In this episode, we have invited Tom, a brave person battling floxed condition. Under Dr. Hugh’s meticulous care, Tom is currently recovering at a steady rate prior to his careful medication. Today, Tom sheds light on the cruelty in the medical world and his resilience to free himself from the shackles of pain and suffering.

Dawn of Tragedy

Tom was involved in an accident at the end of January. A tree branch hit his head inflicting post-concussion syndrome and sinus infection—eventually ruptured his eardrums after four weeks.

He called his family doctor to diagnose his condition and was given a 10-day levofloxacin prescription. He was doing well until he experienced suffering worse than his concussion. He did the responsible thing to go to his family doctor’s office where he was diagnosed as bipolar—he was gaslighted.

Gaslighting is a psychological term where medical professional downplay your symptoms. Tom was not crazy but he was treated as such by the medical personnel. After an arduous defense about his personality for months, he concluded to not talk about any mental health issues with the medical community—he will be regarded as crazy if he does and it will be a glaring mark to his medical history.
Tom went to a doctor from a major university where she was able to alleviate some of his woes. He commended her job but it only went so far. He felt violated talking about her cognitive issues until he was able to find Dr. Hugh—now feeling a lot better.

Consequences
[07:38]
Tom decided to have the power of attorney after he was diagnosed as bipolar. He felt defeated and he could not think clear.

[08:16]

Her wife was overtaxed with work and his condition. It was a stressful situation for both of them, emotionally and mentally. Tom ended up creating a poem—while laying in a dark room.

Lifestyle

[09:52]

Tom’s condition affected his business and personal life. As the months went by, Tom channeled a positive outlook where he made the decision to work towards a healthy lifestyle.

[12:42]

Having a huge plot of land, he went to hike and travel to numerous states. With the help of his friends, he became more productive and active daily.

Stability

[17:58]

Tom cancelled his appointment to a psychologist—he was doing better. He refrained from a psychologist because he does not want to be given another drug that would potentially make things worse. He was already happy and recovering with the assistance of a functional medicine doctor like Dr. Hugh.

[20:25]

With things moving at the right direction, Tom needs more time and he would be better than before the incident.

Spreading the Word

[23:49]

Tom advices to keep things going. Keep trying and don’t stop. Even though it was an uphill battle, Tom was glad that he did not stop. Set your goal and fulfill it!

Resist Temptation

[04:33]

Dr. Hugh’s inner demons tempt him to break his rhythm by telling his mind to unhealthily. It made him conscious of his thoughts and his actions.

Changing the System
