Limits of PCR and standard testing

What if the reason so many people still feel terrible… is because the system is looking in the wrong place? In this episode of Digital Social Hour, Sean Kelly sits down with Dr. Jessica Peatross and Robby Besner for a conversation on chronic illness, Lyme disease, parasites, detox, sauna therapy, heavy metals, minerals, and why so many people feel dismissed when their labs come back “normal.” Dr. Jess shares her personal story of losing her California medical license after standing for informed consent, why she chose to walk away instead of comply, and how that experience changed the way she looks at medicine, public health, and patient care. They also get into why some people deal with lingering symptoms for years, why standard testing can miss deeper issues, how sauna and minerals may support detox, and why more patients are turning to practitioners who look beyond the usual blood work. This episode is intense, controversial, and packed with strong opinions. But at the core of it is a bigger question: What happens when people know they’re sick… but the system keeps telling them they’re fine?
