It’s Not a Mystery Illness - The Hidden System Patterns Behind Fatigue Brain Fog and Chronic Symptoms with Dr. Christian Jenski | Stress | E122
Episode 122
Monday, 23 February, 2026
What if so-called “mystery illnesses” are not mysterious at all, but the result of multiple systems being overwhelmed at the same time?In this episode of Made for Health, Dr. Aaron Hartman is joined by Dr. Christian Jenski to explore a growing category of conditions often labeled as “mystery illnesses.” While the symptoms may seem confusing or unrelated, these complex cases often share common underlying drivers such as chronic infections, mold exposure, environmental toxins, immune dysfunction, and nervous system dysregulation.Together, they explain why many patients with chronic fatigue, brain fog, anxiety, digestive issues, or unexplained symptoms often fall through the cracks of conventional medicine. This conversation highlights the importance of clinical curiosity, whole-person thinking, and understanding the connections between body systems to uncover root causes and help patients finally move forward in their healing journey. Key Topics CoveredWhy “mystery illness” is often a systems problem, not a mysteryThe role of chronic infections like Lyme, Epstein-Barr, and tick-borne illnessesHow environmental exposures such as mold and toxins contribute to chronic symptomsWhy conventional medicine struggles with complex, multi-system conditionsThe concept of being the “specialty between specialties” in functional medicineHow nervous system symptoms like anxiety, brain fog, and fatigue can signal underlying immune dysfunctionCardiovascular and autonomic symptoms including POTS, dizziness, and heart rhythm changesDigestive symptoms such as bloating, constipation, diarrhea, and organ inflammationThe connection between immune activation, swollen lymph nodes, and chronic viral reactivationHow layered triggers (stress, infection, toxins) create a domino effect in chronic illnessFollow Dr. Aaron Hartman and Richmond Integrative & Functional Medicine🌐 Website: https://richmondfunctionalmedicine.com/📺 YouTube: @AaronHartmanMDMentioned in this episode:Get Dr. Hartman's New Book - UnCURABLEIf you’ve been let down by the system, you’re not alone — and you’re not powerless.
