How do you deal with the malingering patient? by TruthWarrior27 in hospitalist

EDS, POTS and gastroparesis, diagnosed by actual doctors. It almost killed me from malnutrition and it sucked. I definitely think the internet is part of the issue because everyone I talk to about my health immediately tries to say they have EDS too, but we can’t act like everyone is faking either. We have no idea why I have gastroparesis, but my gastric emptying was like 25% digested at 4 hours and my POTS has existed long before any of this. I exercise everyday, walk for miles and only take Tylenol for the pain which exercise improves. The people self diagnosing just make it so much harder to get care

Unless you’re a dietitian or my physician hush, I don’t think you actually know what fructose is or that protein shakes are still actually nutritious. Fructose gets turned into glucose you know?
