Lipoedema

Doctors who don’t “believe in labels” are quite possibly my least favourite kind of doctors. Especially when the reality is they aren’t treating my specific symptoms anyway. You are underestimating me when you tell me patients go to Google something and decide they’re going to die. I can promise you patients want to know what to expect. They want to research everything so they know, so their treatment can be the most beneficial to them. And also, don’t tell me that if I had ‘insert condition’ hear I’d have a specific look. I didn’t realise everyone was the same, sort of defeats your whole point against labels then doesn’t it? #HSD #HEDS #SLE #PelvicCongestionSyndrome #Lipoedema #HypothyroidismUnderactiveThyroidDisease #Bipolar2Disorder #LivingWithPOTS #ChronicPain #Migraine
