@hjluks Interesting. After my hysterectomy for adenomyosis, I asked my surgeon if a tendon in my hip or leg had been cut because of the relief. She laughed and said no. My periods caused that same radiating leg pain. A reminder of the need for a whole-body approach.

Have you ever had trouble accessing your records?
Wow, this is amazing progress that "we" collectively worked hard to achieve! Neurologic and psychiatric manifestations of MCAS are numerous, but are very rarely talked about in psychiatry or neurology.

We recently interviewed Dr. Larry Afrin, a prominent physician-scientist and one of the world's authorities on mast cell disorders.
Here are 4 surprising things we learned about MCAS...🧵
Tonight the #CNTower will be lit purple for Mast Cell Activation Syndrome Awareness Day / Ce soir, la #TourCN sera illuminée en violet pour la Journée de sensibilisation au syndrome d'activation mastocytaire
🟣 Today is International Mastocytosis & MCAS Awareness Day.
💜 Tonight, the @TourCNTower, @NiagaraFalls, @TheCalgaryTower, @TELUS_Spark will shine purple for a condition that remains vastly under-recognized — Mast Cell Activation Syndrome (MCAS).
🔬Most people think mast cells are only involved in allergies or rare conditions like MCAS or mastocytosis. That’s incorrect.
Research shows mast cells are active in many diseases, including neurodegenerative, autoimmune, infectious, heart, gut, and mental health conditions🧵
