  Hello everyone and welcome to Unity Without Compromise.
• 0:46
  I'm Dr.
• 0:46
  Steve Latoulup.
• 0:48
  Today I am going to begin a new series in the area of pain medicine.
• 0:56
  And if you've never heard of the word central pain, hang on.
• 1:01
  Because if you suffer from fibromyalgia, irritable bowel syndrome, migraines, complex regional pain syndrome, or any other of the types of what I would call mystery pains, well, just stay tuned.
• 1:17
  Because what I'll be sharing in the coming weeks could absolutely change your life forever.
• 1:24
  And I mean that sincerely.
• 1:32
  I am offering no miracle drugs, and I'm going to make no empty promises to you.
• 1:40
  I have nothing to offer you other than just a real heavy dose of sound medicine.
• 1:46
  So I hope you will tune in and really listen to what I have to say because you are not going to hear this stuff anywhere else.
• 1:57
  Now, central pain was my legacy in medicine.
• 2:03
  I have wanted to publish a book on this for over two decades.
• 2:08
  And I've not been able to simply because I was too busy actually practicing medicine and figuring out what exactly is central pain.
• 2:20
  So, in a very real sense, central pain was my legacy in medicine, and it was my highest ministry in medicine.
• 2:30
  Because there's an awful lot of people who suffer from it.
• 2:34
  And almost everybody knows someone who suffers from migraines, IBS, or fibromyalgia, or some of the other syndromes that I will be discussing.
• 2:45
  Now, the content for this series comes largely from my just published book that will be launched on January 20th officially.
• 2:54
  It is titled Pain Free and Living Again, How to Heal Fibromyalgia, IBS, Migraines, and Other Mystery Pain Syndromes.
• 3:06
  Now, just in case you're wondering, let me just tell you that central pain also includes things like complex regional pain syndrome, bladder pain syndrome, formerly called interstitial cystitis, female pelvic pain, phantom limb pain, burning mouth syndrome, some forms of TMJ syndrome or temporal mandibular syndrome, vulvar vestibulitis, and some unfamiliar variants of fibromyalgia syndrome that are not even recognized as fibromyalgia.
• 3:48
  Now, despite these central pain family being one of the most widespread and debilitating forms of pain in all of America and across the globe, central pain remains largely a mystery to both doctors and patients alike.
• 4:10
  You've probably never even heard the term central pain, even though you may suffer from it from some form of central pain syndrome or someone in your family does.
• 4:23
  The story kind of goes like this.
• 4:25
  You say that you hurt, but your doctor cannot explain to you why you're hurting.
• 4:35
  Is it all in your head?
• 4:37
  Has your doctor suggested that to you, maybe?
• 4:41
  And if it's not all in your head, just kind of a made up pain or somebody thinking you're a little bit crazy, well, then where do these unexplainable pains originate?
• 4:53
  Where do they come from?
• 4:55
  Well, doctors still say that the answer is elusive.
• 4:58
  They just claim, look, nobody knows.
• 5:00
  We have no idea what is going on with you and why you have fibromyalgia.
• 5:06
  And therefore, the party line in organized medicine is that these conditions are incurable, and that is the very word that they use.
• 5:18
  Well, after over two decades of closely investigating, trying to figure out and treating central pains in my medical practice, I can say to you with much confidence that they are wrong when they say it's incurable.
• 5:45
  And it is a myth that I intend to fully obliterate through my book and with and on this program.
• 5:53
  Because throughout my medical career, I healed probably thousands of patients.
• 5:58
  You know, I didn't number them, but I have thousands of chart notes from past previous patients, and I've got a record of my success that I actually healed unconable, innumerable central pain patients.
• 6:19
  And when I say I heal them, when I define healing, I mean that they have no more pain, that they are taking no more medications, and they have no more relapses of pain.
• 6:35
  Now, if you like some of my patients, when you first hear those words, if you are suffering now in a really bad way about this, you'll think, oh, yeah, right.
• 6:43
  I've heard this line before, right?
• 6:46
  Or whatever.
• 6:47
  Well, that's okay.
• 6:48
  Uh a lot of people are skeptical about this when they came to me.
• 6:52
  Some of these people were just devastated, they were on the last leg, many of them just ready to end their lives.
• 6:58
  And I said, look, you have a choice.
• 7:00
  Do you want to get this monkey off your back?
• 7:02
  Because if you do, I could absolutely tell them with confidence that we can make this pain go away forever.
• 7:11
  So that's what I really want to share with you today.
• 7:16
  You know, well over a decade ago, I don't know, maybe 15 years ago, I actually submitted a paper to the Practical Pain Management Medical Journal proposing a mechanism for the onset and progression of a group of pain syndromes that I define all as one central pain family.
• 7:38
  And I titled that article, The Missing Link in Pain Theory, question mark.
• 7:44
  I proposed a scientific pathway to explain why people suffer from various kinds of mystery pains that seem to have no visible root cause.
• 7:58
  And in that paper, I actually proposed that limbic inflammation may derive from a common denominator in the limbic brain's varied response to emotional pain.
• 8:13
  If you have no idea what that is, hang on, because I'm going to really make it as clear as crystal for you.
• 8:21
  Now, I argue right from the outset that people suffering from severe emotional pain or stress.
• 8:28
  And it may have been years ago, may have been decades ago.
• 8:32
  But people suffering or having suffered from some form of severe emotional pain or stress may process that sensory input similarly to physical pain.
• 8:43
  And if your brain cannot reconcile and heal that emotional pain in a healthy way, then it can actually be transformed into physical pain via the descending pain pathways to other regions of the body.
• 9:02
  And this is what I consider to be the common thread of central pain.
• 9:07
  So in the paper that I submitted, I also discussed my repeated successful treatment modalities that were eradicating my patient's central pain.
• 9:19
  Now, the medical journal's chief editor, and I won't say his name right now, but he praised my treatment strategy for fibromyalgia.
• 9:27
  He says, you know, I really like that.
• 9:28
  I like what you're doing for fibromyalgia.
• 9:30
  I like your strategy for treating irritable bowel syndrome and these other central pains that I described to him.
• 9:38
  But the editor in chief balked at me wanting to publish my proposed mechanism simply because he was very unfamiliar with the topic.
• 9:49
  And frankly, I think he didn't want to risk an article having uh a description of a mechanism to to turn on a light bulb in an area of pain that is just.
• 10:00
  Completely misunderstood or not understood altogether.
• 10:05
  You know, it was something he knew nothing about.
• 10:08
  And I think that scared him.
• 10:10
  And since describing the mechanism was the main purpose of my article, I retracted my submission.
• 10:17
  I said, forget it.
• 10:18
  I'm, you know, if he wanted to publish how I treat these patients, but he did not feel comfortable with me submitting a mechanism to explain central pain.
• 10:28
  And that is very disheartening to me.
• 10:31
  It was disheartening.
• 10:32
  And that was not, however, the end of the story.
• 10:36
  So about four years later, four complete years later, I am reading this medical journal, the same one that I submitted the article to practical pain management.
• 10:49
  And four years later, I read an essay about central pain in practical pain management that resonated with my previously submitted article four blooming years ago.
• 11:04
  Now, how did that make it in an article?
• 11:08
  I don't know.
• 11:09
  And was this purely coincidence?
• 11:11
  I mean, they took my information.
• 11:14
  What did somebody do something with?
• 11:16
  Well, I have no idea.
• 11:17
  I will never know.
• 11:19
  But having read that article, the author still did not identify the root cause of suffering from undefined pain due to a lack of critical information on pain theory.
• 11:35
  And I'm going to really go out of my way to make this clear to you, to explain it to you in such a way that it's going to make sense to you.
• 11:46
  Because you know, if you suffer from fibromalgia or irritable bowel syndrome, the thing that really gets you discouraged and feeling hopeless, is that you are told, I don't know.
• 11:59
  I don't know what's going on, I can't explain it.
• 12:01
  We don't know, and there is no cure for it.
• 12:05
  Well, I am going to blow that out of the water.
• 12:10
  So I will state at the outset of this series that I'm now starting, that these conditions that torment millions and millions of people across the globe are most definitely not incurable.
• 12:26
  And that is still what the popular narrative claims in medicine.
• 12:31
  And if you don't believe it, I challenge you.
• 12:33
  Look up.
• 12:34
  You know, what's the cure for fibromyalgia?
• 12:37
  Is fibromyalgia treatable?
• 12:39
  Is IBS treatable?
• 12:40
  Is complex regional pain syndrome treatable?
• 12:43
  Is it curable?
• 12:45
  Look it up for yourself.
• 12:48
  And I really challenge you to do this because if you go to any of the major research hospitals' websites and look up these conditions, you know what you're going to find?
• 12:59
  You're going to find the same words like a broken record.
• 13:03
  There is no cure for fibromyalgia.
• 13:07
  There is no cure for irritable bowel syndrome.
• 13:11
  And on and on it goes.
• 13:18
  And here's the best we can do.
• 13:20
  And they propose reasons for it sometimes, but they're way off track.
• 13:26
  They don't know what's going on.
• 13:29
  And well, you know, when they say, oh, the symptoms can only be managed.
• 13:32
  Well, you know, what else would you expect if they don't understand what is going on?
• 13:39
  I suppose that's the best that you can get.
• 13:42
  You have to know what you're treating to make any illness go away, if that is possible.
• 13:50
  And I'm telling you, it is possible.
• 13:52
  And since they don't know what they're treating, then you can understand why they will conclude there is no cure for this.
• 14:04
  Well, there's a reason why they might say that there is no cure.
• 14:10
  In fact, there might be several reasons.
• 14:13
  And I'm going to discuss that in depth next week.
• 14:16
  So I'll get to that, why they are telling you there's no cure for the central pain syndromes.
• 14:24
  Now, just to set the stage for this series, I want you to know that in my early medical career, I actually quickly became actively involved in pain medicine.
• 14:40
  And when I was in medical school, I absolutely loved every aspect of medicine, every discipline.
• 14:48
  You know, when I studied neurology, I wanted to do neurology.
• 14:52
  When I studied gastroenterology, I loved the GI stuff.
• 14:56
  When I studied um, you know, neurobiology, um, I would have loved to have been a neurosurgeon, and on it went in every rotation I did in medical school.
• 15:08
  And so what do you do?
• 15:09
  Well, I thought, you know, I'd get pretty tired of doing just cardiothoracic surgery all day long, heart transplants, whatever.
• 15:17
  I needed a variety, and so I said, you know, I got to become a family doctor and be like one of the old-time docs who did everything.
• 15:24
  So I studied for rural family medicine, and I got an awful lot of training, and I did a lot of different things.
• 15:31
  I was extremely diversified.
• 15:33
  But despite all that, I became very actively involved in pain medicine because, and then by the way, uh I got involved several years later in addiction medicine for the same reason.
• 15:47
  It wasn't because I had this predetermined desire to practice these disciplines in pain or addiction medicine, but it was because I found that the doctors who treated many of my patients did such a poor job in their pain management and addiction uh therapy that I said, I gotta help them out.
• 16:09
  This is horrible what they are doing.
• 16:12
  And nearly all of my patients who were treated for pain and addiction, but I'm sticking with pain right now, they were dissatisfied with their care.
• 16:22
  Their pain was very poorly controlled after years and years of treatment.
• 16:28
  Their quality of life scores were really low compared to the average human being, very low.
• 16:36
  And many of these patients felt defeated, they felt depressed and hopeless, some of them to the point of being suicidal.
• 16:47
  And some of you may feel that way or may have felt that way, or know somebody that has.
• 16:53
  Please listen carefully to what I have to say.
• 16:57
  Many came to me simply because they were told that there was nothing more that could be done for them, but they had heard about me.
• 17:06
  I didn't advertise my pain medicine, I didn't advertise my addiction medicine.
• 17:12
  They heard about my success.
• 17:15
  And now, let me just give you my full disclosure of my own credentials that might even surprise you.
• 17:22
  I was board certified in family medicine.
• 17:25
  I trained in rural family medicine.
• 17:27
  I was practicing solo in a small town called Dallas, Oregon, which is about 20 miles or so west of Salem, Oregon, the capital of the state of Oregon.
• 17:38
  So I was about as diversified as any family physician could be in these days.
• 17:45
  My practice included obstetrics, many dermatologic procedures.
• 17:49
  I think I handled at least 99% of all my dermatology in my practice.
• 17:54
  I did upper and lower GI endoscopy, you know, the upper scopes, the colonoscopies.
• 18:00
  I did extensive psychpsychiatric practice, which greatly aided my addiction practice, and we had no uh psychiatrists locally in our area.
• 18:11
  And there were people in my practice that were so poor they couldn't afford gas to even make it to my clinic hardly, let alone going to Salem.
• 18:20
  And I also treated central pain, and I did it with immense success.
• 18:26
  Now, that didn't come overnight, I'll admit that.
• 18:29
  And let me tell you right up front, I am not a neurosurgeon.
• 18:32
  I am not a neurologist.
• 18:34
  I am not a neuroscientist.
• 18:36
  I don't have a PhD in neuroscience.
• 18:42
  I was not even board certified in pain medicine, and that was because there was no such specialty board that existed during my medical school training.
• 18:52
  So there you have it.
• 18:54
  But as it turned out, that might actually explain my success in discovering what central pain is all about and how to effectively heal it.
• 19:08
  I was dealing with a large subset of pain disorders in my practice that was and still is largely misunderstood.
• 19:20
  Had I been confined to the specialist's medical box, I never would have been able to connect the dots to understand central pain.
• 19:31
  And I'll discuss that in great detail in the weeks to come.
• 19:36
  And although I practiced full spectrum pain management, and by that I that that means that I took care of the patients that were considered rejects.
• 19:45
  Hey, nothing more I can offer you, says the neurosurgeon, the orthopedist, uh, the neurologist, whatever.
• 19:51
  Look, I don't know what's going on.
• 19:52
  There's nothing I can do for you.
• 19:54
  I can't explain your pain.
• 19:56
  And uh a good number of those specialists suggested, hey, go.
• 20:00
  See this doc in Dallas, Oregon, he might be able to do something for you.
• 20:03
  And so they came to me, and I was for many of them their last hope.
• 20:09
  And I soon realized that many of my patients who suffered from these agonizing conditions, such as fibromyalgia, IBS, migraines, uh bladder pain syndrome, female pelvic pain, they had no history of prior physical injury or disease or illness, if you will.
• 20:29
  In other words, they had no recognizable source to a source of trauma to explain the origin of their pain.
• 20:42
  So where does this pain come from?
• 20:45
  Well, I discovered after evaluating hundreds of patients with these conditions.
• 20:52
  And I'll tell you, I'm a stubborn Frenchman.
• 20:56
  I simply had to figure out what was going on just because I cared about these people.
• 21:02
  I wanted to help them get some quality of life back into their own lives so that they could, you know, be happy, enjoy their days, enjoy their family life.
• 21:14
  And what happened is after evaluating a lot of these patients over a couple of years, I saw that there were patterns, repetitive patterns that were present in every central pain patient.
• 21:31
  And I just simply refused to accept the idea that their pain was incurable.
• 21:38
  I just figured, you know, we got to be missing something here.
• 21:42
  There's a reason for this explanation, and I, you know, that that can explain why they have this pain.
• 21:48
  And I had to figure it out.
• 21:50
  And when I saw the patterns recurrent, I said, yeah, okay, if this is happening repeatedly, then we are just missing something.
• 22:00
  And we just need to know what it is that we are actually treating.
• 22:06
  Well, after years, a few years, several years of due diligence in putting the pieces together.
• 22:13
  I figured it out.
• 22:15
  And then I worked out a treatment plan that yielded positive results.
• 22:23
  And the results kept getting better and better and better.
• 22:27
  And then I finally figured out what's going on.
• 22:30
  And as my results improved, as I was learning what was happening, I discovered that some of my patients actually had recovered completely.
• 22:40
  And that went against the grading because initially I believed that these central pains were incurable.
• 22:46
  I I mean, that's what we were taught in medical school.
• 22:49
  That's what the medical literature said.
• 22:51
  So I bought into it.
• 22:53
  I accepted it.
• 22:55
  Only I didn't accept it.
• 22:57
  I just determined to figure out why they developing this pain and why is it persisting forever?
• 23:06
  But I saw in some of my patients that their pain was gone, finally, absolutely gone.
• 23:13
  And then came that nagging question in my own brain, would the pain return again?
• 23:20
  And could I now stop their medications without causing a relapse?
• 23:25
  I wasn't sure.
• 23:26
  I didn't know.
• 23:27
  But I suspected as my mechanism formulated in my brain.
• 23:33
  And so it took about a year, but after about a year, I had my answer.
• 23:39
  And as I tapered patients off of their medications that initially controlled their symptoms, their pain was not recurring.
• 23:49
  Oh, I was excited.
• 23:51
  It's like this is awesome.
• 23:53
  I got this figured out.
• 23:55
  These patients were recovering completely, and their quality of life was returning to back to normal.
• 24:03
  I mean, back to their baseline before they have any of these problems.
• 24:07
  And so next I had to determine something else.
• 24:12
  I had to ask myself, well, if I get them off all these medications, how long before the symptoms recur again?
• 24:22
  How long before they relapse with whatever form of central pain they had.
• 24:30
  And if they had a relapse, under what circumstances would they relapse.
• 24:38
  And of course, since I did not want that to happen, then I had to figure out, I had to get to the core of what initially caused the pain, so that I can not only treat it and make it go away, but guarantee to a patient that it will never come back.
• 24:59
  I had to figure out how to train them so that they never ever again in their life suffered that pain all over, the brain fog, the fatigue.
• 25:10
  You know, the when your hubby squeezes, you give you a hug, it hurts, and you say, Stop that, stop that.
• 25:17
  How do you make that go away and stay gone forever?
• 25:22
  Especially when you're off all your medications.
• 25:26
  Well, in the next few years, I actually did get my answer to that question.
• 25:34
  And then the light bulb finally came on, and I realized that my theory on why and how central pain originates and evolves, had some validity.
• 25:48
  In other words, my mechanism describing what happened, why it happened, how it happened.
• 25:54
  Well, in clinical practice, it held up.
• 25:57
  It worked, and I was very excited about that.
• 26:01
  And like I say, for a long time, I wanted to publish my findings.
• 26:07
  But it's not that easy.
• 26:09
  And this is what I'll discuss next week.
• 26:13
  But after about maybe a decade of discovery, I became sufficiently assured of my treatment methods that I could actually confidently tell any of my patients that came into me for central pain treatment.
• 26:27
  I said, look, we can make this pain go away and stay away.
• 26:32
  So I basically asked them, you want to get this monkey off your back forever?
• 26:36
  Let's do it.
• 26:37
  And I said it with confidence.
• 26:39
  If they were willing to follow my protocol, they would succeed.
• 26:47
  Well, they were pretty excited about that, but let me tell you, they were also pretty skeptical because they had been through the round of specialists.
• 26:56
  They'd been bounced from one specialist to another, one doctor to another without any success whatsoever.
• 27:05
  In fact, most of them got worse with their treatments because the right problem was not being addressed.
• 27:17
  That which was causing the initial insult, if you will, the traumatic affliction affecting the body was not being addressed.
• 27:30
  But I got to the point that I was confident enough to say, look, if you are willing to trust me and follow my protocol, we can make this go away.
• 27:43
  And as you will see in future weeks, let me tell you that some, you know, trusting a doctor to say, look, I can make this pain go away when the patients have been told, no, you're gonna suffer from this all your life, it's incurable.
• 27:57
  Well, that takes an awful lot of trust from a rural country doctor, nonetheless, right.
• 28:06
  But my treatments worked.
• 28:08
  They worked, which means that my theory on central pain, on that mechanism of how central pain originates and progresses was solid, at least in practice.
• 28:24
  And that's all I really cared about, right?
• 28:26
  I care about my patients.
• 28:28
  I don't care about describing uh, you know, the every last minutia or detail of uh of the pathways where this all transpired because then we're getting into heavy neuroscience, neurobiology, and whatever, and medicine, and patients don't care about that.
• 28:48
  Hey, doc, all I want is for my pain to go away.
• 28:51
  Can you do that?
• 28:52
  Well, I said, yeah, I can, and I will.
• 28:57
  And since my methods consistently produced great results, right now I can tell you, I'm convinced that I have discovered the missing link of central pain theory.
• 29:10
  Anyone can heal from central pain.
• 29:14
  Do you believe that?
• 29:16
  If you doubt me, follow through with this series.
• 29:21
  Because I am absolutely convinced, all you have to know is how to do it.
• 29:29
  And to know how to make the pain go away, you have to know what originated the pain.
• 29:37
  If I say anybody can heal from central pain, well, I must know what I'm treating, and I believe I do.
• 29:46
  So I want to actually answer that question for you, but I'm going to take a short break first.
• 29:52
  This is Dr.
• 29:52

• 34:40
  So please join us for that.
• 34:43
  Today I am starting a new series regarding central pain.
• 34:49
  And this is by way of introduction, uh just uh getting you to understand the bane of central pain, because most people have never even heard of central pain.
• 35:03
  They have no idea what it is and what it's all about.
• 35:07
  But if you suffer from irritable bowel syndrome, migraine headaches, fibromyalgia, complex regional pain syndrome, bladder pain syndrome, or interstitial cystitis, as it was formerly called, or female pelvic pain.
• 35:26
  Uh, and a number of other mystery pains where your doctor says, I don't know what's going on.
• 35:33
  Please tune in because I think you will not be disappointed.
• 35:38
  I would ask you to check out my book.
• 35:40
  It's available on Amazon right now, pain free and living again, how to heal fibromyalgia, IBS, migraines, and other mystery pain syndromes.
• 35:52
  The book is available now, although it officially launches on January 20th.
• 35:57
  So I would encourage you to check it out, read it, share it, spread the news because this is New Pain Theory.
• 36:06
  This is uh right on the edge of the frontier in medicine.
• 36:12
  It has not been previously revealed.
• 36:16
  So check out my book, and please, if you deem it worthy, as I am sure you will, please take two minutes and leave me a review because that will help to spread the book further and validate the book.
• 36:30
  I think you will greatly enjoy it, and I think that this is going to resolve a lot of people's pain.
• 36:37
  It's going to alleviate a lot of suffering.
• 36:40
  But having said that, when I talk about treating central pain, what am I really talking about?
• 36:47
  Because as I said, most medical doctors and professionals in any discipline of medicine, they have no clue what it really means when we talk about central pain.
• 36:58
  That's exactly why it's deemed incurable.
• 37:00
  Okay.
• 37:01
  So what are you really treating?
• 37:03
  Well, you are treating, and this is the crux of my theory, my mechanism to describe central pain.
• 37:11
  We are treating limbic inflammation.
• 37:14
  The limbic system is that part of the brain that is involved in various functions.
• 37:20
  Um, but one of those functions that is very pertinent to central pain is the processing of emotional pain, as well as memory and other things.
• 37:32
  It is highly integrated.
• 37:34
  It involves various parts of the brain that uh that you're probably not interested in knowing, but you can look it up.
• 37:40
  Look up the limbic system, and you'll have it there.
• 37:43
  I'm not, I don't have time to get into the anatomy of it all today.
• 37:47
  But wherever inflammation occurs in the body, things go bad.
• 37:53
  You you you get things breaking down, you get scar tissue or fibrosis, and it causes damage.
• 38:00
  It causes problems.
• 38:02
  So when I talk about limbic inflammation, I'm talking about actual real inflammation in the emotional centers of the brain.
• 38:10
  And what does that do?
• 38:11
  Well, as I said, inflammation can lead to scarring if it isn't treated.
• 38:16
  And this is the problem with persistent COVID spike protein, for example, in the blood and tissues.
• 38:22
  It causes multi-organ dysfunction.
• 38:25
  The inflammation from wear and tear on the joints causes osteoarthritis, the wear and tear arthritis.
• 38:34
  And it also is responsible for rheumatoid arthritis.
• 38:38
  And any type of injury that you can sustain in the body causes inflammation.
• 38:44
  So whenever any part of the body is injured, if the injury is not properly healed in a timely sequence, then permanent damage and dysfunction can result.
• 38:57
  And that is going on with limbic inflammation.
• 39:02
  But what about the brain?
• 39:04
  Is it different?
• 39:05
  What do I mean by limbic inflammation?
• 39:08
  And what role does it play in perceiving pain?
• 39:12
  And can the brain actually generate pain or produce pain?
• 39:17
  And if so, how does that happen?
• 39:19
  Does the brain actually become inflamed?
• 39:23
  Well, we've already had some answers to some of these questions.
• 39:26
  We know that there are a lot of neurodegenerative disorders, um, like Parkinson's disease, Alzheimer's disease that actually results from brain inflammation in different ways and in different areas of the brain.
• 39:43
  And we see the end result of that, and it's not pretty.
• 39:48
  But with the answers that we have for that, I want to tell you that the answers are incomplete, and they lack plausibility when it comes to emotional pain specifically.
• 40:00
  Specifically the limbic brain, because they don't explain how central pain happens.
• 40:07
  And that's why they call central pain incurable.
• 40:11
  But I am telling you, they are wrong.
• 40:14
  They are absolutely wrong.
• 40:17
  Many people have never even heard the term central pain.
• 40:22
  But you likely have heard at least heard of some of the conditions that constitute the family of mystery pain syndromes, what I describe as central pain.
• 40:33
  And I call these mystery pain syndromes simply because it involves all the disorders that mainstream medicine calls incurable.
• 40:45
  And I'll say them again.
• 40:47
  They include migraines, fibromyalgia, irritable bowel syndrome, female pelvic pain, bladder pain syndrome, complex regional pain syndrome, some variants of uh of TMJ syndrome, phenomb pain, for example, burning mouth syndrome, vulvar vestibulitis, and there are others.
• 41:06
  There are others that haven't even been remotely considered.
• 41:10
  I won't mention those today, but I probably will mention them a little later on.
• 41:15
  Now, at this point, some of you might be thinking, okay, I've heard this kind of stuff before, right?
• 41:22
  Now I already told you, I'm not selling anything, I have no gimmicks, no miracle cures, no drugs I'm trying to push, nothing.
• 41:31
  I just want you to know the truth, and I want you to spread the truth.
• 41:34
  So you, you know, you might be thinking, oh, yeah, you've got all these answers to everybody's problems right.
• 41:40
  And you're just trying to draw attention or to make a name for yourself.
• 41:44
  Well, let me just reassure you that is not the case.
• 41:48
  It is not true.
• 41:49
  I've had this information for over a decade, but I was so busy in my medical practice that I never got to document my information in the form of the book until I finally stopped treating patients and had a little time.
• 42:04
  So since retiring a few years ago, I finally had time to organize my exploration of central pain into a literary form.
• 42:14
  And now it's available.
• 42:15
  So my only goal now, all I really want to do is reveal my findings so that researchers might pursue this new field of pain medicine.
• 42:27
  And so that the millions of patients who have been told that they are going to have to live with their pain for the rest of their lives will actually have some hope.
• 42:38
  And I assure you, it is a hope that will not disappoint them.
• 42:45
  And so, if all goes well, my methods and my conclusions will become widespread.
• 42:52
  And that's what I'm hoping for.
• 42:54
  So that somebody can just pick up the ball where I left off, so that all the unnecessary suffering will stop.
• 43:03
  That's my only incentive for doing this entire series.
• 43:07
  I want people to know that central pain syndromes are not incurable.
• 43:15
  As so many organizations declare, like Johns Hopkins, like Mayo Clinic, like Cleveland Clinic, the CDC, and every agency that buys into this false dogma.
• 43:32
  I want to expose it.
• 43:33
  I want to obliterate the myth that this is incurable.
• 43:39
  Now, before I go any further, let me just share with you something that I was warned about when I planned to write the book, and I talked to a few other medical doctors, and I said, Look, I've healed all kinds of patients.
• 43:54
  What do they mean?
• 43:55
  Incurable.
• 43:56
  And they said, Oh, oh, be careful.
• 43:57
  These are my colleagues, other medical doctors.
• 43:59
  Be careful.
• 44:00
  You can't use the word cure.
• 44:04
  Well, I said, why is that?
• 44:07
  And I just asked them, why?
• 44:10
  And they said, Well, you just can't.
• 44:12
  I said, well, but why?
• 44:15
  Who said that?
• 44:17
  Well, the more people I asked, the more I realized that this was part of the cancel culture in medicine.
• 44:25
  Those who control medicine nowadays don't want you to use the word cure for reasons.
• 44:34
  Let's just say that.
• 44:35
  Nowadays, organized medicine regards the word cure, C-U-R-E, as a four-letter word.
• 44:45
  Well, it is.
• 44:47
  But they don't like the word cure and cancer, for example, in the same sentence, because if a cure for cancer was found and disclosed, think of the billions or perhaps trillions of dollars that pharma would lose out on, right?
• 45:07
  In that sense, any real medical progress that obviates or makes unnecessary a pharmacological treatment is very bad for big business, for big business medicine.
• 45:23
  And that's why they don't want doctors to use the word cure.
• 45:28
  It's become a dirty word.
• 45:31
  And for that reason, doctors have actually been trained to avoid using the word cure.
• 45:40
  Now I'm kind of a word purist, so I'd like to just you know get into it a little bit, like all right, what how do we define the word cure?
• 45:50
  Now, maybe that's not the motive, though, behind the incurable central pain dilemma.
• 45:56
  Maybe not.
• 45:56
  Maybe it's just a semantics or you know, definition issue.
• 46:02
  So being the purist that I am, the word purist, I just look up the word cure in the Merriam Webster dictionary, and it defines cure as a recovery or relief from a disease, or something like a drug or treatment that cures a disease, or C a complete or permanent solution or remedy.
• 46:26
  Well, that makes sense.
• 46:27
  That's the way we've always used cure.
• 46:28
  That's the way Jesus used the word cure when he speaks of cure in the Bible, healing the sick, the maim, and so forth.
• 46:37
  He used the word cure.
• 46:40
  But that since they don't want you to use that, you know, to discourage the use of this word, what they do is they try to force you to limit what they consider an acceptable definition.
• 46:52
  And to accomplish this, they insist that they insist that cure just means one thing.
• 46:57
  It means only the complete eradication of a disease like polio or smallpox, meaning that if you cure someone, it's impossible for anyone on the planet to ever get polio again or whatever it is.
• 47:15
  So this is word manipulation.
• 47:18
  It is semantics, it's a game.
• 47:21
  Look up the definition of the word heal, and you'll find pretty much the same thing to fully recover from a disease or malady.
• 47:30
  And that is exactly what I mean when I say anyone can heal from central pain.
• 47:36
  And if you can heal from central pain, then it is not incurable, even though they want to try to make you think that by manipulating the definition.
• 47:49
  Central pain can be healed.
• 47:53
  So I use the word healed in the title of my book.
• 47:56
  I use the word healed rather than cure, because I don't want to trip anybody up.
• 48:00
  I just want to get the message out that we can make this pain go away forever, make your medical uh all the medications go away that are treating central pain, and I can reassure you the symptoms will never come back again.
• 48:17
  And that's what I mean when I say anyone can heal from central pain.
• 48:22
  It doesn't mean that others will never develop central pain as though it's been eradicated from the planet, okay?
• 48:29
  It won't, because central pain is a product of being human in our weakness, in our struggles, in the stress that we encounter in daily life, some people are going to encounter central pain.
• 48:42
  Everyone, to some extent or another, is vulnerable to developing it, some more than others.
• 48:49
  Okay.
• 48:50
  And the same is true for influenza, right?
• 48:53
  Or for the common cold viruses like coronavirus, ooh, COVID, rhinovirus, adenovirus, those are the viruses that cause the common colds.
• 49:03
  They've been here for a long time.
• 49:07
  And there's no cure for the common cold in the sense that you're not going to make it go away forever.
• 49:15
  So although the word cure is a formerly recognized synonym of the word heal, it is unacceptable to use the word cure in medicine with regard to central pain.
• 49:28
  All right.
• 49:28
  So it's silly, but I want you to understand how they can manipulate my words.
• 49:35
  But it's part of, it's just part of the oppressive world of medicine that we live in right now under the mutiny of medicine.
• 49:43
  And we are trying to correct that.
• 49:45
  We're making gains every day.
• 49:48
  But we have to define and understand our terms.
• 49:52
  And we need to keep in mind one other thing that I think is very important, and probably people don't realize this.
• 50:00
  Pain medicine as a distinct discipline is still in its infancy.
• 50:06
  Okay, there's a lot we don't understand about pain.
• 50:09
  Progress has been very slow in this field, much slower than it ought to be, in my opinion.
• 50:18
  But the reasons for this aren't hard to ferret out.
• 50:22
  We can understand why if you just want to honestly look at the situation.
• 50:30
  And the reasons are worth understanding.
• 50:33
  Why are we still told in this day and age there is no cure for fibromyalgia or IBS.
• 50:40
  We need to understand the reasons so that we might overcome them.
• 50:44
  For one thing, for the sake of progress in medical research, right?
• 50:51
  And for the sake of the benefits to these pain patients.
• 50:56
  Now I told you I have an awful lot of evidence to support every claim that I will make in this series.
• 51:06
  I am not I'm I'm not trying to paint myself as being anybody super intelligent or just amazingly overqualified and uh, you know, because I have figured something else, something out that nobody else has.
• 51:24
  I'm not saying that at all.
• 51:26
  But I will tell you, I have patients who would absolutely and already have begged me to say, hey, let me let me come on your show, let me go to a pain conference just so that I can give my testimony.
• 51:44
  Because when you told me that I could make you can make, you know, my pain go away, they would say, I thought you were absolutely insane.
• 51:53
  I thought you were crazy.
• 51:55
  And some of my patients only told me that after the fact, after their pain had resolved completely, after they got off all their medications, they admitted finally.
• 52:07
  I thought you were a nut job.
• 52:09
  I thought you were insane, but I had nowhere else to go.
• 52:12
  You were my last hope.
• 52:13
  And so I decided, all right, I'll trust you as you asked me to do.
• 52:18
  So those who followed my protocol, they succeeded.
• 52:24
  And to this day, they still succeed.
• 52:30
  So uh it's something to think about.
• 52:33
  If you have people in your family, friends, relatives who have this sort of pain, well, you gotta listen to this series.
• 52:43
  And I will ask you, please, check out my book.
• 52:48
  It's available on Amazon.
• 52:50
  I'm telling you, you won't be disappointed.
• 52:54
  And please leave me a helpful review, will you?
• 52:57
  Because that helps.
• 52:59
  If you read my book, or if you listen to this complete series that I'm going through right now on central pain, you know what's going to happen?
• 53:08
  You are going to understand these mystery pain syndromes better than 99% of the medical community.
• 53:17
  Because they still don't get it.
• 53:21
  I wrote the book primarily for patients, because that's who I wanted to speak to first.
• 53:29
  And to do that, I had to put things in, you know, get rid of the medical jargon and put them in terms that you would understand.
• 53:39
  And likewise, a lot of you have family members or friends uh who have central pain, who are suffering horribly, who are living miserable lives, isolating themselves because of the syndromes that they suffer with.
• 53:58
  And they haven't been able to find anybody that can treat them.
• 54:03
  I also write my book secondarily for the medical professionals.
• 54:08
  And so I discussed some things, and I will discuss here some medical terms, um, so that physicians can fully understand and appreciate not just you know what I'm talking about, but they need to learn to communicate with their patients.
• 54:26
  And so there's a lot of stuff I'm going to go through.
• 54:30
  And if you listen to this series, for one thing, you're going to know that the incurable narrative is now that now prevails, I mean, throughout organized medicine, is an absolute myth.
• 54:44
  It is not true.
• 54:46
  And you will know beyond doubt that anyone can heal their central pain.
• 54:54
  And then hopefully, when you learn that and accept it and realize that I'm not blowing smoke, hopefully, you'll help spread this truth like wild fire.
• 55:07
  Because now you will know that you have a choice in being healed of your fibromyalgia or your IBS or any other pain syndrome.
• 55:21
  So between now and next week, do your diligence.
• 55:25
  Uh, check out what the literature says about fibromyalgia, about IBS.
• 55:31
  There's a lot of gimmicks out there.
• 55:32
  I'll forewarn you and I'll be discussing that.
• 55:35
  A lot of people, I mean, think about it.
• 55:37
  If you don't know what you're treating, that opens the door for all kinds of scammers to say, hey, I've got something, I've got the cure.
• 55:47
  They can make a buck on it.
• 55:49
  And let me tell you, a lot of people are doing that right now, including medical doctors, MDs.
• 55:58
  They are using the I don't know the mystery of the pain to profit tremendously, giving a false hope to these patients that maybe they will be cured or healed.
• 56:15
  Well, that's all I'll say today.
• 56:19
  I hope you've enjoyed it.
• 56:21
  Next week, uh, I'm going to do some exposing.
• 56:25
  Uh, I've put aside the heavy theology, the heavy politics for a little bit, but we cannot escape it all together.
• 56:31
  You'll see what I mean next week.
• 56:34
  You've been listening to Unity Without Compromise.
• 56:37
  Adu
