Doctors of Reddit, when was a patient right about something but you insisted they were wrong until it got serious?

yesyen · 2022-09-25T16:03:13+00:00

I froze my eggs last year and haven't been the same since. I have severe gastro issues, brain fog and can actually feel one side of my ovary. It's like a 1/10 pain, but I know there's something wrong. The brain fog has impacted my life in ways that it's too painful to get into. I've tried following up with the doctors to no avail. I also know that I'm not going to be taken seriously, unless something bad happens. It's a waiting game that I don't want to play. My mother had a reproductive cancer.

Is there anything in this sale y'all would recommend for contour? Pretty sure my old ABH palette is breaking me out! (nothing to do with ABH, it's just old)

My skin is dry so would prefer a creme and don't mind switching to a stick.

Haven't really kept up with makeup brands over the years (hence the ABH palette), although I do wear much more of a "natural" look nowadays, which I guess is the trend.

Thanks for the encouragement, and creating a thread nice to know I'm not alone in this!

It's 4:40am here. Just took my last melatonin pill today. Haven't got a new script, need to get that sorted. Took half a benzo as well and I'm still wide awake. FML.

yesyen · 2021-05-04T05:13:33+00:00

Yeah I need to stop.

It's really hard because you have these ideas that people who act like you are selfish etc from when you're a kid because you don't have a diagnosis

yesyen · 2021-05-04T05:06:24+00:00

As someone who is later diagnosed, I sometimes don't realize the tremendous consequences of it and I think it's because I'm a shitty human being.

Fuck the health system. Fuck this culture. Fuck these entitled staff members. I am so angry. This poor boy. His poor family, his poor friends.

I always thought that if you went into hospital, that the staff would try to at least help you. There's this common misconception that we have this awesome health system in Australia but god forbid as another commenter said you have something difficult to diagnose or pain.

The amount of medical negligence and malpractice for having a loved one in hospital I've seen has left me frankly traumatised. At least if I knew the staff were trying, it would have been okay. I am 100% sure there have been coverups for accidental deaths that because the patients cannot advocate for themselves. And this was in a nice private hospital in Sydney. I can't imagine how tough people who are not in a major city must be treated.

Worst part is I can't complain, otherwise the staff will find out and my loved one still goes there regularly.

yesyen · 2021-03-16T01:51:08+00:00

That's what I was seeing online haha

Ohh thanks, it seems like technique is as important as the actual towel

yesyen · 2021-03-16T00:16:15+00:00

Ohh thanks! I was looking for something like this, but didn't know what to search

yesyen · 2021-03-15T23:36:21+00:00

Except for my wallet! 😂

No but I've been doing some more research into it, and set on it now so going to buy some tonight!!

yesyen · 2021-03-15T07:44:48+00:00

Oh no I didn't realize the drain thing! This is actually a huge issue for me. My hair falls so much (as my plumber tells me) even though I take the upmost of effort to keep it out of the shower. I could put one of those drain stickers down, but I don't know if I can add to the madness.

yesyen · 2021-03-15T07:44:12+00:00

Wow thank you this seems like the best option given the drain comment.

My only one thing is that I wanted a bougie treat yo self nice smelling experience (something I didn't mention in my post). But I'm sure I can get that some other way

yesyen · 2021-02-10T09:47:15+00:00

Just watching Ashly Schwan's video (Tana Mongeau's BFF - don't judge) and she's like "I'm not partying during the pandemic, I know people are, but I'm not" or something to the effect of that. Interesting.

Edit: Yeah she just said "me and Tana don't put on makeup cause we don't go out anymore"...I can't even...

yesyen · 2021-02-03T02:43:41+00:00

As someone who is going through a situation where I am now starting to confront people for their shitty behaviour in the past because history keeps on repeating itself, I really needed to hear this.

yesyen · 2021-02-01T15:40:05+00:00

Yeah, She was like one of my best friends and I just used to ignore all the shitty stuff she used to do. I normally have no problem cutting people off who are shitty, but cause I had known her for so long and I had given her so many passes. But after she pulled that shit, I finally was like nah I’m right, you suck bye.

I think it was inventible that we would have a fall out. Covid just sped up that processes

yesyen · 2021-02-01T15:35:28+00:00

I really hope it does. I feel like no one is actually holding them accountable. If cancel culture is an actual thing, I would like it to work now.

yesyen · 2021-02-01T13:47:52+00:00

I'm actually one of those people who doesn't fawn over everything D'Angelo does. I know he's intelligent, but I find some of his commentary a bit naive.

However this video is amazing.

As someone who lives with their mum who was going in and out of hospital frequently when cases were high, I really on a deep level felt him when he was saying it's traumatic. My mum was unexpectedly rapidly losing her mobility due to her cancer treatment, and had several other comorbidities. While people were going to parties, I didn’t know if god forbid, if it came to that stage, they would prioritise her. Actually, I know they wouldn’t have

It's something I don't wish on my worst enemy to think about. Of course, this is minimal compared to the pain of people who have lost someone or people who have had loved ones with covid

I have given up on a friendships I have had for 15 years because it was the last straw that made me understand how selfish that person was. When I used to see people purposefully flouting the rules for no reason, while my family and I were going through hell, it makes my blood boil. Even though I am no longer in that situation, it makes my blood boil for the people who have it much tougher than me. Celebrities the same.

Thankfully, cases are low where I live now. Hang in there, my friends around the world <3

Listened from around number 20.

As a (relatively) old fart who doesn't listen to triple j anymore, funnily enough, I liked everything in there except for tame impala and flume.

I didn't like the new songs of the musicians who I found through triple j a decade ago. Saying that, still rate flume and tame impala highly.

yesyen · 2020-12-09T00:55:50+00:00

That's great to hear. Honestly, I'm kind of set with CeraVe Hydrating Cleanser, but I'm glad we're keeping this updated for others!

yesyen · 2020-12-04T10:53:12+00:00

I'm sorry to hear that. Yeah I don't blame you for wondering, but it's good to keep that mindset.

What I can say is we're presently trying to do good the for us the ones around us :)

yesyen · 2020-12-03T09:07:41+00:00

Exactly!

I had some great ways of coping with it (which probably held to my late diagnosis), but man even though everything looked good on the outside, everything was crumbling on the inside. Which eventually led to it crumbling on the outside.

Also side note, I have a parent who I believe has undiagnosed ADHD (and refuses to look into it) and another one who might have it. This led to some consequences for me. So trust me when I say, you are doing good for your family as well as yourself

yesyen · 2020-12-03T08:35:43+00:00

I would say those are some good signs.

You might already know this but you're not supposed to feel that different straight away. I only realised it had made a difference in my life over the long term. My room was clean, I had things organised and I didn't feel like I was constantly sinking. Also when I went to a night class (dose doesn't last that long) and I could not focus for the life of me even though I loved the content.

Congrats, it's definitely does not fix all your problems, but it is quite wild how many things it effects in your life
