Unfortunately I’ve had female doctors be no better at times.

I was in fitness instructor with a resting heartrate of 55. After having Covid I was basically bedbound with my heartrate going up to 135 just getting out of bed and walking to my dresser. A cardiologist told me I need to exercise more and control my anxiety. I’ve since been diagnosed with severe POTS, Orthostatic intolerance, and small fiber neuropathy. I could still spit on that Dr 5 yrs later.

This has happened to me. I am actually now convinced that they don't believe you are crazy, they just know you won't return if they call you crazy.

That’s when you say… that’s an interesting take. Please put that in my file that you said that. Also, what would a differential diagnosis be?

I'm 36 and I gave up around 30. I'm too sick to expend the damn energy to beg some misogynist with an MD for human dignity

After my Dad died in 2015, I got really sick. I was the person that rarely even got a cold. I could hardly get out of bed. My body aches from head to toe. I was devastated.

I’m only 31 and this is the exact reason I’ve given up, they just don’t give any cares and don’t even pretend to listen or care to what you say, especially as a woman. Then I get yelled at from men in my life that I don’t take it seriously. No, I take it seriously, they do not.

Just want to normalize how unsettling these visits are - of course your nervous system trips out afterward b/c you are accurately sensing the danger of the type of misogynistic “care.” So sorry you experienced this.

The joys of trying to receive medical care as a woman. It’s absolutely infuriating.

I’m so sorry ❤️‍🩹😓 that’s abysmal. I also noticed since doctors are getting repeat infections - their bandwidth for curiosity is super short.

The default anxiety diagnosis is a crisis at this point. Do they not want to work? Do they hate being doctors? I don't understand.

They don't actually think it's in our head. They just don't care. They collect our payment and send us on our way. My daughter's cardiologist fcked around until she ended up in the CCU.

Not only that but they just push pills that mess with you and can make things worse because they barely get to know you and never follow up or care to spend more than 10 minutes with you. And T

PLEASE report that doctor. It’s absolutely outrageous what they get away with. Also, start recording all you appointments. It’s much easier to prove malpractice when you have it recorded. ❤️

I'm so sorry. I've had to say to doctors, "please write in my chart that you are declining to investigate any cardiac causes of my symptoms. I will be requesting a copy of your notes from this visit."

Everything you’re feeling is REAL. I dealt with a horrible cardiologist as well and I had to go to a different doctor. Praying you find a good docotr who will actually hear you out. ( I have fibromyalgia, POTS & long covid )

I have an amazing GP (and a woman), who immediately agreed I have POTS, but in order to rule other things out I have to go to the cardiologist. And there are NO women cardiologists in, like, the whole county..... I'm SO scared to go. But I'm trying to be brave, cause I know what's wrong and my GP is on my side 😬

I'm sorry; it's a helluva experience, even if you are familiar with it and expect it, you still have to feel and process it all, just like any other form of abuse or harm. ❤️
