Vanessa Wilson+FollowAnyone else fed up with doctor dismissal?Walked out of another appointment feeling unheard and invalidated. Years of symptoms brushed off as 'just anxiety' or 'it's all in your head.' Anyone else exhausted from fighting to be taken seriously by medical professionals? #MedicalGaslighting #PatientAdvocacy #ChronicIllness #TrustYourBody #Health #BodyHealth12648Share
alangonzalez+FollowWhen your doctor finally believes youAfter years of being dismissed and told it was 'just anxiety,' I broke down in tears today when my new doctor said: 'You have real symptoms. Just because I don't have answers doesn't mean there's nothing going on.' Validation shouldn't feel this rare in healthcare, but it does. Still no diagnosis, but being believed is the first step. #ChronicIllness #PatientAdvocacy #InvisibleIllness #BeingHeard #Health #BodyHealth381Share
Katrina Jennings+FollowWhen my doctor said no to HRT...Initially devastated when my doctor wouldn't prescribe HRT for my symptoms. Six months later, I'm actually grateful! Found out my issues were thyroid-related, not hormonal. The path to healing isn't always what we expect. Sometimes a 'no' leads to better answers. Anyone else experience something similar? #WomensHealth #HormoneJourney #PatientAdvocacy #ThyroidHealth #Health #BodyHealth355Share
jose71+FollowWhen doctors don't know what you knowSpent hours researching my condition only to have my doctor dismiss everything I found. How is this all so unknown to actual medical professionals? Sometimes I wonder if I should just print out research papers and bring them to my appointments. Anyone else feel like they're educating their doctors? #PatientAdvocacy #MedicalGaps #ChronicIllness #BeYourOwnAdvocate #Health #BodyHealth7748Share
andrew41+FollowWhy won't doctors just listen to us?If my doctor had actually LISTENED to me describing my symptoms six months ago, I wouldn't be sitting in this specialist's office finally getting a diagnosis after suffering needlessly. The worst part? Being treated like I was overreacting the entire time. Your symptoms are valid. Your pain is real. And you deserve healthcare providers who believe you. #MedicalGaslighting #PatientAdvocacy #ChronicIllness #BeHeard #TrustYourBody #Health #BodyHealth5846Share
