@4theculture____ This is the same smug behavior that made Disneyland (and others) remove their FastPass programs—even though there’s ACTUAL disabled people that NEED (yes, NEED!) help! But hey, yeah, be proud! 👏🏼.👏🏼.👏🏼. P.S. While you have your shoes off, why not try walking in someone else’s?
Please pass it on…

Opiates were MADE for surgical pain over 175 years ago. Have we gotten so far away from their discovery that we’ve forgotten how groundbreaking they were? And how is a stimulant helpful when you need to watch heart rates to make sure there aren’t complications??

“Drug addiction is a disease, not a crime”. Disease only affects a small percentage of the population, so tell me again—why are we all still suffering from lack of proper pain treatment?

This is what it’s like for pretty much every chronic pain patient. It’s wrong we’re treated as addicts—we are not addicts! We would give pain meds up in a second if we no longer had pain, can you say the same for addicts? No. Because they take them to get high. BIG difference.

Birx & others were frustrated with the CDC’s antiquated system for tracking virus data, which they worried was inflating some statistics—such as mortality rate and case count—by as much as 25 percent. “There is nothing from the CDC that I can trust” 🤔😶😠 washingtonpost.com/politics/as-de…

@POTUS You should see some of the things we Americans go through in healthcare—both as far as diagnoses, and as far as costs to us. I refused emergency hospitals to avoid costs, especially since I was denied SSDI unfairly (after fighting over ten years!).
@END_JRN still on station retired but advocating like mad full time
@LemmonSammy @CSWhiteMD I am going through the SAME thing. I swear once you're tagged with anxiety they never hear another word you say
@CSWhiteMD A while back, there was a hash tag about not being believed by Doctors.. I lost count of how many posts there were, but I do remember how horrible the stories were. Unsurprisingly, most of the ones who experienced massive gaslighting were women. 😔
@CSWhiteMD too often instead of drs just saying “I don’t know” they’ll just gaslight us instead by saying it’s all in our head, we’re faking, etc. I don’t know why or where so many drs learned to do this but it would be nice to know how to change it so more are like you.
@CSWhiteMD Having multiple autoimmune conditions myself doctors treat me like I don’t know my own body. Pain? Forget about that. Chronic pain patients aren’t believed & we are just labeled. Even if I think that I’m having a heart attack I’ll just die at home.
@quinky_dink @CSWhiteMD Your last sentence rings true for so many. I've told my husband, "the ER isn't gonna know what to do w/all this, so if the chest pain really is heart attack this time, I'll just die at home." It's something we've actually discussed, my wishes, what he's to do, etc. Awful.
“Treats this patient like complete dog 💩 because of the medication she is on.”
God bless this one doctor (out of seven ER visits) who wrote in my notes that my symptoms "aren't an anxiety attack" and wrote instead "my best guess is this is a complex neuroendocrine problem that is outside the capacity of the ER department to diagnose".
