In this episode of Take a Pain Check, we’re joined by  @DrAndreaFurlan , a physician, researcher, educator, and YouTube star who is transforming the way we understand and approach chronic pain. From her early days studying medicine in Brazil to becoming one of Canada’s foremost pain experts, Dr. Furlan shares her personal journey with chronic pain, explains the differences between nociceptive, neuropathic, and nociplastic pain, and uncovers why so many patients are misdiagnosed and what we can do about it. We also explore the inspiration behind her latest book, the impact of her viral YouTube content, and how she makes cutting-edge science accessible and empowering for patients worldwide.
