[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]NP here. Don't know why someone would write "LOL" in response to the previous message- you must really be an idiot. The story is infuriating and fascinating- the ways that people dismiss other people suffering ( kind of like the previous poster who wrote LOL), and the power dynamics in medicine that can allow patient suffering to continue. [/quote] In a podcast that explores how women are stereotyped as hysterical, hormonal, and emotional and how their medical pain is minimized and dismissed and they are gaslit, it’s sadly ironic to see other people mocking them and laughing. Please, friend, go strip naked, lay in strirrups in an OR, and let me plunge a long needle through your vaginal side wall and into your ovaries to suck out your eggs one by one, repeatedly, multiple times, while you scream and cry and are told to “hold still” and “calm down” and that “we can’t give you any more medicine,” and then we can talk about if these women are “overreacting.” [/quote]
