I recently saw my medical records going back to when I was five years old. Even then I had signs of a genetic condition I wouldn’t be diagnosed with until I was 29. The doctors’ notes were regularly condescending toward myself and my mother while they offered no resolution.Permalink On twitter.com

I’m still losing weight from an inability to digest solid food. But after two tests in normal range doc sent a note with results to “continue to monitor symptoms.” Should I seek a second opinion? Yeah. But it’s so demeaning and I’m so tired. @SaraLang/1158738370518028288Permalink On twitter.com
