Speaker 1 (00:00):
Are you bringing this up? Because you know what I
did on Friday.
Speaker 2 (00:02):
I know where you went. I just don't know what
everything was for.
Speaker 1 (00:07):
Well, I was at urgent care on Friday for abdominal discomfort.
Me and Kristen have the same look on our faces.
Speaker 2 (00:16):
Uh, what the now?
Speaker 3 (00:18):
I knew that, I knew that we were at urgent care,
but I didn't know what for the wait, what was it?
Speaker 2 (00:24):
What was it?
Speaker 1 (00:24):
From weeks ago? I told you I thought I had
trapped gas. Right, yeah, that's not gone away. So you
still feel like you got a big bulch in there? No,
it's different now.
Speaker 2 (00:34):
Well now you got retained stool.
Speaker 1 (00:36):
Because then I thought it was muscular and it wasn't
getting better. And on Thursday or Wednesday last week, I
started to feel nauseous.
Speaker 2 (00:46):
Why didn't you.
Speaker 3 (00:46):
Say something for the last month. No, like last Wednesday
you were like, I'm nauseous. I think I got I
got trapped gas again. And then on Friday Mexican coke.
Speaker 1 (00:59):
Yeah. I tried all the stuff people said. It didn't work.
Obviously I have something else going on. And on Friday,
actually based on what I read, no you don't, I
had a haircut. I went into haircuttery and sitting in
the chair, I was like, oh my god, I have
to go to urgent care.
Speaker 2 (01:14):
Did you rip it?
Speaker 3 (01:16):
No?
Speaker 1 (01:16):
I are just it's not pain. As I explained to
the urgent care, it is and this is exactly I
felt like a broken record from five years ago. Although
it's my entire lower torso and not just a very
centralized focused spot. I'm weak and sore on the sides
from my waist basically to my chest, like I just
(01:39):
feel a heaviness that is not fading.
Speaker 2 (01:46):
I think it's retain And she said it's in your head.
Speaker 1 (01:51):
No, no, I know.
Speaker 3 (01:55):
That's how you explain everything that I go through and
have wrong with me. That should be their first question.
Have you ever had frozen shoulder?
Speaker 1 (02:05):
They frozen shoulder I dealt with through my no.
Speaker 2 (02:08):
But it's also another mental thing.
Speaker 1 (02:10):
It's okay, but I this was the same Merchant carry
I went to five years ago. So it was just like,
I feel like it was a time slip to take
something we learned about this week and I was back
at it and they said, like, have you did you
go and get that colonoscopy?
Speaker 2 (02:32):
Yes?
Speaker 1 (02:32):
I did, and so I do have an appointment with
a specialist once again.
Speaker 2 (02:37):
For what for my are you going to see.
Speaker 4 (02:40):
Psychology or is it?
Speaker 1 (02:42):
Is it like rologists the same office.
Speaker 3 (02:44):
Yeah, it's a g I psychologist. Who's going to ever
heard of that? But I will take that information later. No, no,
they said so many people. There's really nothing wrong. It's
like it's kind of like frozen shoulder.
Speaker 4 (02:57):
No, but but that's a real thing.
Speaker 3 (02:58):
Okay, well no it's not. Tyler doesn't have chrones. Tyler
doesn't there's ibs with D or C. Tyler doesn't have
al sort of colitis. Have eaten strawberries lately? What is
that where you get a strawberry sea? Yeah, and your
butt crack the.
Speaker 4 (03:14):
Like stress affects every single part of your body.
Speaker 1 (03:19):
So like it's right now, it's really bothered.
Speaker 2 (03:21):
Stress gives you diarrhea.
Speaker 1 (03:23):
Oh my god, Yes, for sure, I don't have it.
But I haven't had diarrhea.
Speaker 4 (03:29):
Is the man who's had diarrhea for like ten years?
Speaker 3 (03:31):
Yeah, but I'm not even but on days where I'm
not stressed, diarrhea.
Speaker 2 (03:34):
Yesterday, I wasn't stressed out at all.
Speaker 1 (03:36):
Never He's the diarrhea king.
Speaker 2 (03:37):
That's right.
Speaker 1 (03:38):
These things were asked of me, and she said, I
don't think you need to run over to ge an
emergency scan.
Speaker 2 (03:45):
What did she ask?
Speaker 1 (03:46):
They did do a year analysis.
Speaker 2 (03:49):
How about what was that about a brain analysis?
Speaker 1 (03:52):
They just I think a urine attract infection. Well it
checks a lot of stuff. Yeah, but they can do
that at urgent cares. They don't have the image to
do a CT scan. And but I checked all the
boxes the call map. Normal bathroom habits have continued. You know,
nothing is I haven't changed my diet. I'm working out
(04:14):
the same, so like there's been no major lifestyle change.
So for almost month physically, is why I needed to
schedule with the specialists. Of course, they give you the
referral and then you go on and you talk to
a chat ai bot and it said we get to
it at twenty twenty five.
Speaker 2 (04:31):
Yeah, oh my god.
Speaker 4 (04:32):
Essentially.
Speaker 1 (04:33):
So I called yesterday directly and they got me about November.
Speaker 2 (04:38):
Have you thought about that?
Speaker 4 (04:40):
What's not that far away? I mean it's a few weeks.
Speaker 1 (04:42):
I know, but they said, try to get seen within
two weeks. Within two weeks, I have a physical on
the eleventh of November. But it was too long to
wait another month with my discomfort. You can get a
neck up checkup. You could take you and your Vegas
nerve in for therapy. He gives my head. She asked me.
She's like, have you ever had surgery? And I said,
(05:03):
only plastic And I caught her off guard.
Speaker 4 (05:08):
She was distracted the whole time.
Speaker 2 (05:13):
Are you hip to psychology?
Speaker 1 (05:16):
She said, oh oh, And I said, well, I had
a sister move from my face plastic surgery.
Speaker 3 (05:21):
I don't think she counted it. She definitely didn't note it.
Do you know Rob cruised but this may be youal No,
Now I don't know if I go directly to a
professional psychology a psychologist. Right, I'm hanging a shingle outside
the door, and I'll and that's my that's my bring
(05:42):
you and your Vegas nerve for therapy.
Speaker 1 (05:47):
Did you confirm that is the nerve that we're dealing with?
Speaker 2 (05:50):
No, Diane said yes.
Speaker 5 (05:51):
I thought the Vegas one was the one that that
makes people pass out on the toilet.
Speaker 2 (05:55):
That's isn't that your valsalva?
Speaker 3 (05:57):
Oh?
Speaker 2 (06:01):
Are you looking up? Yeah?
Speaker 3 (06:03):
Yeah, the Vegas nerve, it's not ve. It's Va like
badge Vegas nerve notughly. They have a bi directional relationship.
The Vegas nerve runs between the brain and the gut.
It's part of your parasympathetic nervous system, which controls a
variety of bodily functions, including mood and digestion.
Speaker 2 (06:27):
You aren't a bad.
Speaker 1 (06:27):
Mood a lot, that's her at all.
Speaker 2 (06:30):
I thought you said you're angry at home all the time.
Speaker 1 (06:33):
Uh no, I I'm critical about angry. I am stressed
a lot, all right. So then that exactly was the
diagnosis five years ago.
Speaker 2 (06:45):
Right, And here you go.
Speaker 3 (06:46):
He carries signals from your brain to your gut and
vice versa. According to a study published in Frontier Psychology,
the connection between what's happening in your mind and what's
happening in your gut makes perfect sense.
Speaker 2 (06:58):
Fix your brain.
Speaker 1 (07:00):
When I thought I had the heart attack, I went
to the cardiologists. They also also, they said was stress
that was at the dinner table, And at that moment
I was not happy. But when I called him from
the specialist, so she's saying.
Speaker 2 (07:15):
Which I don't even what's a specialist?
Speaker 1 (07:17):
Do you go to gastrologist? No, it's the same office
I went to.
Speaker 2 (07:20):
Oh wait, is this also what you went to for
your nuts cyst?
Speaker 1 (07:24):
No? Oh no, that was you're talking about my the
scrotal ultrasound. You're a lot going on.
Speaker 3 (07:33):
That wasn't stress That was stressful because she was so
young and blonde. No, I, I'm talking to the person's
scheduling and she's like, we can do eight thirty am.
Speaker 1 (07:45):
I said, that is not going to work. How about
nine thirty? I said nope. She's like, well, he's only
here Monday and Thursdays because he does a lot of offices.
And I said, fine, but does he do afternoons? And
she laughed And I felt so like conflicted because I
was offended by the laugh because it was rude.
Speaker 3 (08:04):
But at the same time, my fate was in her hands. Wait,
so what do you mean they don't do afternoon visits?
What kind of crazy doctor is that? He also needs
a psychologist?
Speaker 1 (08:12):
So so I said, I just I noticed you laughing.
Is that are you? Is that commentary on the culture
of medicine? Or have I said something and it's not you?
Speaker 6 (08:27):
Wow?
Speaker 1 (08:27):
Okay, that didn't answer it.
Speaker 4 (08:28):
Something funny, someone's.
Speaker 1 (08:33):
That we found someone that could see me in the afternoon.
Speaker 2 (08:35):
There was something funny in my head, you know, kind
of like what you got going on?
Speaker 1 (08:38):
But I'm telling you, I know what comes to this?
What's that I'm gonna have to get in there?
Speaker 3 (08:41):
Calonoscopy the okay, but why don't you try the psychologist.
Speaker 1 (08:47):
That has not ever come up in five years of well,
it hasn't been discomfort for five years in the five
years ago or now, no one has mentioned.
Speaker 3 (08:56):
That because nobody is put together the vaguus, nerve and
the brain.
Speaker 1 (09:00):
There was a psychologist on the episode of Castle that
was airing at Urgent Care.
Speaker 4 (09:04):
Did you know they slipped from HGTV?
Speaker 1 (09:06):
Did you know Miguel from This Is Us was on Castle?
Speaker 3 (09:09):
Oh?
Speaker 4 (09:09):
No, I didn't know that. I never watched Castle.
Speaker 1 (09:11):
I couldn't either. Nathan Philly on phillis.
Speaker 2 (09:15):
Him in something like that?
Speaker 1 (09:17):
Miguel?
Speaker 2 (09:18):
Where am I?
Speaker 1 (09:18):
When I heard the knock of the door, I honestly
was upset that I wasn't going to see how the
rest of the episode played out, because you know what
urgent here, you're in there for a while, right, It's
not so urgent if you're in at the emergency room.
Speaker 2 (09:28):
Hi, Elliott the.
Speaker 6 (09:29):
Morning, Hey, good morning guys.
Speaker 2 (09:33):
Hey, who's this?
Speaker 7 (09:36):
This is justin Hey, exciting news. I'm getting a colonopapy
on Tuesday. But my colorectal doctor suggested that if things.
Speaker 6 (09:46):
Are clear or whatever, that I go to a physical
therapist to.
Speaker 7 (09:52):
Train my sphincter, not to tell my brain I need
to take a dump every two hours.
Speaker 3 (09:58):
There you go, by the way that is, I could
help you, and that's a physical therapist to change your well.
See they're starting by the way. That makes total sense
to me. Right, go back to what I was saying.
It's you, it's it's brain. It needs a better thing
than brain to gut what did they call it? No? No,
(10:19):
like I need a better like like everybody would be like, oh,
it's asses and elbows. Uh what I like, it needs
a better like from the to butt, Like that's all
down here, that's that's this close. I need it from
here to here, Like I hold a hole. There you
go the the the but that you're starting, you're starting.
(10:41):
You're starting at the a hole part. If you start
at the eyehole where your brain is, I bet you
wouldn't even need to train your sphincter. You just need
to train your brain. So that's telling you you don't
have a dump issue or or a gastrointestinal issue. You
got a brain. You got a brain thing going on,
and it's I.
Speaker 6 (11:01):
Feel like I have to go all the time. And
when I go, I'm.
Speaker 7 (11:04):
Straining because I feel like I'm constipated. And then I
get myself hemorrhoids and then I'm bleeding heavily because I'm
so I'm straining so much. So he's going in to uh,
you know, give me.
Speaker 6 (11:17):
The old Uh it's it's it's uh scary.
Speaker 2 (11:22):
I don't like it. I've had it done before.
Speaker 7 (11:26):
And you know, you never know what they're gonna find
when whenever you hear.
Speaker 6 (11:29):
Like blood and the stool, blood and stool.
Speaker 2 (11:31):
And they're not gonna find it.
Speaker 6 (11:32):
I'm off all the box.
Speaker 3 (11:33):
You know, you know what they're gonna find that you
need that you need a gi psychologist.
Speaker 2 (11:37):
And that's what I'm here for. Two things. Number one,
I believe.
Speaker 3 (11:41):
I believe Timmy from Toronto is getting a colonoscopy today.
Is it's either today or tomorrow. Maybe it's tomorrow. The no,
but I was I wanted to. I was asking a
question about the box and he was like, hey, listen,
I'm gonna be down for.
Speaker 2 (11:55):
A little bit. I was like, well, what.
Speaker 3 (12:00):
Then it's funny he mentioned hemorrhoids Jackie's friend Val has
really bad hemorrhoids right now?
Speaker 4 (12:05):
Why and would you say that on the radio?
Speaker 3 (12:08):
No? But that's not even the bad part. She asked
Jackie if she wanted.
Speaker 1 (12:12):
To see them? Wow, how about that this person on FaceTime?
Speaker 3 (12:17):
No, in person, I said to Jackie, tell me you
said yes.
Speaker 2 (12:22):
Jackie said, no, you want to.
Speaker 1 (12:25):
See your friends.
Speaker 3 (12:26):
If somebody came to me and was like you, you've
got to see the grape farm that I'm growing, I
would one hundred percent take a look at that.
Speaker 1 (12:33):
I'm sared.
Speaker 2 (12:34):
But the but yeah, VAL's got really bad hemorrhoids right now?
Where am I going? Line two?
Speaker 3 (12:40):
Hi, Ellie in the morning. And by the way, that's
not a big deal. People get hemorrhoids. I don't know
why you guys are all like, why would you say that?
Speaker 2 (12:46):
Hi? Who is this?
Speaker 8 (12:51):
Is it?
Speaker 3 (12:51):
Me?
Speaker 2 (12:51):
Yeah?
Speaker 6 (12:52):
Hi?
Speaker 2 (12:52):
Who's this?
Speaker 6 (12:53):
Good morning?
Speaker 8 (12:55):
So, So, my father was just in the hospital for this.
He had a hernia that was blocking his intestine and
he couldn't go to the bathroom. It's been on and
off for months.
Speaker 1 (13:08):
No, but it was a.
Speaker 3 (13:08):
Hernia that blocked two things. Number one and then let
me answer for Tyler. He's going to the bathroom, like,
there's no, there's no blockage or anything going on there.
So I don't think that's it. I think Tyler is
what is it saying here? Oh it's in your head?
Speaker 2 (13:24):
Yes?
Speaker 1 (13:27):
How is your father doing?
Speaker 8 (13:30):
He's he's eighty one, he'll be fine.
Speaker 1 (13:32):
So he is my age.
Speaker 8 (13:35):
Yeah, but I had a but I had a friend
over the summer who had the same situation and the
hernia it blocked his intestine.
Speaker 6 (13:45):
But then the his intestine exploded.
Speaker 3 (13:48):
O god, yeah, no, Tyler just has Tyler just got
he just needs a psychologist.
Speaker 2 (13:53):
Yeah, he's I'm sorry to hear about that obvious.
Speaker 8 (13:56):
But get an X ray?
Speaker 2 (13:58):
The hey, do they think you? Thank you?
Speaker 3 (14:00):
Would they do they check that when you get a colonoscopy?
Would they be able to see that?
Speaker 1 (14:04):
I mean they can do X rays that urgent care
and that was not something that can ever go to
urgent care. I've had X rays urgent care ever. Yeah,
ever go the emergency room. She told me I didn't
have to. It didn't seem urgent. The well, sorry, it
didn't seem like an emergency.
Speaker 2 (14:20):
Right, so instead they just sent you to a specialist.
Speaker 1 (14:22):
Kimberly. Yes, yeah, in a month kimberly said, I should
try queafing.
Speaker 2 (14:30):
Oh, you got trapped air in your front.
Speaker 1 (14:31):
Butt, so a lot of advice coming in.
Speaker 2 (14:35):
Let me ask chief, Chief queen. Could that be a problem.
Speaker 3 (14:38):
No, but the same thing you should start, Yeah, the
same place we started with your frozen shoulder.
Speaker 1 (14:45):
That was a physical therapy.
Speaker 2 (14:47):
In your head.
Speaker 3 (14:47):
Well, physical therapy is checking the a hole and that's
your vegas. Nerve goes a hole to eye hole.
Speaker 1 (14:55):
So I'll let you know when we need off for
a colonoscopy.
Speaker 4 (14:58):
The oh god darn that you can't get one.
Speaker 2 (15:02):
That gets me back to my Saturday colonoscopy.
Speaker 5 (15:05):
And it's non existent. And I've gotten laughed at when
I was asked about that. So no, that's why I
told you. I know where this is headed.
Speaker 3 (15:14):
The but you but but okay, but what if we
knew you don't need a.
Speaker 4 (15:18):
Colon you need to do it over Christmas break?
Speaker 3 (15:20):
You don't need That's what he got his plastic surgery done.
Speaker 2 (15:25):
But what what what if? What if? What if colon
oscopy wasn't the first thing you need? You don't they
didn't tell you that.
Speaker 1 (15:31):
No, I have not been again that the Augustine had one. Oh, well,
I had it five years ago. I told I wouldn't
need another one. Nil, I was forty five. But I
am forty two now and I am having a.
Speaker 3 (15:41):
Symptoms concerning symptoms, and I still have that family history.
Speaker 2 (15:49):
Does your stomach hurt now?
Speaker 1 (15:52):
Again? I, as I always say to any sort of
medical professional, I hate the word pain. It hurt because
if I was shot in the.
Speaker 3 (16:02):
Style, of course, and if you were shot in the head,
it would hurt more, and if they cut your feet
off it would hurt more.
Speaker 2 (16:09):
Maybe that's my solution done on the you know what?
Speaker 3 (16:12):
On the pain scale, the answer is no, but yes,
are you in discomfort?
Speaker 1 (16:17):
I'm uncomfortable right now?
Speaker 2 (16:19):
Right, that's discomfort.
Speaker 1 (16:20):
It comes on after extended sessions of the show. But
being seated certainly, so stand up, but that's not an
immediate Have you tried queping relief? Standing up? Not ververted?
Speaker 3 (16:47):
But I appreciate the journey that you've all been on
with me. Here's what to know before taking your gut
to therapy. They said, if people would just go in
and talk to a psychologist, clear up a lot, clear
up a lot of it. Both your your physical issue
and your clothes would clear a lot of it up.
Speaker 2 (17:09):
And what do we say about them diapers? Let's move
those aside.
Speaker 1 (17:13):
I'm not wearing a diaper, Yes, that.
Speaker 2 (17:20):
Would make me laugh.
Speaker 4 (17:22):
You think he would wear a diaper in this room.
Speaker 2 (17:24):
If you have no choice, what are you gonna do?
Speaker 5 (17:26):
You wouldn't be able to tell by looking at his pants,
I'll tell you that, no, but you would hear the crinkle, crinkle, crinkle,
Are you bringing this up? Because you know what I
did on Friday.
Speaker 2 (00:02):
I know where you went. I just don't know what
everything was for.
Speaker 1 (00:07):
Well, I was at urgent care on Friday for abdominal discomfort.
Me and Kristen have the same look on our faces.
Speaker 2 (00:16):
Uh, what the now?
Speaker 3 (00:18):
I knew that, I knew that we were at urgent care,
but I didn't know what for the wait, what was it?
Speaker 2 (00:24):
What was it?
Speaker 1 (00:24):
From weeks ago? I told you I thought I had
trapped gas. Right, yeah, that's not gone away. So you
still feel like you got a big bulch in there? No,
it's different now.
Speaker 2 (00:34):
Well now you got retained stool.
Speaker 1 (00:36):
Because then I thought it was muscular and it wasn't
getting better. And on Thursday or Wednesday last week, I
started to feel nauseous.
Speaker 2 (00:46):
Why didn't you.
Speaker 3 (00:46):
Say something for the last month. No, like last Wednesday
you were like, I'm nauseous. I think I got I
got trapped gas again. And then on Friday Mexican coke.
Speaker 1 (00:59):
Yeah. I tried all the stuff people said. It didn't work.
Obviously I have something else going on. And on Friday,
actually based on what I read, no you don't, I
had a haircut. I went into haircuttery and sitting in
the chair, I was like, oh my god, I have
to go to urgent care.
Speaker 2 (01:14):
Did you rip it?
Speaker 3 (01:16):
No?
Speaker 1 (01:16):
I are just it's not pain. As I explained to
the urgent care, it is and this is exactly I
felt like a broken record from five years ago. Although
it's my entire lower torso and not just a very
centralized focused spot. I'm weak and sore on the sides
from my waist basically to my chest, like I just
(01:39):
feel a heaviness that is not fading.
Speaker 2 (01:46):
I think it's retain And she said it's in your head.
Speaker 1 (01:51):
No, no, I know.
Speaker 3 (01:55):
That's how you explain everything that I go through and
have wrong with me. That should be their first question.
Have you ever had frozen shoulder?
Speaker 1 (02:05):
They frozen shoulder I dealt with through my no.
Speaker 2 (02:08):
But it's also another mental thing.
Speaker 1 (02:10):
It's okay, but I this was the same Merchant carry
I went to five years ago. So it was just like,
I feel like it was a time slip to take
something we learned about this week and I was back
at it and they said, like, have you did you
go and get that colonoscopy?
Speaker 2 (02:32):
Yes?
Speaker 1 (02:32):
I did, and so I do have an appointment with
a specialist once again.
Speaker 2 (02:37):
For what for my are you going to see.
Speaker 4 (02:40):
Psychology or is it?
Speaker 1 (02:42):
Is it like rologists the same office.
Speaker 3 (02:44):
Yeah, it's a g I psychologist. Who's going to ever
heard of that? But I will take that information later. No, no,
they said so many people. There's really nothing wrong. It's
like it's kind of like frozen shoulder.
Speaker 4 (02:57):
No, but but that's a real thing.
Speaker 3 (02:58):
Okay, well no it's not. Tyler doesn't have chrones. Tyler
doesn't there's ibs with D or C. Tyler doesn't have
al sort of colitis. Have eaten strawberries lately? What is
that where you get a strawberry sea? Yeah, and your
butt crack the.
Speaker 4 (03:14):
Like stress affects every single part of your body.
Speaker 1 (03:19):
So like it's right now, it's really bothered.
Speaker 2 (03:21):
Stress gives you diarrhea.
Speaker 1 (03:23):
Oh my god, Yes, for sure, I don't have it.
But I haven't had diarrhea.
Speaker 4 (03:29):
Is the man who's had diarrhea for like ten years?
Speaker 3 (03:31):
Yeah, but I'm not even but on days where I'm
not stressed, diarrhea.
Speaker 2 (03:34):
Yesterday, I wasn't stressed out at all.
Speaker 1 (03:36):
Never He's the diarrhea king.
Speaker 2 (03:37):
That's right.
Speaker 1 (03:38):
These things were asked of me, and she said, I
don't think you need to run over to ge an
emergency scan.
Speaker 2 (03:45):
What did she ask?
Speaker 1 (03:46):
They did do a year analysis.
Speaker 2 (03:49):
How about what was that about a brain analysis?
Speaker 1 (03:52):
They just I think a urine attract infection. Well it
checks a lot of stuff. Yeah, but they can do
that at urgent cares. They don't have the image to
do a CT scan. And but I checked all the
boxes the call map. Normal bathroom habits have continued. You know,
nothing is I haven't changed my diet. I'm working out
(04:14):
the same, so like there's been no major lifestyle change.
So for almost month physically, is why I needed to
schedule with the specialists. Of course, they give you the
referral and then you go on and you talk to
a chat ai bot and it said we get to
it at twenty twenty five.
Speaker 2 (04:31):
Yeah, oh my god.
Speaker 4 (04:32):
Essentially.
Speaker 1 (04:33):
So I called yesterday directly and they got me about November.
Speaker 2 (04:38):
Have you thought about that?
Speaker 4 (04:40):
What's not that far away? I mean it's a few weeks.
Speaker 1 (04:42):
I know, but they said, try to get seen within
two weeks. Within two weeks, I have a physical on
the eleventh of November. But it was too long to
wait another month with my discomfort. You can get a
neck up checkup. You could take you and your Vegas
nerve in for therapy. He gives my head. She asked me.
She's like, have you ever had surgery? And I said,
(05:03):
only plastic And I caught her off guard.
Speaker 4 (05:08):
She was distracted the whole time.
Speaker 2 (05:13):
Are you hip to psychology?
Speaker 1 (05:16):
She said, oh oh, And I said, well, I had
a sister move from my face plastic surgery.
Speaker 3 (05:21):
I don't think she counted it. She definitely didn't note it.
Do you know Rob cruised but this may be youal No,
Now I don't know if I go directly to a
professional psychology a psychologist. Right, I'm hanging a shingle outside
the door, and I'll and that's my that's my bring
(05:42):
you and your Vegas nerve for therapy.
Speaker 1 (05:47):
Did you confirm that is the nerve that we're dealing with?
Speaker 2 (05:50):
No, Diane said yes.
Speaker 5 (05:51):
I thought the Vegas one was the one that that
makes people pass out on the toilet.
Speaker 2 (05:55):
That's isn't that your valsalva?
Speaker 3 (05:57):
Oh?
Speaker 2 (06:01):
Are you looking up? Yeah?
Speaker 3 (06:03):
Yeah, the Vegas nerve, it's not ve. It's Va like
badge Vegas nerve notughly. They have a bi directional relationship.
The Vegas nerve runs between the brain and the gut.
It's part of your parasympathetic nervous system, which controls a
variety of bodily functions, including mood and digestion.
Speaker 2 (06:27):
You aren't a bad.
Speaker 1 (06:27):
Mood a lot, that's her at all.
Speaker 2 (06:30):
I thought you said you're angry at home all the time.
Speaker 1 (06:33):
Uh no, I I'm critical about angry. I am stressed
a lot, all right. So then that exactly was the
diagnosis five years ago.
Speaker 2 (06:45):
Right, And here you go.
Speaker 3 (06:46):
He carries signals from your brain to your gut and
vice versa. According to a study published in Frontier Psychology,
the connection between what's happening in your mind and what's
happening in your gut makes perfect sense.
Speaker 2 (06:58):
Fix your brain.
Speaker 1 (07:00):
When I thought I had the heart attack, I went
to the cardiologists. They also also, they said was stress
that was at the dinner table, And at that moment
I was not happy. But when I called him from
the specialist, so she's saying.
Speaker 2 (07:15):
Which I don't even what's a specialist?
Speaker 1 (07:17):
Do you go to gastrologist? No, it's the same office
I went to.
Speaker 2 (07:20):
Oh wait, is this also what you went to for
your nuts cyst?
Speaker 1 (07:24):
No? Oh no, that was you're talking about my the
scrotal ultrasound. You're a lot going on.
Speaker 3 (07:33):
That wasn't stress That was stressful because she was so
young and blonde. No, I, I'm talking to the person's
scheduling and she's like, we can do eight thirty am.
Speaker 1 (07:45):
I said, that is not going to work. How about
nine thirty? I said nope. She's like, well, he's only
here Monday and Thursdays because he does a lot of offices.
And I said, fine, but does he do afternoons? And
she laughed And I felt so like conflicted because I
was offended by the laugh because it was rude.
Speaker 3 (08:04):
But at the same time, my fate was in her hands. Wait,
so what do you mean they don't do afternoon visits?
What kind of crazy doctor is that? He also needs
a psychologist?
Speaker 1 (08:12):
So so I said, I just I noticed you laughing.
Is that are you? Is that commentary on the culture
of medicine? Or have I said something and it's not you?
Speaker 6 (08:27):
Wow?
Speaker 1 (08:27):
Okay, that didn't answer it.
Speaker 4 (08:28):
Something funny, someone's.
Speaker 1 (08:33):
That we found someone that could see me in the afternoon.
Speaker 2 (08:35):
There was something funny in my head, you know, kind
of like what you got going on?
Speaker 1 (08:38):
But I'm telling you, I know what comes to this?
What's that I'm gonna have to get in there?
Speaker 3 (08:41):
Calonoscopy the okay, but why don't you try the psychologist.
Speaker 1 (08:47):
That has not ever come up in five years of well,
it hasn't been discomfort for five years in the five
years ago or now, no one has mentioned.
Speaker 3 (08:56):
That because nobody is put together the vaguus, nerve and
the brain.
Speaker 1 (09:00):
There was a psychologist on the episode of Castle that
was airing at Urgent Care.
Speaker 4 (09:04):
Did you know they slipped from HGTV?
Speaker 1 (09:06):
Did you know Miguel from This Is Us was on Castle?
Speaker 3 (09:09):
Oh?
Speaker 4 (09:09):
No, I didn't know that. I never watched Castle.
Speaker 1 (09:11):
I couldn't either. Nathan Philly on phillis.
Speaker 2 (09:15):
Him in something like that?
Speaker 1 (09:17):
Miguel?
Speaker 2 (09:18):
Where am I?
Speaker 1 (09:18):
When I heard the knock of the door, I honestly
was upset that I wasn't going to see how the
rest of the episode played out, because you know what
urgent here, you're in there for a while, right, It's
not so urgent if you're in at the emergency room.
Speaker 2 (09:28):
Hi, Elliott the.
Speaker 6 (09:29):
Morning, Hey, good morning guys.
Speaker 2 (09:33):
Hey, who's this?
Speaker 7 (09:36):
This is justin Hey, exciting news. I'm getting a colonopapy
on Tuesday. But my colorectal doctor suggested that if things.
Speaker 6 (09:46):
Are clear or whatever, that I go to a physical
therapist to.
Speaker 7 (09:52):
Train my sphincter, not to tell my brain I need
to take a dump every two hours.
Speaker 3 (09:58):
There you go, by the way that is, I could
help you, and that's a physical therapist to change your well.
See they're starting by the way. That makes total sense
to me. Right, go back to what I was saying.
It's you, it's it's brain. It needs a better thing
than brain to gut what did they call it? No? No,
(10:19):
like I need a better like like everybody would be like, oh,
it's asses and elbows. Uh what I like, it needs
a better like from the to butt, Like that's all
down here, that's that's this close. I need it from
here to here, Like I hold a hole. There you
go the the the but that you're starting, you're starting.
(10:41):
You're starting at the a hole part. If you start
at the eyehole where your brain is, I bet you
wouldn't even need to train your sphincter. You just need
to train your brain. So that's telling you you don't
have a dump issue or or a gastrointestinal issue. You
got a brain. You got a brain thing going on,
and it's I.
Speaker 6 (11:01):
Feel like I have to go all the time. And
when I go, I'm.
Speaker 7 (11:04):
Straining because I feel like I'm constipated. And then I
get myself hemorrhoids and then I'm bleeding heavily because I'm
so I'm straining so much. So he's going in to uh,
you know, give me.
Speaker 6 (11:17):
The old Uh it's it's it's uh scary.
Speaker 2 (11:22):
I don't like it. I've had it done before.
Speaker 7 (11:26):
And you know, you never know what they're gonna find
when whenever you hear.
Speaker 6 (11:29):
Like blood and the stool, blood and stool.
Speaker 2 (11:31):
And they're not gonna find it.
Speaker 6 (11:32):
I'm off all the box.
Speaker 3 (11:33):
You know, you know what they're gonna find that you
need that you need a gi psychologist.
Speaker 2 (11:37):
And that's what I'm here for. Two things. Number one,
I believe.
Speaker 3 (11:41):
I believe Timmy from Toronto is getting a colonoscopy today.
Is it's either today or tomorrow. Maybe it's tomorrow. The no,
but I was I wanted to. I was asking a
question about the box and he was like, hey, listen,
I'm gonna be down for.
Speaker 2 (11:55):
A little bit. I was like, well, what.
Speaker 3 (12:00):
Then it's funny he mentioned hemorrhoids Jackie's friend Val has
really bad hemorrhoids right now?
Speaker 4 (12:05):
Why and would you say that on the radio?
Speaker 3 (12:08):
No? But that's not even the bad part. She asked
Jackie if she wanted.
Speaker 1 (12:12):
To see them? Wow, how about that this person on FaceTime?
Speaker 3 (12:17):
No, in person, I said to Jackie, tell me you
said yes.
Speaker 2 (12:22):
Jackie said, no, you want to.
Speaker 1 (12:25):
See your friends.
Speaker 3 (12:26):
If somebody came to me and was like you, you've
got to see the grape farm that I'm growing, I
would one hundred percent take a look at that.
Speaker 1 (12:33):
I'm sared.
Speaker 2 (12:34):
But the but yeah, VAL's got really bad hemorrhoids right now?
Where am I going? Line two?
Speaker 3 (12:40):
Hi, Ellie in the morning. And by the way, that's
not a big deal. People get hemorrhoids. I don't know
why you guys are all like, why would you say that?
Speaker 2 (12:46):
Hi? Who is this?
Speaker 8 (12:51):
Is it?
Speaker 3 (12:51):
Me?
Speaker 2 (12:51):
Yeah?
Speaker 6 (12:52):
Hi?
Speaker 2 (12:52):
Who's this?
Speaker 6 (12:53):
Good morning?
Speaker 8 (12:55):
So, So, my father was just in the hospital for this.
He had a hernia that was blocking his intestine and
he couldn't go to the bathroom. It's been on and
off for months.
Speaker 1 (13:08):
No, but it was a.
Speaker 3 (13:08):
Hernia that blocked two things. Number one and then let
me answer for Tyler. He's going to the bathroom, like,
there's no, there's no blockage or anything going on there.
So I don't think that's it. I think Tyler is
what is it saying here? Oh it's in your head?
Speaker 2 (13:24):
Yes?
Speaker 1 (13:27):
How is your father doing?
Speaker 8 (13:30):
He's he's eighty one, he'll be fine.
Speaker 1 (13:32):
So he is my age.
Speaker 8 (13:35):
Yeah, but I had a but I had a friend
over the summer who had the same situation and the
hernia it blocked his intestine.
Speaker 6 (13:45):
But then the his intestine exploded.
Speaker 3 (13:48):
O god, yeah, no, Tyler just has Tyler just got
he just needs a psychologist.
Speaker 2 (13:53):
Yeah, he's I'm sorry to hear about that obvious.
Speaker 8 (13:56):
But get an X ray?
Speaker 2 (13:58):
The hey, do they think you? Thank you?
Speaker 3 (14:00):
Would they do they check that when you get a colonoscopy?
Would they be able to see that?
Speaker 1 (14:04):
I mean they can do X rays that urgent care
and that was not something that can ever go to
urgent care. I've had X rays urgent care ever. Yeah,
ever go the emergency room. She told me I didn't
have to. It didn't seem urgent. The well, sorry, it
didn't seem like an emergency.
Speaker 2 (14:20):
Right, so instead they just sent you to a specialist.
Speaker 1 (14:22):
Kimberly. Yes, yeah, in a month kimberly said, I should
try queafing.
Speaker 2 (14:30):
Oh, you got trapped air in your front.
Speaker 1 (14:31):
Butt, so a lot of advice coming in.
Speaker 2 (14:35):
Let me ask chief, Chief queen. Could that be a problem.
Speaker 3 (14:38):
No, but the same thing you should start, Yeah, the
same place we started with your frozen shoulder.
Speaker 1 (14:45):
That was a physical therapy.
Speaker 2 (14:47):
In your head.
Speaker 3 (14:47):
Well, physical therapy is checking the a hole and that's
your vegas. Nerve goes a hole to eye hole.
Speaker 1 (14:55):
So I'll let you know when we need off for
a colonoscopy.
Speaker 4 (14:58):
The oh god darn that you can't get one.
Speaker 2 (15:02):
That gets me back to my Saturday colonoscopy.
Speaker 5 (15:05):
And it's non existent. And I've gotten laughed at when
I was asked about that. So no, that's why I
told you. I know where this is headed.
Speaker 3 (15:14):
The but you but but okay, but what if we
knew you don't need a.
Speaker 4 (15:18):
Colon you need to do it over Christmas break?
Speaker 3 (15:20):
You don't need That's what he got his plastic surgery done.
Speaker 2 (15:25):
But what what what if? What if? What if colon
oscopy wasn't the first thing you need? You don't they
didn't tell you that.
Speaker 1 (15:31):
No, I have not been again that the Augustine had one. Oh, well,
I had it five years ago. I told I wouldn't
need another one. Nil, I was forty five. But I
am forty two now and I am having a.
Speaker 3 (15:41):
Symptoms concerning symptoms, and I still have that family history.
Speaker 2 (15:49):
Does your stomach hurt now?
Speaker 1 (15:52):
Again? I, as I always say to any sort of
medical professional, I hate the word pain. It hurt because
if I was shot in the.
Speaker 3 (16:02):
Style, of course, and if you were shot in the head,
it would hurt more, and if they cut your feet
off it would hurt more.
Speaker 2 (16:09):
Maybe that's my solution done on the you know what?
Speaker 3 (16:12):
On the pain scale, the answer is no, but yes,
are you in discomfort?
Speaker 1 (16:17):
I'm uncomfortable right now?
Speaker 2 (16:19):
Right, that's discomfort.
Speaker 1 (16:20):
It comes on after extended sessions of the show. But
being seated certainly, so stand up, but that's not an
immediate Have you tried queping relief? Standing up? Not ververted?
Speaker 3 (16:47):
But I appreciate the journey that you've all been on
with me. Here's what to know before taking your gut
to therapy. They said, if people would just go in
and talk to a psychologist, clear up a lot, clear
up a lot of it. Both your your physical issue
and your clothes would clear a lot of it up.
Speaker 2 (17:09):
And what do we say about them diapers? Let's move
those aside.
Speaker 1 (17:13):
I'm not wearing a diaper, Yes, that.
Speaker 2 (17:20):
Would make me laugh.
Speaker 4 (17:22):
You think he would wear a diaper in this room.
Speaker 2 (17:24):
If you have no choice, what are you gonna do?
Speaker 5 (17:26):
You wouldn't be able to tell by looking at his pants,
