🎥 Today on @bendy_bodies: What are doctors missing when treating chronic illness?
According to Dr. David Kaufman, one of the biggest gaps in care for chronic and complex illness patients is the lack of a detailed, in-depth medical history. 🩺
Most doctors simply don’t have the time for a deep dive in a quick 15-minute visit, meaning key patterns and past infections—like those that might contribute to long COVID, hypermobile Ehlers-Danlos syndrome (hEDS), postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome (POTS), or mast cell activation syndrome (MCAS)—can go unnoticed.
