Invisible Illnesses

Invisible Illnesses explores why so many people experience real, sometimes severe symptoms—like back pain, headaches or fatigue—yet medical tests come back normal. Hosts Alex Ward-Booth, who’s been through his own personal medical journey, and his cousin Dr. Stephen Ward-Booth, a practicing GP, shed light on “functional illnesses” like IBS and fibromyalgia. Through real stories and expert voices, they reveal the surprising mind-body connections and share practical strategies for feeling better—even when the causes and answers aren’t obvious. Not medical advice; speak to your GP.
