Can you decrease inflammation naturally, without stopping medication?

In this in-depth masterclass, Dr. Isabelle Amigues, double board-certified rheumatologist and metastatic breast cancer survivor, explains the science behind the nervous system and inflammation connection.

You’ll learn:

• The relationship between the immune system and the autonomic nervous system
• What the inflammatory reflex is
• How vagus nerve stimulation lowers TNF, IL-6, and inflammatory cytokines
• Why FDA-approved vagus nerve devices are changing autoimmune treatment
• Practical, science-backed techniques to lower inflammation naturally
• How breathing, cold exposure, and mindful movement activate the parasympathetic system

This is not “instead of medication.”
This is about expanding the toolbox.

If you have rheumatoid arthritis, lupus, gout, or any inflammatory condition — this conversation will change how you think about healing.

Hope, driven by science.

Medical gaslighting is one of the most discussed topics in modern healthcare but what does it actually look like?

In this powerful episode of the Unabridged MD podcast, Dr. Isabelle Amigues sits down with Dr. Uzma Khan, psychiatrist, obesity medicine specialist, and menopause expert, to discuss:

• How gaslighting presents in medical settings
• Why women are often told “it’s just anxiety”
• The weight bias problem in healthcare
• Perimenopause and menopause symptoms being dismissed
• How to advocate for yourself effectively
• When it’s time to change providers
• The connection between trust, healing, and outcomes

Dr. Khan shares 4 practical strategies to help patients feel heard and respected in medical appointments, including how to present patterns instead of vague symptoms, how to challenge respectfully, and why being a “reliable historian” is more powerful than being a “Google reciter.”

This conversation dives into obesity stigma, psychiatric medication weight gain, hormone imbalance, menopause symptoms, and the systemic dismissal of women’s health concerns.

If you’ve ever left a doctor’s office feeling brushed off, minimized, or unheard — this episode is for you.

You are the MVP of your healthcare team.

In this episode of Rheumatology 101, Dr. Isabelle Amigues explores a topic that may be even more powerful than medication: mindset.

What’s the difference between cure and remission?
Can your thoughts influence your healing journey?
Why do some patients struggle to tolerate treatment, until something shifts internally?

As a board-certified rheumatologist with over 20 years of experience, Dr. Amigues shares real patient stories about rheumatoid arthritis, remission, and the profound impact of belief, worthiness, and emotional readiness on outcomes.

She explains:

• The difference between remission and cure
• Why some patients unconsciously resist healing
• How mindset affects medication tolerance
• The body–mind communication loop
• Why disease may be a message, not an enemy
• The affirmation that changed her own health journey

If you’re living with rheumatoid arthritis or any autoimmune condition, this episode offers hope: remission is possible and you deserve it.

Repeat with me:
I am healthy and alive.

If you have rheumatoid arthritis, you should NOT be stuck suffering for months without a plan.

In this live, Dr. Amigues explains:
• Why early treatment in rheumatoid arthritis matters
• Why you don’t have to “just tolerate” methotrexate side effects
• What true remission actually means
• Why steroids are NOT remission
• When to switch medications
• How biologics and DMARDs should be adjusted
• The real problem with insurance-based time limits

Too many patients:
– Stay on medications they can’t tolerate
– Stay on prednisone long-term
– Never get a clear remission strategy
– Don’t understand how to taper safely

The goal in rheumatoid arthritis is FULL remission or minimal disease activity, without steroids.

You deserve:
✔ A clear treatment roadmap
✔ A plan to reduce medications safely
✔ Time with your rheumatologist
✔ Real conversations about options

Early, aggressive, and strategic care prevents joint damage, cardiovascular risk, and long-term complications.

Remission is possible but you need the right plan.

What happens when a rheumatologist and a naturopathic doctor sit down to talk about women’s health, hormones, autoimmunity, and the broken insurance model?

In this powerful conversation, Dr. Isabelle Amigues, rheumatologist and founder of direct specialty care in Colorado, sits down with Dr. Erin Ellis, naturopathic doctor specializing in women’s health, to discuss:

• What “root cause” really means
• Why so many women feel dismissed in medicine
• Perimenopause and hormone imbalances

✔️What if your diagnosis isn’t your identity?

In this powerful conversation, a rheumatologist and a holistic health expert dive deep into the truth about chronic illness, healing, and why your symptoms are signals, not definitions of who you are.

Too often, we’re taught to see lab results and diagnoses as permanent labels. But what if they’re actually data points guiding you toward healing?

In this video, we explore:
✨ Why your body is NOT broken
✨ The difference between symptoms and identity
✨ How beliefs about your diagnosis can shape your healing
✨ The connection between the nervous system, inflammation, and chronic illness
✨ Why medicine alone isn’t always enough
✨ How to approach healing from a holistic, root-cause perspective

Whether you’re dealing with autoimmune disease, chronic pain, or unexplained symptoms, this conversation will help you shift your mindset, understand your body differently, and discover new possibilities for healing.

💡 Remember: Your diagnosis is not your prognosis.

Who this is for:
✔️ People with autoimmune conditions (like rheumatoid arthritis, lupus, psoriatic arthritis)
✔️ Anyone struggling with chronic illness or chronic pain
✔️ Those feeling stuck, dismissed, or defined by their diagnosis
✔️ Anyone interested in holistic, integrative, and mind-body healing

• How hormones and inflammation are connected
• Why some patients still feel terrible even when their thyroid labs look “normal”
• The role of iron deficiency, insulin resistance, and other autoimmune diseases
• Symptoms doctors often miss in Hashimoto’s patients

Artificial Intelligence is rapidly transforming healthcare.

From symptom checkers to diagnostic algorithms and predictive analytics, AI tools are becoming more powerful every year.

But can AI actually replace a rheumatologist?

In this video, we explore the real role of artificial intelligence in autoimmune care and rheumatology — including:

• What AI does well
• Where AI falls short
• Why autoimmune disease is uniquely complex
• The importance of clinical judgment
• Pattern recognition vs human nuance
• The future of AI-assisted medicine

Rheumatologic conditions like:

• Rheumatoid arthritis
• Lupus
• Psoriatic arthritis
• Ankylosing spondylitis

require more than lab interpretation. They require context, lived experience, pattern evolution, and understanding the whole patient.

AI can:

✔️ Analyze large datasets
✔️ Recognize imaging patterns
✔️ Flag abnormal labs
✔️ Support clinical decision-making

But it cannot:

✖️ Replace longitudinal relationships
✖️ Interpret subtle symptom evolution
✖️ Understand patient goals and preferences
✖️ Deliver individualized nuance

The future likely isn’t AI versus physicians.

It’s AI supporting physicians — while preserving the human expertise required for complex autoimmune disease.

If you live with autoimmune disease or are curious about the future of medicine, this is a conversation you need to hear.

Adipose tissue (body fat) isn’t just “stored energy”—it’s biologically active and can release inflammatory signals. For people living with inflammatory arthritis (like rheumatoid arthritis, psoriatic arthritis, ankylosing spondylitis, and lupus), that matters because it can influence pain, fatigue, disease activity, and sometimes even how well treatments work.

In this video, Dr. Isabelle Amigues explains the intersection of overweight/obesity and inflammatory arthritis—without shame, and with a focus on what’s actually helpful.

We cover:
Why fat tissue can contribute to inflammation
How weight can affect joints, symptoms, and function
What this can mean for arthritis outcomes and treatment response
Practical, compassionate next steps to support metabolic health and reduce inflammation

Behçet’s disease is a rare inflammatory condition (a type of vasculitis) that can affect multiple parts of the body. Because symptoms can come and go, it’s often missed early.

In this episode, Dr. Isabelle Amigues covers:

• What Behçet’s is
• Common symptoms (recurrent mouth ulcers, genital ulcers, skin lesions, eye inflammation, joint symptoms)
• How it’s evaluated (there’s no single definitive test)
• Treatment basics and what good disease control can look like

Important: If you have eye pain, redness, light sensitivity, or vision changes, seek urgent evaluation.

We cover:
--Common symptoms and patterns (joints, tendons, back pain—and sometimes eyes/skin)
--Typical triggers (often after GI or GU infections)
--How doctors evaluate it and what tests may be helpful
--Treatment options and when to escalate care
--Red flags to take seriously (especially eye symptoms)

New year, new resolutions?
Nope.
Most New Year’s resolutions don’t stick—not because you’re “undisciplined,” but because the plan is usually unrealistic (and built on guilt).
In this video, I share the simple approach I’ve used to actually change my habits for the long term—especially when life is busy and energy isn’t consistent. The result: I genuinely feel younger and healthier now than I did in my 30s.
If you’re ready to build habits that last (not a 2-week reset), this one’s for you.

In this real Q&A, I answer questions from someone newly diagnosed with RA who’s currently taking hydroxychloroquine (Plaquenil). We talk through what “treat-to-target” actually means, why early control of inflammation matters, and how to think about medication fears in a way that’s grounded (not scary).

In this video, we cover:
--What “treat-to-target” means and why timing is a big deal in RA
--Minimal Disease Activity (MDA) vs. “just getting by”
--When Plaquenil may not be enough, and what escalation can look like (DMARDs/biologics)
--How to weigh medication risks against the risks of untreated RA (including long-term steroid use)
--Lifestyle support that helps inflammation (stress, sleep, vagus nerve) — plus why smoking matters

Question for you: What’s the #1 thing you wish someone explained right after your RA diagnosis?

Dr. Isabelle Amigues unpacks why patients often recover better, faster, and more deeply in a supportive group. From mirror neurons and oxytocin to vagus nerve activation and the power of clinician belief, she explains how community and medicine accelerates remission—then previews UnabridgedMD’s upcoming physician-led healing cohorts.

What You’ll Learn:

From competition to collaboration: How traditional, competitive medical training contrasts with the superior outcomes of team-based care—and why adding patients to the care team elevates results.

The brain science of group healing

Mirror neurons: observing others practice skills (e.g., injections, PT) improves your own learning and adherence.

Oxytocin up, cortisol down: group practices (breath, chant, yoga) boost bonding hormones and reduce stress chemistry—fertile ground for recovery.

Vagus nerve / parasympathetic activation: group rituals nudge the nervous system into “rest-and-repair,” lowering inflammation.

Placebo power, reframed: Why clinician belief and a supportive cohort measurably enhance outcomes (a reason trials are double-blind)—and how to harness that effect ethically.

Mindset shapes pain: Attention directs perception; scanning for what’s working reduces pain. Group programs for chronic pain (e.g., back pain) consistently show greater relief and fewer relapses than going solo.

Medication and milieu: Biologics and DMARDs are powerful tools, but outcomes improve further when paired with community practices that activate anti-inflammatory pathways.

Safety, accountability, momentum: Groups create a psychologically safe space to try new habits, show up consistently, and stay on track—especially valuable in rheumatologic conditions.

What’s next at UnabridgedMD: A webinar and physician-led community cohorts designed to help patients reach and sustain remission through evidence-based medical care plus group-based nervous-system and lifestyle practices.

If a trusted group could help you heal 25–40% faster, what habit or symptom would you choose to transform first?

Choosing a health insurance plan can feel overwhelming—especially if you’re living with a chronic illness like inflammatory arthritis. In this episode, Dr. Isabelle Amigues breaks down insurance in simple, practical terms so you can stop guessing and start choosing confidently. She explains how to compare plans, what “max out-of-pocket” really means, and how expensive medications (like biologics) can actually work in your financial favor. If you’ve ever stared at open enrollment options and felt lost, this conversation is for you.

What You’ll Learn in This Episode:

• Who this episode is for
  • When this guidance applies (not for Medicaid; partially for Medicare).
  • How it helps people with chronic conditions, especially rheumatologic diseases.
• Heath insurance basis explained clearly
  • The difference between premium, deductible, and maximum out-of-pocket.
  • Why Dr. Amigues focuses more on max out-of-pocket than on deductibles.
  • Why planning as if you’ll hit your max out-of-pocket can actually protect you.
• Plans for healthy vs. chronically ill individuals
  • When a shared health plan or emergency-only style plan might be reasonable.
  • Why people over ~35 or with chronic conditions should think differently.
• Using high-cost medications to your advantage
  • How biologics and other expensive medications often trigger drug company copay programs.
  • How these copay programs can help you hit your max out-of-pocket early in the year.
  • Why this can mean you pay mostly just your monthly premium while insurance covers more.
• How to compare insurance plans step-by-step
  • Setting up a simple spreadsheet with:
    • Plan name
    • Monthly premium
    • Maximum out-of-pocket
  • Calculating your true annual cost: (12 × monthly premium) + max out-of-pocket.
  • Comparing plans realistically instead of just chasing the lowest deductible.
• If you’re trying to minimize your total costs
  • How some drug companies provide medications for free if you’re uninsured (and why she still recommends having insurance).
  • Why insurance should be viewed as protection and peace of mind, not just an expense.
• Smart ways to invest in your health care
  • Why pairing insurance with direct primary care and direct-care specialists (like Dr. Amigues) often leads to better care and long-term savings.
  • Using tools like GoodRx, Mark Cuban Cost Plus Drugs, and copay programs to reduce medication costs.
• Bonus: Using HSAs strategically
  • How high-deductible plans + HSA can be a tax-advantaged way to prepare for health costs.
  • Why every dollar in your HSA is essentially worth more because it’s pre-tax and can roll over year to year.
• Upcoming free webinar & resources
  • Dr. Amigues introduces her free webinar on the autonomic nervous system and inflammation—how understanding your nervous system can help you reach remission faster.
  • Encouragement to register, ask questions, and use education as a form of empowerment.

If you’ve ever wondered “Which plan should I actually pick?” or “How do my meds affect what I choose?”, this episode gives you a concrete, physician-backed roadmap to make the smartest choice for your health and wallet.

Can a COVID-19 infection flip a hidden switch in your immune system—triggering arthritis or other autoimmune conditions? Dr. Isabelle Amigues explains what she’s seeing in clinic, the science behind post-infection immune shifts, and why treatment and vaccination choices must be tailored to you.

What You’ll Learn:

From infection to inflammation: Real cases of new-onset inflammatory arthritis (rheumatoid, psoriatic) and PMR emerging soon after COVID-19—and how clinicians decide if it’s causation or coincidence.

The “two-hit” model: Genetics and risk factors (family history, smoking, stress, adiposity) can lie dormant until an infection like COVID-19 triggers overt autoimmunity.

Immune overdrive & treatment overlap: Why severe COVID-19 sometimes responds to steroid/IL-6/TNF-blocking therapies—tools also used for autoimmune disease—plus what that tells us about shared pathways.

Treat what’s in front of you: If your labs/exam meet criteria for RA/PMR/vasculitis/lupus, treat per standard rheumatology care—regardless of whether COVID was the spark.

Post-COVID (long COVID) nuance: Dysautonomia, fatigue, exercise intolerance often require team-based care (coaching, nutrition, PT, psychotherapy) to rebalance sympathetic/parasympathetic systems.

Vaccination decisions: Not one-size-fits-all. Context matters—prior reactions, exposure risk, location, and current therapies (e.g., IVIG may already provide community antibodies)—so decide with your rheumatologist.

Science evolves, partnership endures: Cutting through misinformation with clear, individualized education and a strong patient-physician relationship.

What’s next: Details on Dr. Amigues’ upcoming holistic inflammation webinar and group coaching designed to speed remission and build resilience.

If an infection can nudge a predisposed immune system into autoimmunity, which lever will you pull this week to lower baseline inflammation—sleep, stress care, movement, nutrition, or community support?

Early action changes everything. In this episode, Dr. Isabelle Amigues breaks down exactly how timely diagnosis, clear treatment goals, and a physician who actually listens can move patients from painful flares to true remission—without living on steroids.

Topics Covered:

• Why Speed Matters: The “early window” in inflammatory arthritis (e.g., RA) leads to faster remission, fewer erosions, and better long-term outcomes.
• What Remission Really Means: No joint pain/swelling, <15 minutes morning stiffness, normal inflammatory markers, and no fatigue—off steroids.
• Methotrexate (MTX) with a Plan:
  • Start, assess tolerance/efficacy at ~1 month, titrate as needed.
  • If not tolerated (e.g., nausea, hair loss) or ineffective → switch; you don’t have to suffer for 3 months.
• Don’t Get Stuck on Steroids: Prednisone is a bridge, not a plan. Set a taper timeline from day one and confirm remission without steroids.
• When to Add Biologics/Targeted Therapy:
  • If not in minimal disease activity by ~3 months on MTX, add a TNF inhibitor or other advanced therapy.
  • If a biologic isn’t tolerated, switch promptly—don’t wait months.
• Navigating Insurance Without Losing Momentum:
  • Try MTX when appropriate for coverage, but escalate when it’s not working.
  • Use manufacturer bridge programs to avoid treatment gaps while approvals process.
• De-escalation Strategy (Once Stable):
  • First taper steroids, then consider spacing/adjusting advanced therapy.
  • Sometimes a tiny MTX dose helps prevent anti-drug antibodies when tapering biologics.
• Direct Care Advantage: Longer visits, ongoing access, individualized plans, and education that empowers you to understand every step—from ignition (putting out the fire) to maintenance (keeping it out).
• Patient Partnership, Not Gaslighting: You deserve timely referrals, clear goals, and a doctor who respects your input and symptoms.

In this hope-filled episode of the UnabridgedMD Podcast, Dr. Isabelle Amigues sits down with Cliff—a former patient—to trace his journey from sudden, debilitating pain and months of uncertainty to full remission and a return to the life he loves. After being dismissed and delayed elsewhere, Cliff found UnabridgedMD, received an accurate diagnosis of polymyalgia rheumatica (PMR), and followed a clear, compassionate plan: calm the “fire” of inflammation, treat decisively, and taper safely. Within a few months he was off steroids, symptom-free, and cleared to travel to Africa—proof that partnership, precise listening, and a treat-to-target mindset can change everything.

💡 Show Notes — Topics Covered:

The First Signs: Sudden, severe morning pain and stiffness in hands, shoulders, and hips; difficulty lifting arms or walking; classic PMR pattern.

Temporary Relief, No Plan: Prednisone erased symptoms—but primary care tapered rapidly without next steps; NSAIDs did nothing.

The Missing Piece: Months of delays and “arthritis” labels despite negative serologies; wife suspects PMR from research and advocates for a rheumatology referral.

Getting Seen—Fast: UnabridgedMD schedules Cliff within a week (then next-day); Dr. Amigues listens to the story, confirms PMR approach, and sets a remission goal.

Treat the Fire, Then Taper: Short-term steroids to control inflammation plus a disease-modifying plan; thoughtful, stepwise taper off steroids and then other meds.

Full Remission & Freedom: By February 2025, Cliff is off all meds, symptom-free, and cleared for Africa travel vaccinations—no relapse.

Partnership Over Paternalism: Why listening to patient narratives (and even patient research) matters; doctors as guides, patients as partners.

Life After Pain: Retiring the business, reclaiming energy, and re-prioritizing what matters—time, travel, and health.

Practice Model Insight: How more time in a direct-care setting supports precise diagnosis, fewer meds, and better outcomes.

Hope for Others: Many inflammatory conditions can reach remission with the right plan; don’t give up and don’t be afraid to seek a second opinion.

Did you know the trillions of microbes in your gut might shape everything from your immune system to your mental health—and even how you recover after an infection? 🌱

In this episode of the UnabridgedMD Podcast, Dr. Isabelle Amigues welcomes Dr. Katrina Coulter, infectious disease specialist, to explore the fascinating world of the microbiome. Together, they dive into the overlap between infectious disease and rheumatology, the hidden consequences of antibiotic use, and the complex challenges of post-Lyme disease, chronic fatigue, and long COVID.

This conversation blends cutting-edge science, clinical wisdom, and practical advice—from why fiber is the #1 nutrient most of us are missing, to how farming practices affect our gut health, to why listening to patients is still the most powerful diagnostic tool.

If you’ve ever wondered whether your gut health could hold the key to remission and resilience, this episode is for you.

• 🚜 How industrial farming practices mirror what’s happening to the human microbiome
• 💊 Antibiotics: when they’re life-saving, when they’re harmful, and why shorter courses often work best
• 🥗 The truth about probiotics—pills vs. probiotic foods (sauerkraut, kombucha, miso, fermented veggies)
• 🧼 Are we too clean? The “sandbox effect,” farm kids, and why exposure to microbes builds resilience
• 🧠 Post-infectious syndromes explained: post-Lyme, long COVID, and why the immune system—not infection—drives symptoms

After two pregnancies—and nearly a year of feeling like she had the flu every day—Morgan (a pediatric cardiology professional and mom of two) was told “labs look normal.” Still, she had daily joint pain, low-grade fevers, shortness of breath, chest pain, dramatic weight loss, GI issues, and profound fatigue. In this raw and hopeful conversation, Dr. Isabelle Amigues shows what happens when a doctor truly listens, investigates beyond the surface, and aims for full remission—not 80%.

If you’ve been dismissed, told to “wait it out,” or lost in the system, this episode is your proof: there is a path forward.

What You’ll Learn

• Postpartum red flags beyond “just thyroid”: when “normal labs” miss the full story
• Why low-grade daily fevers + severe fatigue should never be dismissed
• The role of imaging and targeted therapy (incl. biologics) in speeding relief
• How mindset + clear plans (aiming for remission, not “good enough”) change outcome
• The difference time and listening make vs. quick, paperwork-driven visits
• Practical ways to protect your energy and rebuild life after chronic symptoms
• Why second (and third) opinions can be life-giving—and how to advocate for yourself

Key Topics Covered

• Morgan’s postpartum timeline: thyroiditis after baby #1 → much worse after baby #2
• The “normal labs” trap: significant symptoms with reassuring bloodwork
• Daily life on empty: parenting with profound fatigue, dizziness, and chest symptoms
• The turning point: fevers as the objective sign that demanded deeper workup
• What felt different at UnabridgedMD: time, validation, a plan, and hope
• Treatment philosophy: aim for 100%, iterate quickly if the first med isn’t “the one”
• Mindset matters: keeping hope without denying reality (Isabelle’s oncology lesson: “We’re going for cure.”)
• Health system realities: too little time with patients, too much admin, and how listening saves time (and lives)
• Self-advice in hindsight: don’t settle and guard your energy
• Joy returns: biking with kids, cooking, reconnecting—and rock climbing again

In this episode of the UnabridgedMD Podcast, Dr. Isabelle Amigues sits down with Holly Gould to share her remarkable story of struggle, perseverance, and healing. After seeing more than a dozen doctors who couldn’t provide answers, Holly felt she might never find relief. She recalls telling her husband, “If this person can’t help me, I’ll just have to live like this.” Out of options, she turned to Google—and that search led her to Dr. Amigues.

Together, they explore what it means to be truly heard in a medical setting, how documenting every symptom—big and small—was key to unlocking proper treatment, and why compassionate follow-up, like Dr. Amigues’ personal check-in call one week later, made all the difference. Holly describes how the right medication helped her day-to-day pain and how, for the first time in years, she sees a hopeful path toward remission.

The conversation also highlights Dr. Amigues’ philosophy: “Sometimes you can be a lot better, but it’s not perfect. I want more than just a lot better.” For her, remission is always the goal—and fighting for her patients means never settling for less.

Whether you’re living with chronic illness, searching for a doctor who truly listens, or simply looking for hope in the healing journey, this episode offers compassion, empowerment, and a reminder that doctors who care are doctors who heal.

Topics Covered:

• Why being truly heard matters in patient care

In this heartfelt episode of UnabridgedMD: Stories of Hope, Dr. Isabelle Amigues is joined by Stacy—a patient, medical professional, and fierce self-advocate—who shares her powerful story of persistence through years of being dismissed by providers despite debilitating symptoms.

Stacy opens up about the emotional toll of being told “you’re fine” when she clearly wasn’t, and how trusting her intuition ultimately led her to the right care. With a deep background in medicine, Stacy reveals how the system’s fragmentation, lack of holistic care, and quick-to-dismiss attitudes made the journey frustrating and isolating.

💡 Topics Covered:

The danger of gaslighting in medicine—especially for women

The limits of siloed care and the power of integrative diagnosis

Why listening—really listening—is the physician’s most powerful tool

How intuition, grit, and self-advocacy can guide healing

What’s missing in today’s healthcare system (hint: it’s more than time)

Why hope and whole-person care must be part of the medical conversation

🎧 Whether you're a patient who’s felt dismissed or a clinician who wants to do better, this episode is a beautiful reminder: you know your body, and you deserve to be heard.

Welcome back to the UnabridgedMD Podcast, where hope is driven by science.
In this deeply personal and emotional episode, Dr. Isabelle Amigues speaks with Lisa, a longtime patient and now dear friend, about her courageous journey through multiple chronic autoimmune conditions—including the rare and complex Behçet’s disease.

Lisa shares what it felt like to be dismissed, misdiagnosed, and told her symptoms were “all in her head”—until a friend connected her with Dr. Amigues. From that first phone call, a partnership in healing began.

Together, they navigated layers of complexity, multidisciplinary care, and moments of despair—but also discovered answers, regained quality of life, and cultivated lasting hope.

In this episode, you’ll hear:

Lisa’s experience of being gaslit and misdiagnosed for years

How a rare autoimmune disease disrupted her career as an ER nurse

The emotional impact of “invisible illness” and being told she looked too healthy to be sick

Why early diagnosis and a collaborative care approach matter deeply

Dr. Amigues’ reflections on listening, belief, and how hope begins with being heard

A message to anyone living in doubt: you deserve to be taken seriously

💬 "You told me it wasn’t all in my head—and that’s where the hope began." — Lisa

Welcome to another inspiring Coexist Meeting hosted by Dr. Isabelle Amigues, your friendly rheumatologist in Denver, Colorado! In this episode, we’re joined by the incredible Yota from Mati Fenuee to explore the ancient Chinese art of Feng Shui (Fenue).

Learn how the energy of your space can impact your well-being and how to harmonize it using the five elements: fire, metal, water, wood, and earth. Watch as Yota works with two volunteers to transform their spaces and share practical tips you can apply at home.

🛋️ Curious about Feng Shui? Discover how balancing your environment can bring peace and energy into your life!

~More about Yota~

Hi, I’m Yota, the founder of Mati Feng Shui. https://www.matifengshui.com/
I help people align their space with their spirit.

Feng Shui completely shifted my life. It helped me find clarity and calm during a time I felt stuck, and I realized just how much our environment reflects what we’re carrying inside.

That’s why I started Mati Feng Shui. Mati means “eye” in Greek, a symbol of protection, clarity, and insight. My goal is to help people see their space in a new way and use it as a tool to support real change.

When I work with clients, it’s not just about moving furniture or making things look nice. We look at what’s going on emotionally, what the energy in the space is saying, and how we can shift things to support what you actually want, whether that’s peace, love, success, or simply feeling more at home.

Your space has a story. I’m here to help you change the energy and write a new chapter.

Want to live longer and healthier with fewer medications? Join Dr. Isabelle Amigues and renowned internal medicine expert Dr. Michael Benoit as they dive into the science of longevity and health optimization.

Don't miss this engaging conversation packed with practical advice for living your best life!

~About Dr. Micharl Benoit~

www.paradigmdirecthealth.com

Michael Benoit, MD received a Bachelor's of Science in Health Exercise Science at the University of Oklahoma and graduated with his Medical Degree from the University of Oklahoma Health Sciences Center. He completed his residency in Internal Medicine in Denver, CO before starting work as an outpatient internal medicine physician.

At the start of his career, Dr. Benoit worked in conventional primary care outpatient clinics for large healthcare systems. Ever curious to find the best way to serve patient's needs, he has explored careers in urgent care, veteran affairs clinics and telehealth companies. Realizing that the traditional health care model was largely reactive, rushed and cumbersome for both patients and physicians, Paradigm Direct Health was started in early 2024 to improve the care and experience in the primary care setting. In 2025, he was nominated by his peers as a Castle Connolly Top Doctor in Internal Medicine.

When he’s not focused on his patients, Dr. Benoit enjoys exploring the world, staying curious and spending time in nature with his wife and two daughters. He regularly attempts to explore consciousness through meditation, optimize his health with regular exercise and read both fiction and non-fiction books.

While attending medical school in Phoenix, I knew right away I wanted to care for everyone of all ages, or “womb to tomb and everything in between” as some say. As a family doc, I also work in rural emergency rooms and various hospitals in the area to keep the skills sharp. I have a passion for using lifestyle and food as medicine, and you will probably get tired of hearing me say “life is motion and motion is medicine”.

Let's discuss the difference between rheumatoid arthritis and osteoarthritis, and how we diagnose them! This week, we are highlighting an episode from Dr. Amigues’ live stream series, Rheumatology 101.

Rheumatoid arthritis is an inflammatory autoimmune disorder that affects the joints and can also impact other organs. It is characterized by morning stiffness, joint swelling, and symmetrical joint involvement. Osteoarthritis, on the other hand, is a wear and tear condition that primarily affects the joints. It is worsened by joint use and is associated with the development of osteophytes. The diagnosis of these conditions is based on clinical symptoms, serological markers, and imaging. Treatment involves managing inflammation and aiming for remission in rheumatoid arthritis, while addressing pain and joint damage in osteoarthritis.

This week, we are highlighting an episode of Rheumatology 101, Dr. Amigues' educational YouTube channel. Learn all about positive ANA and what that means! Dr. Amigues explains a positive ANA (antinuclear antibody) test means and its significance in diagnosing autoimmune disorders.

TAKEAWAYS
- A positive ANA test indicates the presence of antinuclear antibodies, which are autoantibodies that target components of our own cells.
- The titer of the ANA test indicates the concentration of antibodies in the blood, with higher titers suggesting a stronger immune response.
- Different types of ANA, such as homogeneous, speckled, nucleolar, and cytoplasmic, can provide clues about the underlying autoimmune disorder.
- A positive ANA alone does not provide a specific diagnosis of an autoimmune disorder, and further testing for specific autoantibodies is necessary.
- Infections, medications, and age can also cause a positive ANA, and additional evaluation may be needed to determine the underlying cause.

This week, we are highlighting an episode of the Dr. Francavilla Show! Dr. Francavilla interviewed Dr. Amigues to discuss obesity, rheumatologic conditions, and medications like GLP-1 and steroids.

Obesity is often linked to rheumatologic conditions (inflammatory or infectious conditions of the joints and other parts of the musculoskeletal system) and joint pain. This episode covers this connection, exploring how excess weight can impact these conditions. We also discuss the effects of weight loss medications on such conditions and the powerful impact of stress reduction techniques on healing both the mind and body.

In this discussion, Dr. Amigues also highlights the importance of the parasympathetic system in healing, contrasting it with the stress-induced fight-or-flight response.

Whether you're a parent concerned about your child's allergies or an allergy sufferer seeking relief, this episode promises to broaden your understanding and bring hope about available treatments!

Dr. Gina Dapul-Hidalgo is a board-certified pediatric and adult allergy and immunology specialist, and she explains what allergies really are: the immune system's overreactions to typically harmless substances in the environment. She and Dr. Amigues discuss the different types of allergies, how antibodies work, and the effect of environment on allergies.

Dr. Dapul also dives into allergen immunotherapy (desensitization), one of the oldest and most helpful methods for treating allergies. You've probably heard of allergy shots; these can decrease the sensitivity to allergens, reduce the need for medication, and are the closest thing to a cure for allergies!

We'll end on a discussion about TH1 and TH2 cells, and the benefits of exposing children to dirt and germs for a resilient immune system. Getting dirty in nature is good for us! 🌼🌱

Dr. Gina Dapul-Hidalgo is a board-certified pediatric and adult allergy and immunology specialist in the Washington DC metropolitan area. She is the founder and owner of Family Center for Allergy and Asthma in Montgomery County, Maryland, and her mission is to provide the highest quality, personalized, and compassionate care for patients and families affected by allergies and asthma in her local community. Find her at www.dapulallergy.com.

I recently came across a short article in Nature (one of the leading scientific journals) about some increasingly convincing evidence of anti-inflammatory effects of the GLP-1 Agonists. You know these by the name of Trulicity, Weegovy, Mounjaro or Zepbound. In addition to helping with diabetes and obesity, we are finding that they have their own anti-inflammatory effects. Should we use them in inflammatory arthritis?

In this episode I go over some of the health issues associated with cellphone use and my own experience to get rid of my addiction.

I never would have thought I’d be a 5AM club member! I’m one of these people who push snooze over and over again. In fact, even my daughter complained that she was tired of listening to the 15 different alarms that I had every morning. If you’re like my old me, this episode is for you!!!

In less than 21 days I’ve gone from sloth in the morning to the most happy calm and grounded person! And this even in the early morning. It takes me one ring, maybe even less than that to wake up and start my morning routine.

In this episode of UnabridgedMD I deconstructed what I am doing so that you can also do it and become a member of the happy 5AM club!

When my good friend Dr. Amen Sergew and I started discussing how to improve the care of our patients, we were clear that one of the important aspects of improvement should be to elevate our own spirits. As many of you know, Doctors are hurting now more than ever.

A year ago, we came up with the idea of creating an open and diverse community where we would learn from each other. We called these meetings "CoExist". They happen about every 6 weeks and the level of trust, sharing, vulnerability, and courage from every single speaker as well as every member continues to blow my mind.

Yesterday Amen talked about her experience as a pulmonary doc caring for hospitalized patients during the heights of Covid19 in NYC and LA and how it made her pause and look at what was important for her in her life. She then made the courageous decision to let go of her academic life. She was a superstar and one of these docs that made working at this institution a pleasure. Well, she still is a superstar, but took off on her own path and is now more in tune with what she wants to do in the world. Her story is inspiring.
So were what the attendees shared after.

I am so grateful to be surrounded by amazing human beings and to continuously meet more people that inspire me. This group is one of a kind and I am so thankful for everyone that is willing to be part of it.

Listen to her in this episode of UnabridgedMD.

Dr Saimun and I have a great discussion about auto-inflammatory syndromes. They look and present very similarly to auto-immune disorders but have different cause.Take a look and listen for some highly valuable information. Let us know if you have any questions!

Dr. Saimun Singla is a triple board-certified physician that specializes in pediatric rheumatology and integrative medicine. Her story is unique because she was diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis AFTER becoming an attending rheumatologist, a journey which led to a few career pivots.

Her pain points as both a patient and doctor led her to found Rheum to Grow, a private medical practice in Houston, TX. She blends conventional rheumatology with integrative medicine to help children with autoimmune conditions achieve faster disease control, less disease flares, less reliance on pharmaceuticals, and realistic coping strategies to build resilience in the face of life-long illnesses.

Dr. Singla lives in Houston with her husband and three very active school-aged children. She not only loves taking care of her patients, but also encourages other female physicians to carry out their true passions and avoid burnout in medicine.

In this episode of  @unabridgedmd4330 I respond to an important question: How do we make sure we get out of any physician's office with hope?
As many of you already know, the medical community is hurting and many doctors have left the field completely. The ones that are left are exhausted. The result is that many physicians may be short or even completely disengaged when they see patients.
In this episode I share some ways to prevent this and make sure that you truly love your interaction with your physician and get the care you deserve.

We are currently accepting new patients at our UnabridgedMD in rheumatology practice. You can come see us in Person (in Colorado) or via telehealth for anyone in Colorado, Wisconsin and Michigan. More states to be added soon. Stay put!

This was such a great conversation!! Why is contraception such an important topic in patients with systemic Lupus erythematosus (SLE) and Antiphospholipid syndrome (APLS)? Which contraception to choose? And why you shouldn't settle on "this is my normal".

Dr. Taiwo Durowade is a board certified obstetrician/gynecologist who has been practicing in the South Suburban area of Chicago for the past 5 years. She obtained her B.Sc. in Biochemistry and Molecular Biology at ISU in 2009. She went on to obtain her M.D. at the University of Illinois College of Medicine, followed by residency in Obstetrics and Gynecology in Ann Arbor, Michigan. She returned home to the South Suburban area of Chicago to provide personalized care to the women she wanted to serve – women with whom she could relate and whose issues resonated with her. Dr. Durowade is interested in preventive medicine because it helps women lead healthier lives. She started her own private gynecologic practice in January, 2022 – Dardur Gynecology – in order to better achieve this goal. Dr. Durowade believes information is key and she enjoys educating her patients, which is why she created a show titled “Un-common Knowledge” on her YouTube channel, where she shares information that should be common but remains uncommon, with her subscribers and the social media community at large. Dr. Durowade enjoys traveling, spending time with her family, and watching K-dramas.

Join me today in a very informative discussion with rheumatologist and life coach Dr Liz Rook. We talk about how mindset really is the core of all things health. How you can tap deep inside you to get the results you really need to live your best life.

——

Liz Rook, DO, MPH, MA is a life coach and rheumatologist. She is passionate about empowering women to thrive by helping them release stress, develop emotional resilience, rock healthy habits, set and smash goals, and enjoy joy daily. Her mission is to help 100,000 women using this essential knowledge by teaching these tools to women everywhere. She equates herself to a personal trainer for thoughts, habits and emotions.

She has spent the last 12 years helping thousands of patients and clients with lifestyle changes while unlocking the power of their own minds. She focuses her work with clients using tools and a unique 3 step methodology to develop self-awareness, allowance, and acceptance to solve for the root cause of dis-ease. This innovative approach creates new neural pathways in the brain and simplifies both mindset shifts and habit change.

She has a free guide on her website (thrivearena.com) and also shares life-changing content on her podcast, Reclaim Your Brain.

Her passion was born out of 30+ years of overeating to cope with life and avoid conflict. She identifies as a recovering type-A perfectionistic people-pleaser. She understands her clients’ struggles intimately and harnesses compassion, education and humor to guide clients as they tap into their own inner wisdom to thrive with integrity and alignment (which feels like a huge warm loving hug).

Liz grew up on the east coast and was a competitive gymnast through college. She toured the U.S. during her educational pursuits and now is happy to call beautiful Western Colorado home. In her spare time, she enjoys reading, baking, Crossfitting, snowboarding, jogging and hiking, and adventuring outdoors with her hunky husband and inquisitive dog, Buttercup.

Happy new year!
In this first episode of Season 2 of #UnabridgedMD, we talk disease remission in rheumatology. What it is, what it means, how to achieve it, and why it means so much more than just having no more joint pain.

Did you know that your heart is most likely also inflamed when you have active inflammatory arthritis such as Rheumatoid Arthritis? Did you know that patients with chronic inflammatory arthritis that are not fully controlled have more cardiovascular disorders and also more risk of cancer?

Let's learn about this and chose to invest in our health.
