https://swiy.co/WhatAreYourThoughts
Welcome to this week's Pediatric Meltdown Podcast, where host Dr. Lia Gaggino invites guests Dr. Bruno Chumpatazi and Dr. Amanda Deacy to unravel the mysteries behind chronic symptoms in children. Together, they delve into the complexities of post infectious IBS, highlighting the multifaceted causes that contribute to these symptoms. From altered pain perception and processing to the potential role of inflammation, the experts leave no stone unturned. Discover how food sensitivities, the microbiome, and seasonal allergies come into play in shaping the experience of chronic symptoms. Join us as we explore the multidisciplinary treatment plans, focusing on non-pharmacological interventions like relaxation training and cognitive behavioral therapy. It's time to gain a better understanding and listen, learn, and advocate for the multidisciplinary support and resources that these children and their families desperately need. Together, we can make a profound impact on their journey towards wellness.

Key quotes for Twitter:
"I think what we bring to the table now, different than when I started, is kind of a refined conceptualization that I think really more accurately depicts why these conditions develop and why they are maintained."... Dr. Amanda Deacy on a multidisciplinary approach in managing pediatric pain
"Unfortunately, these tend to be unregulated, in terms of, we don't have an FDA stamp of approval saying that this is a legitimate product that's well sourced, that has been processed and made very well, and that dosing that you're seeing on that bottle or on that tea bag is appropriate…. I wish we could say that."... Dr. Bruno Chumpatazi on Alternative Medicines and Safety
