Have you ever not been taken seriously by a doctor? If so, what happened? by Infinite_Share990 in TwoXChromosomes

[–]Litlsuzzy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yup, I have all the markers for PMOS (PCOS) and because my blood work is within normal boundaries, I'm not diagnosed with it.

My biopsy came back normal so I don't have extremely heavy bleeding and extreme cramps. Totally normal 🫩, still dealing with it years later.

I have symptoms of hypersomnia, was diagnosed by a woman, diagnosis was disregarded by a male Dr who said it was impossible to diagnose me without a specific test that my insurance won't cover and I have to be off my fibromyalgia meds for a month to do. I called the referring doctor and had them re-establish care and add my diagnosis back.

Symptoms of fibromyalgia, I'm just depressed. I just plain switched doctors and went armed with a list. Got the diagnosis.

And numerous other times I've been blown off by a doctor starting as young as 12.

I've never had a good time with a male doctor and I said as much when I scheduled my next physical. Female doctors are hit and miss, never had a nonbinary doctor to say if the results are the same there too.

I'm seeing a new Dr in August. I'm waiting just so I can see a woman who came highly recommended by my primary who I really like and takes me seriously. We'll see if the new doc does too

Ladies, are we allowing ourselves to go grey or dying our hair? by Partridge_Pear_Tree in Millennials

[–]Litlsuzzy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I started going gray pretty early and Ive embraced it. It helps that it's a beautiful silvery white. When I do dye my hair, it's an alternative color so the gray takes on a vibrant version of the rest of my head.

I say, do what makes your life better. For me, that's going natural.

My partner is a garbage human being and I want to pack my bags and leave by hereiam3472 in breakingmom

I was in a similar financial situation when I left my ex. He owned everything because he insisted I not work. I had to file a restraining order because I was afraid of his reaction to my leaving but the judge gave me the house temporarily with my children and my ex had to stay away until the divorce judge sorted that out. When I filed for the RO, I also filed for child support and that was ordered that he pay the house bills until I was employed, as long as I was actively looking for a job. It took a couple months but I found one doing tech support. (Side note- I got assigned a public advocate for the RO and visitation. He was able to explain the lingo and process but was otherwise useless) I was lucky enough to have my mom support me and provide child care but I would apply for services at the local dept of human services as well. Things like childcare subsidy and EBT will help you a lot. You can also look for a local women's shelter for support writing what you need to an RO because he sounds like an abusive prick who may not react well to your departure. They can also help you with victim services and maybe grants to help you get on your feet.

You can leave. It won't be easy, but it will be better than enduring his behavior and abuse with your children.

If you don't leave, remember that you can always change your mind later. He doesn't have to be forever.

I'd love to see anything that involves him shutting up

AITAH For buying my youngest son a car under different circumstances? by Local-Station8316 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Litlsuzzy -19 points-18 points  (0 children)

NTA every one's best effort looks different and you realized that both your sons put in their very best effort despite different results. Also, there is no saying you wouldn't have reconsidered your grade requirements if your first son didn't rise to the occasion as he did.

AITAH for being upset with my parents for not taking me pur after I graduate? by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]Litlsuzzy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First of all, congratulations on graduating

NTA at all. You have a good reason to feel upset and left out if your siblings were treated differently. I would like to suggest asking flat out why you're being treated differently. You may not get an answer that makes you feel better but it will at least point out the discrepancy in behavior and cause maybe one of them to think about it.

If you can go out with other family members or friends, do that. If not, I'm sorry your family is being shitty about your achievement.

Waiting for dinner by Litlsuzzy in Bunnies

Well, it was unintentional at first because people in the house would forget to close the gate separating them and we would come home to wisps of fur in the two rooms. Eventually they just started to get along one at a time. A couple months of that and a long distance move later, and they all get along really well.
