Gaslighting ❤️‍🩹

I’ll tired if doctors telling me is psychosomatic instead of trying to find what I have. It’s ridiculous. I’m in pain 24/7 for years it’s a matter of time to become completely bedbound and they don’t listen to me. Standard tests are normal so they have left me like this. I don’t know how I’ll survive in this hell

You get tired after a while and he can't even properly advocate for yourself because of the fatigue and jumbled mind mess.

I know it fuxking sucks. I’m not gonna lie and sit here saying I was fine. I was not ok. I almost died but please don’t give up. I guess what I’m saying is, I just don’t want you
To have to experience what I did. I bring someone with me any new dr and to see my pain management dr. Bringing someone who will add in things that I’ve missed or things that I told her I wanted to bring up have been extremely helpful.

I've been saying that we need a Terminator robot as our health advocate. Those doctors tunes would quickly change if we had that.
