It is my great privilege to interview Dr. David Clarke, MD, a board-certified gastroenterologist and internal medicine physician with decades of experience working with people with medically unexplained symptoms of what Dr. Clarke calls "stress illness." In this interview, Dr. Clarke shares some of his experiences with people with dizziness and vertigo, and we also discuss why gastrointestinal symptoms are so common in people with stress illness.

Dr. Clarke's book, They Can't Find Anything Wrong! is available for purchase on Amazon https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/159181... or at your favorite bookseller. You can find out more about Dr. Clarke on his website, stressillness.com

00:00:00 Intro
00:03:32 How Dr. Clarke started working with patients with stress related illnesses
00:07:35 Patient story of someone with extreme episodes of vertigo
00:10:16 patients with stress illness or psychophysiologic disorders tend to have more than one symptom at a time
00:11:20 how many symptoms you have or how long you have had them DOES NOT determine how quickly you can recover
00:13:37 the diagnostic label someone gets does not determine recovery; most people with these symptoms have NO psychiatric disorder
00:15:31 Symptoms can occur a very long time after stress or trauma
00:24:09 how low self esteem is a common denominator that leads to symptoms; personality traits of people with these issues
00:29:30 one big clue about your stress: what was going on in your life when the symptoms started
00:30:42 Dr. Clarke saw many people with symptoms of vestibular dysfunction
00:33:00 these disorders are extremely common
00:34:29 Randomized controlled trials are now showing that these methods work better than conventional approaches (CBT, etc.)
00:37:20 Patients with these disorders often don’t look particularly stressed out
00:41:49 Medically unexplained vestibular disorders should be investigated as a psychophysiological disorder
00:43:42 Tinnitus is another common psychophysiologic disorder
00:44:24 The gastrointestinal symptoms and diagnoses that can be stress illnesses: reflux, abdominal pain, nausea, diarrhea, constipation and more
00:46:14 the most common diagnoses are irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) and reflux that doesn’t improve with medication
00:48:44 How stress manifests as a gastrointestinal problem
00:51:27 The treatment is the same as the treatment for neural circuit dizziness
00:52:40 there are many similarities between dizziness and gastro symptoms that have a neural circuit origin
00:55:17 There is no substitute for actually LISTENING to a patient and asking about his or her life
00:57:05 Many people don’t realize or acknowledge how difficult their childhoods were
00:59:20 One of the most important questions Dr. Clarke would ask his patients
01:01:01 why so many people end up with gastro symptoms from stress
01:02:52 Why many times “food sensitivities” are not from food at all
01:04:18 Dr. Clarke believes this same process may apply to “triggers” for migraines
01:05:54 Look for current stress, childhood stress, undiagnosed PTSD, anxiety and depression
01:08:00 Other resources and hope!
