In this poignant talk, Brea describes the obstacles she's encountered in seeking treatment for her illness, whose root causes and physical effects we don't fully understand, as well as her mission to document through film the lives of patients that medicine struggles to treat.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fb3yp4uJhq0 | title = What happens when you have a disease doctors can't diagnose | date = Jan 17, 2017|access-date=|website=YouTube | last = Brea | first=Jennifer | authorlink=Jennifer Brea|archive-url=|archive-date=|publisher=TED}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.ted.com/talks/jen_brea_what_happens_when_you_have_a_disease_doctors_can_t_diagnose | title = What happens when you have a disease doctors can't diagnose | date = Jun 2016|access-date=|website=TED | last = Brea | first=Jennifer | authorlink=Jennifer Brea|archive-url=|archive-date=}}</ref> <embedvideo service="youtube" dimensions="400" alignment="right" container="frame" description="By Veronica Weber/Palo Alto Online (2015)">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9_HwOUiImvw</embedvideo> [[Invisible Illness - Stories of Chronic Fatigue Syndrome|''Invisible Illness - Stories of Chronic Fatigue Syndrome'']] By Veronica Weber/Palo Alto Online This mini documentary reveals 3 stories of people who have been impacted by [[Chronic Fatigue Syndrome]] - a little known disease that affects roughly 836,000-2.5 million people in the U.S. and receives little research funding.
