Mast Cell Matters: Deep dives on MCAS with Tania Dempsey, MD - Presented by The POTScast

Dr. Todd Maderis is a naturopathic physician in Marin, CA, who began his career in environmental medicine and now specializes in helping complex patients by searching for the root causes of their illness.  He and Dr. Dempsey discuss their hypotheses about how and why some patients can get so sick, their favorite newer tests and treatments -- including genetic testing, SOT, phosphatidylcholine -- and how excess fibrin production may contribute to excessive blood coagulation and biofilms that help infections hide from treatment.  And much more!  Drs. Maderis and Dempsey cover a wide range of topics and compare notes on their approaches to helping the most complex patients. Dr. Maderis's website and blog is here.
