, presented at the American Society for Radiation
Oncology Annual meeting in September, and they say a single
course of radiation can be a safe and effective treatment option. Now,
as much as I don't want any more radiation that

(39:32):
I've been exposed to, I gotta tell you, I don't
want to take steroids. I don't want to go through
any injections. I don't want to go through that much surgery.
I'd like to so be able to, you know, hold
on to as much you know, lifeline to my knees,
that that, and you know, and as possible.

Speaker 3 (39:48):
Well.

Speaker 2 (39:49):
Neosterearthritis, which many of us get with age, is degenerative
and you start losing your cartilage, you start getting bone.

Speaker 3 (39:56):
On bone, and then you get more arthritis. More bony spurs.

Speaker 2 (40:00):
You get swelling, stiffness of the knees, and it's frustrating.

Speaker 3 (40:05):
And so we have to physical therapy and exercise help.

Speaker 2 (40:07):
And I gotta tell you, you know, once I'm moving,
I feel good. But getting up out of a chair
aUI And yeah, I was limping a lot, and I
was grateful I could still do Disneyland. But that's when
I really worry when I can't do Disneyland again and
walk for I think we did thirty six thousand steps
or about thirteen to fourteen miles that day. I'm grateful,

(40:30):
but I gotta tell you the next day could barely
walk now. This trial with radiation there was a randomized
clinical trial and enrolled one hundred and fourteen patients with
moderate to mild knee osteoarthritis. They were assigned a very
low dose of radiation or or placebo or a medium dose.
The only other paid relief during the study was a

(40:52):
set of metaphit or tailool. The participants went through six
sessions as researchers assessed quote, meaningful improvement and at least
two of the following markers pay physical function and overall
assessment of the condition. The patients also completed a questionnaire
to report paid stiffness function. None of them recorded side effects.
None of the one hundred fourteen. After four months of treatment,

(41:14):
seventy percent of the low dose participants met the criteria
as of it working, compared to forty two percent of placebo.
Those in the very low dose group saw fifty eight
point three percent improvement, So the finding suggests that low
dose radiation did work beyond placebo. Placebo is where you

(41:35):
think something, you know, like, oh, is it working, Yeah,
it's working, it's working, and nothing's really happening to you.
Or we call them the dummy pills, not because you're
a dummy, but there are pills that are duds that
are not you know, with the medication. So we always
offer placebo in these trials to see is it just
that somebody thinks they're getting something done or are they So,

(41:55):
how would you do placebo with the radiation test, Well,
they probably still undergo the same procedure, but rather than
anything coming through.

Speaker 3 (42:02):
It just makes a sound, so they don't know.

Speaker 2 (42:05):
So the patients don't know if they're actually getting it
or not, and so they say. The study concluded that
the low dose radiation led to significant reductions of pain
and a perfunction after four months. So you know this
is this is huge now if you noticed it wasn't
for people like me with moderate to severe osteoarthritis. These

(42:31):
are too mild to moderate. So I think somebody like
me is already you know, screwed. But we need to find.

Speaker 3 (42:39):
Other ways to deal with inflammation.

Speaker 2 (42:43):
We need to find other things other than medications and pills,
because the chronic tile andol isn't safe on the liver
and oftentimes doesn't work. The chronic anti inflammatory it's like
improfen to proxy. These things again not safe used chronically
on the heart, stomach, lighting kidneys. So you know here

(43:05):
I am middle age. I'm hoping I have another six decades,
but I can't be taking medications for fifty sixty years.
So if you are undergoing oscro arthritis, you want to
lose weight, you want to still be active physical therapy,
and sometimes you do need medications or injections. Don't try

(43:27):
to radiate yourself. One eight seven seven dots dollar don't
go away?

Speaker 8 (43:53):
Can you believe with all the recent violent protests, looting
and destruction, some areas are considering either funding or abolishing
