SPEAKER_01

Doc and Carolyn Podcast, episode 127, now in progress.

SPEAKER_05

Welcome back.

SPEAKER_01

We have been it's it's been quite the week. Um for you especially. Truehealinghealthcare.net is starting to get some attention. You're picking up more patients. And you had uh well first of all, hi.

unknown

Hi.

SPEAKER_01

I always forget, I jump right in, man. I I put it in drive and I just go.

SPEAKER_05

I know, you act like I'm not even over here.

SPEAKER_01

Doc Gilgore here. If you just punched in, I always assume that we pick up new listeners. Uh I was I was in broadcasting for many years and was on big radio stations in big cities. And uh God Almighty, Yeshua, Jesus, the Messiah, Christ, uh led me out of broadcasting because of the music, quite frankly. And uh I've done a show on that before, and I'll probably do another uh about how uh the Lord took me out of it and kind of pointed out your music is important. What you listen to matters, what you consume, what you hear matters. Anyway, that's part of my testimony. I got out of the radio business, and the Lord led me into policing, which I did for 25 years. I'm a retired police officer and sergeant and did patrol work, uh, a lot of undercover drug work. I was a sergeant in the gang enforcement unit of the Cincinnati Police Department. So been around the uh been around the horn a few times.

SPEAKER_05

Around the old block.

SPEAKER_01

Around the old block, right. My wife is Carolyn Kilgore, she's a nurse practitioner, um, independent private practice owner. I wanted you to talk a little bit about your victory. You had a patient this week that had a big win uh on blood pressure, and it had nothing to do with pharmaceuticals, nothing to do with you know, pharmaceuticals have a place. They they they should be prescribed for certain things.

SPEAKER_05

Yes, they are. There is a purpose and there is a place for pharmaceuticals. The hope is always to, if you have to take them, to correct whatever caused you to need them so that you can stop taking them at some point.

SPEAKER_01

And you and you prescribe in your practice. Yes. So but you had a big victory without farms, without pharmaceuticals. Like one of your patients that I did. You're happened to be married to. That's right. So so tell me, so my blood pressure before, what was my blood pressure really, really bad before?

SPEAKER_05

Your blood pressure was very concerning for me, but because you are um what's a nice word? Is because you're kind of stubborn, you uh would never even let me check it, much less do anything.

SPEAKER_01

All these little you we don't need all them little side streets. Let's stay on the main highway.

SPEAKER_05

I'm telling the whole story here.

SPEAKER_01

Okay.

SPEAKER_05

Because your response was always, listen, I'm doing all the things I need to do. So wait, and I'm not gonna take any medication, so there's no point.

SPEAKER_01

I don't think I said all that.

SPEAKER_05

Yes, you did. Yes, you did.

SPEAKER_01

Let's get to the victory.

SPEAKER_05

So the victory is you really started doing what you needed to do.

SPEAKER_01

I I I just started kind of following you you cook for me, and that's one of, you know, this is this makes it a lot easier, but you but what what you cook well, no, what you cooked for yourself, I ate.

SPEAKER_05

Yes.

SPEAKER_01

You would cook for yourself and then you cook for me. Yes. And and I worked out every day. Then and I do now. I work out every day.

SPEAKER_05

You do.

SPEAKER_01

But you took my blood pressure the other day just out of the blue. What even made you ask?

SPEAKER_05

Well, because you've lost so much weight, you've um there's I don't see I lost fat.

SPEAKER_01

I haven't, I don't I haven't lost a lot of weight, but I've get put on some muscle.

SPEAKER_05

Yeah, you've lost inches. Like you've gone down multiple belt sizes, your pants are too big, your shorts are too big, your shirts are too big. Yeah. Um, so you've lost a lot of inflammation also. And I just wanted to see what it was.

SPEAKER_01

And so you took the pressure and I was very happy. Yeah.

SPEAKER_05

So happy.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, I mean, uh, it's something that runs in my family, I think. Uh, I was being a little hard-headed about it. And um, but but working with you, uh, first of all, I just I I adore you. I mean, you're a nice person to be around. So if you're going to have a practitioner, would you give the advice it's probably best to marry her?

SPEAKER_05

No. I'm already married. I'm Carolyn Kilgore, founder and provider at TrueHealing Healthcare.net.

SPEAKER_01

Why functional medicine?

SPEAKER_05

Because you're more than just a list of symptoms. Traditional care often masks the problem, but functional medicine digs deeper to find the root cause.

SPEAKER_01

What makes true healing healthcare different?

SPEAKER_05

We move away from the one size fits all approach. We look at your environment and your lifestyle to create a roadmap tailored specifically for you.

SPEAKER_01

What if someone really wants to make a change?

SPEAKER_05

If you're tired of feeling fine and want to start feeling great, it's about proactive wellness, not just reactive treatment.

SPEAKER_01

What's the deal with telemedicine?

SPEAKER_05

As long as you're 18 and have an internet connection, you can have a visit in the privacy of your own home or anywhere else in Texas. We're able to order labs or prescribe or whatever else you need.

SPEAKER_01

True Healinghealthcare.net for the great state of Texas. I have a basic question. We were on the ship. We're watching the Broadway production, off this will be off Broadway, production of Mamma Mia. I think that's from 2008. But we saw the live show on Allure of the Seas on the cruise ship.

SPEAKER_05

We always try to go to the live theater. Performances, yes. I love those.

SPEAKER_01

So we're watching the show two years ago. Easy peasy. We watched the show, we enjoyed the songs, the music. If you know the group ABBA, they're they're they're featured. I don't know any of their music except the songs that are in uh Mamma Mia. So we were on the ship last week, and we go see the show again. The show is identical except for a couple of key components. And it's and it is the component that is in every Hollywood production. If you if you watch any series, within a couple of seasons, you're always going to have a gay character. Always. And that's contractual. I did a little bit of research on that. Some of that is by contract because the Screen Actors Guild has negotiated where any production has to be represented by this community. There has to be representation, uh, character-wise in any production. And you can't get funding if you don't, okay? So if you're going to do a program for almost anything, if you want funding, one of the stipulations to get actors to perform is that you have to have uh a gay character in the in the production. So we're watching Mamma Mia, so there was a gay character in one of the that wasn't there last time. That wasn't there two years ago. Right. But what was more noticeable, what stood out even more, was there is a tran a transgender character. Uh a man comes out in the in the film. If you want to see what Mamma Mia is about, you do that, you Google it.

SPEAKER_05

But I've never seen the movie.

SPEAKER_01

No, I haven't either. But but in the live show that we just saw last week, a transgender character, it's a it's a man that comes out in in one scene wearing a white bridal dress. Very noticeable. So the question is, why is this so important? Joe Rogan asked exactly the same question on one of his recent podcasts.

SPEAKER_00

What is going on today where this is such a hot topic? Like, what has hap- I mean, what has been the shift in our culture? Is is can you find a patient zero? Was there an initial explosion that led to the domino effect? Like, what what is it that's leading to such an utter fascination culture-wide about gender and sex now? These are the big hot topics of today. It's gender, sex, race. And those those things seem to be, I guess, also sexual orientation. Gender, sex, race, sexual orientation. Those four. It's just unprecedented in our time that these are the most widely talked about subjects across the board with young people and people that are virtue signaling and people that want to be, you know, air quotes woke.

SPEAKER_06

Gender dysphoria is a condition that is deeply painful for many people, and it's increasing in its occurrence today. Transgender surgery has a really dark history, and I think everybody needs to know it. I think it's key that we understand the history of where transgender surgeries even came from. And I want to focus today on a key person that you should know about and his story. His name is David Remer. You may not have heard of David Reimer in conversations about gender or sex, because David Reimer actually is proof of the darkness of the transgender ideology. David Reimer was actually born Bruce Remer, and he had a twin brother. Bruce and his twin brother Brian, when they were very young, about eight months old, were diagnosed with a condition that the doctor said circumcision would help heal. And so little Bruce was first to go and was taken in to be circumcised. And in the circumcision, they damaged Bruce's penis. After this botched circumcision, the condition that the two little twin boys had had actually went away for the other brother. So he never underwent circumcision. They decided not to do it because of what happened to Bruce. But the parents were now left with this beautiful little baby boy who was severely maimed. And in that process, they ended up watching television one day. They watched a program with John Munny on it, the psychiatrist John Munny, who at the time was doing experimental transgender surgeries. And John Munny was saying, hey, listen, if you have ambiguous genitalia, then you can be raised as a different sex than you are biologically. And so the parents started thinking, well, maybe we can raise Bruce as a girl. So they ended up taking Bruce and his twin brother to see John Money. And this is where all the horrors began. John Munny would eventually remove both of Bruce's testicles. He would instruct the parents to raise Bruce as a girl, changing his name to Brenda. And he would start to start the process of ultimately genderizing Bruce, now Brenda, as a little girl. In the process, um, Dr. Money would actually sexually abuse both boys. So he would instruct the parents to leave them with him for clinical visits, and he would actually have the boys commit sexual acts with each other. So he'd sexually abuse them. And the boys were so disturbed by this, they would cry, they would ask not to go, but the parents would still send them, and the psychiatrist would even abuse them more. He would physically abuse them if they weren't doing these sex acts with each other. So the abuse that he perpetuated on Bruce and his brother is completely, it's unbelievably horrific. And this is a psychiatrist, which, by the way, continued to have his license until his death. When Bruce became an adolescent, you know, being called Brenda, he actually would discover the truth of his birth because he asked questions. He didn't want to be a girl anymore. He wanted to be a boy. And his parents would admit to him that they had had his testicles removed and that he was actually born a boy. And when they first shared this with him, his one question was, What was my name? And they told him your name was Bruce. And it's at that point he adopted the name David instead because he wanted to be like David, who's who was able to slay the giant and overcome tremendous difficulties. So he had a fighting spirit. He was a beautiful person who had a fighting spirit. And we're actually going to watch the exclusive interview that he did with Oprah Winfrey in 2000, talking about the trauma that he endured and the forgiveness that he had in his heart ultimately for those who harmed him.

SPEAKER_02

For years, this case was called a medical triumph, but in truth, the case was a failure, devastating the lives of just about everybody involved.

SPEAKER_06

Oprah's admitting it already. I mean, this is like the OG D transitioner. It's so tragic that his story has not echoed more to today that not more people know this story.

SPEAKER_02

Welcome to This Kingdom Minute with your host, Kimberly Blakes on the Doc and Carolyn Podcast. How be it when he, the Spirit of Truth, comes, for he will guide you into all truth. This is what the Bible says. It's talking about the Holy Spirit. So this means that if you have been born again, if you've had an authentic encounter with the Lord, you have been born again. This means that the Holy Spirit comes and he lives and dwells inside of you. He makes his home inside of you and he will prompt you to know when something is alive. Nothing is this complicated. Do you know that there are certain situations that you could just simply say, Lord, what is this? And he'll show you. You don't have to go to Q, you don't have to go to YouTube, you don't have to listen to any conspiracy at all. You just would go right to the Lord. And this is why the Lord spoke about conspiracies. He said, Do not say everything is conspiracy, that everything that these people are saying is the conspiracy. It's because there was gonna be a time that people are going to reject everything. Because if you cannot tell the difference in a lie and the truth, you just chalk everything up to being a lie. Thank you for tuning in to this Kingdom Minute with your host Kimberly Blakes on the Doc and Carolyn podcast. You can find me on Facebook at Kimberly Blakes, and I also have a podcast called The Faith Frame Perspective. I'll see you guys there.

SPEAKER_01

Finally, we're gonna hear from Dr. Miriam Grossman. Dr. Miriam Grossman is an American psychiatrist and a fierce advocate for children as it relates to gender-affirming care.

SPEAKER_03

Not too long ago, the parents that I saw in my office were concerned about the hookup culture and friends with benefits. They worried that their teen daughters might get pregnant or infected with herpes. Those were the good old days. Now the parents that I see are asking me for Xanax for their panic attacks and insomnia. Their daughters want to grow beards and have their breasts removed. I am reporting to you from the front lines of the war on gender ideology. I am not a journalist, I am not an academic, and I am not part of a think tank. I am a medical doctor who's in the trenches, helping families with children who believe their bodies are terrible mistakes. Some of my patients wear tight elastic binders to flatten their developing breasts. They go through the day in pain, feeling lightheaded and short of breath. Many of my male patients shave their chests, arms, and legs to erase signs of masculinity. Forgive me for being graphic. One fifteen-year-old patient tapes his penis between his legs and pushes his testicles up into his inguinal canals. He does this to create a flat feminine crotch. My patients have gender dysphoria. They are dissociated from their bodies. They have trauma, depression, anxiety, autism, eating disorders, and other mental health problems. Their suffering is intense, and they are convinced that relief will come only from testosterone shots, estrogen patches, and a surgeon's scalpel. Their parents' worry and anguish cannot be described. I've been asked to speak today about how gender ideology is a medical experiment on our children. To be more precise, the actual experiment is gender-affirming care that the American Psychiatric Association and our Health and Human Services tells me I must provide. There is no high-quality evidence that gender-affirming care leads to long-term positive outcomes or decreased suicides. While there is conclusive evidence of serious harm and lifelong suffering, gender-affirming care calls for unquestioning acceptance of a child's chosen identity. Even though that identity contradicts reality, it means placing the child in the driver's seat, no matter how young or troubled he may be, allowing him to pick his name, his pronouns, his clothing, and his bathroom. This is all called social transition. Likewise, decisions to block puberty, to take cross-sex hormones, and undergo surgery are based on the child's or teenager's wishes. That is not practicing medicine. That is rubber stamping a child's self-diagnosis. Gender affirming care is centered on two assumptions. First, that regarding gender, children and adolescents know best who they are and what they need. And second, that it is possible to be born in the wrong body. These beliefs have not been proven. There is no evidence that they are legitimate. Nevertheless, for the past 10 years, affirming care has been widely accepted in the US as the first line treatment for gender dysphoria. This would not be accepted in any other area of medicine. Recently, Joe Biden and his assistant secretary of health, Dr. Levine, advised parents that early hormone and surgical treatments are crucial for their gender-confused children. I very much doubt, however, that either the president or Dr. Levine realize that the foundation for the treatments they call crucial is a single study of only 55 subjects. Gender-affirming care is based on one small case study, a study that many authorities consider problematic. This is a complicated subject, but here's what you need to know. Until the 90s, gender transition was only performed on adults, mostly on men in their 30s and 40s. The cosmetic results were not good because they'd already gone through puberty and they looked masculine. After transition, their mental health was poor and suicide rates were high. A team of Dutch researchers thought if they could intervene before puberty and prevent masculinization, these individuals would be able to pass as women and their mental health would improve. So they very carefully, key word, carefully picked a group of kids who they thought were likely to identify as transgender for the rest of their lives. They only chose kids who had severe gender dysphoria since childhood, and they couldn't have any serious mental health issues. And they were very strict about this. At age 12, puberty was blocked. At 16, either estrogen or testosterone were given to simulate the prop the puberty of the opposite sex. And then at 18, surgery was available. This is called the Dutch protocol. Many find it problematic for different reasons, but let's just put that aside. Let's just say that one and a half years after surgery, patients reported that their dysphoria was decreased. Okay. Sounds good at first glance. So why not use the Dutch protocol today on all the kids that are flooding our offices with gender dysphoria? Here's why. Right now, nearly all the kids that are being seen are victims of a social contagion called rapid onset gender dysphoria. They develop their symptoms as adolescents, not children. And the creation of their new identities is fueled by friends, pornography, and influencers on the internet. Most of them are girls with other psychiatric diagnoses. These kids would all have been disqualified from the Dutch study because the protocol excluded kids whose dysphoria developed later in adolescence and those who had significant mental health issues. The young people at today's gender clinics and hospitals are a completely different group of children. It's like two people who complain of knee pain. One fell and the other has articles. Arthritis. They have the same symptom, knee pain. Do we treat them the same way? Obviously not. Not only that, but the Dutch discouraged social transition. Gender-affirming care supports socially transition at very early ages, even in three and four-year-olds. Medical interventions in the United States are available earlier than in the Dutch study. Kids can get puberty blockers as young as age eight, and they can get cross-sex hormones at 14. And surgery, well, who knows? It's the Wild West. Some surgeons say that they have no lower age limit. And we know that at children's hospital in Los Angeles, a 13-year-old breasts were removed. The Dutch provided extensive mental health support for these kids and their families. Whereas now at Planned Parenthood and other places, prescriptions are handed out for hormones after one short meeting, and there's no mental health evaluation whatsoever. These concerns have been raised by the Dutch researchers themselves. Those researchers that the protocol, the Dutch protocol, that was their invention. And they have said, what are you doing? Why are you adopting our model to this new presentation of gender dysphoria? We need more research about this new population. They are different. The same caution is urged by medical authorities in Britain, Sweden, Finland, France, Holland, Belgium, Australia, and New Zealand. They studied the data and they concluded that the research is very low quality. For example, concerning puberty blockers, the editor-in-chief of the British Medical Journal, who is also director of the Center of Evidence-Based Medicine at Oxford University, said the quality of evidence in this area is terrible. So in those countries that I mentioned, medical interventions on minors have either been sharply curtailed, or the groups are being urging great caution and they're saying, take care of mental health issues first. Regarding hormones and surgeries, there's no evidence of long-term benefit, but there is a high risk of damage. Let me turn for a minute to the damage of the experiment called gender-affirming care. While there are people who are pleased, for some the damage is catastrophic. The list of possible medical problems from blockers, cross-sex hormones, and surgeries is extensive. I couldn't possibly discuss all of them in these few minutes. A few areas of concern: bone density, heart attacks, blood clots, strokes, early menopause, sexual dysfunction, infertility, effects on brain development, and that's only from hormones. We didn't even get to the surgeries. Now, regarding the surgeries, for a while I actually considered displaying for you a stream of photos. There's so many of them available of girls 14, 15 years old with fresh mastectomy scars on their chests, or even worse, the so-called bottom surgeries, a euphemism, of course, for castration, followed by construction of what's called a neo-vagina, which is, of course, not at all a vagina, and the genital surgeries done on women who want to appear as men. These surgeries come with an alarming rate of complications, some of them very painful, dangerous, and debilitating. A nightmare, hideous. So I had this, I imagined having these big screens and showing these horrific pictures to you, but the room is not set up for that. So consider yourselves lucky. They are images that you would not easily forget. So instead, I am gonna read to you the harrowing words of a woman who lived as a man for eight years before returning to her female identity. She is what's called a detransitioner. She transitioned, and then she decided that she would like to go back to living as a woman. So I'm going to read to you an edited YouTube testimony of one woman. Her name is Jalisa, and I'd guess that she's in her 20s. She doesn't mention being on blockers, but it's clear from her low voice that she took testosterone. She started medical transition at age 18. She underwent a series of so-called gender-affirming surgeries. She had a bilateral mastectomy. She had removal of her uterus and ovaries. The walls of her vagina were sewn together. And then her surgeon took the skin and soft tissue of her forearm and constructed a faux penis and testicles. After surgery, she became addicted to pain medications. Now it's years later, and this is what she wants the world to know. How do I love myself again? How do I feel connected to myself again? I don't know what happened to me. And I'm just so angry. I'm so sad. And I don't know how this happened. Something infected me, a virus or something. It happened so quickly. If I just would have waited, she's crying here. If I just would have waited and let myself heal, I can't have kids. I'm left to accept the scraps of the life I could have had. I could have had a full life that now I need to mourn. I was young, I was sad, I was impressionable, and I thought this would fix everything. It's just so bad. It sucks so bad. It's just something I'll have to live with. There's no fixing it. There's no making it better. I don't see a path, a way to go forward. My body feels so foreign. It's hard to look at and accept that it's mine. As a woman who thought she was trans, I went all the way, as far as one can go. And then I woke up and realized that I made the biggest effing mistake of my life. There was a reason it took so long to detransition. It was to avoid the unavoidable, all of this mourning, this pain, this loss, this wreckage that I now have to sit with and figure out. I'm constantly asking, how did this happen to me? This woman is a victim of the medical experiment called gender-affirming care. Her suffering was 100% avoidable. And she says, if I just would have waited, if I just would have waited and let myself heal. Yes, yes, exactly. That's the proper treatment. Waiting and healing, healing from emotional wounds. And if you think her story is unusual, I suggest you go to Twitter, hashtag DTrans, many other hashtags, and go to Reddit for DTrans. You have 38,000 people on there. 38,000 people telling their stories. As a doctor, I've seen catastrophic loss and suffering due to illnesses like cancer and schizophrenia. I can live with that. Gender ideology also leads to catastrophic suffering, but it is man-made. Teaching children to deny biology is man-made. Telling them they get to choose if they're a girl or a boy, or both or neither, because they may have been incorrectly assigned an identity at birth, that's a man-made idea. Making dangerous hormones and surgeries available without proper mental health evaluation and treatment, turning this into a civil rights issue, silencing and intimidating detransitioners and doctors like me who believe our patients will improve through waiting and healing. That approach is now deemed unethical. All that is man-made. I cannot accept it, and neither should you.
