[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The HAES movement has turned everything in regard to mentioning someone’s weight into fat shaming. Physicians all over are getting written up by patients if they are told by the physician (the honest ones) that they cannot offer an effective treatment, or it will be only very short term relief, for their disease or symptom until they lose weight. [/quote] On the flip side of the coin, I've had a couple overweight friends experience having a physician tell them their symptoms were all because of being overweight; one pretty much walked into the room and said, "it's because your're fat" and then turn around and left. When in fact there was a real underlying issue, unrelated to weight, that was causing symptoms. One almost died because of such "advice" but luckily persisted until she found a doctor who took her complaints seriously.[/quote]
