I suffer from generalized anxiety disorder and depression, both of which went undiagnosed and therefore untreated for seven years- I began exhibiting symptoms when I was twelve, I didn't receive diagnosis and treatment until I was nineteen- because all the symptoms I was showing were dismissed as me being a hysterical teenage girl or me being excessively emotional because my hormones were going crazy due to my going through puberty. I had to basically metaphorically scream "It's not normal to feel this way" before I was taken seriously and actually allowed to talk to a doctor about what I was going through

There's a reason why you always hear stupid ppl complain about their free-dumbs being taken away. They want to continue to be free to be dumb AF. Case & Point - 'Bias Training' ...? Is that anything like 'police sensitivity training'???

Anyone else see the irony in saying "stereotyping and bias against black people is bad!" and turn around and use a bunch of stereotypes and bias against white folks asking for a sup? lol.

if anyone needs me to go to the doctor with them let me know. I'll be happy to repeat everything you said. I'm already the designated "White Guy Who Talks To Police At The Party" so I'm used to it.

This also happens in Australia my mother was sent home to breathe in some linament in boiling water for her "breathing problems", 12 hours later she died in the IC. Double pneumonia!

Not to be a dick or anyting. Black women are notorious for overreacting or coming off with an attitude. But if a white man comes off with an attitude, or acting obnoxious to the doctor, he will be ignored also. But white men are not notorious for acting that way in a doctor's office.

When I was 14 I had a condition that meant my mental health problems presented as physical heath problems. I couldn't walk or use my writing arm. The first person to correctly diagnose me was a neurologist who explained the condition, told my parents to leave it alone for a month and the 'girl's her age do this sometimes'. My parents knew this was bullshit but we followed his advice anyway just so we couldn't be accused of not trying. Not surprisingly for a very depressed and anxious teen being isolated: I got worse. The fact that my age and gender played a part in that treatment was basically outright stated.

Because gender differences are absent in the inducibility of estradiol C-2 metab- olism in humans (1,14), we studied male subjects to eliminate the possible influence of fluctuating hormone levels. From the estrogen dependent cancer study. Oliver is FULL of shit.

Jabir Bin Hayyan10 hari yang lalu

Nonsense. I might as well say medicine treated men as guinea pigs with no ethic boards and conducted drug trials on non-suspecting men and spared women the experiments. I might as well point out that women in ER do not get as much pain medicines because maybe they are not able to communicate to the doctor about the severity of their pain. I can go on and on. Keep fucking feminism out of medicine.

They didn't take me seriously when I was blacking out, paralysed with monthly pains until it happened on Campus one day and they had to call an ambulance. They would say that pain is pain and I just gotta deal with it, meanwhile I would walk home half unconscious trying to hold on long enough to get to a safe place. My high school nurse back in the day told me she was concerned and my mum tried to get my dad and doctors to take me seriously but no. Not until I've finally been unable to protect myself from becoming helpless in a public setting so those around me had to call an ambulance did I finally get help. Now they've finally sent in a reference to a specialist but I'm still waiting and it's been months... I take Levlen that stops my cycles altogether now and fear the day I might forget to take my pills or have to take a break from them...

"Thicker skin," "faster coagulation," "less sensitivity to pain," That sounds a lot like "black people are better able to handle slave whipping than white people," kind of ad-hoc justification to me. Wonder if that's where that kind of thinking came from, from justifying the slavery of black people, that they can "better handle discipline," than whites.

I really appreciate this episode, but.... even when talking about the physical realities of the sex based oppression women are subjected it, we still have to promote an ideology that argues that women are just a feeling in a male's head, and that sex is "assigned" arbitrarily by a doctor. "Assigned male at birth" is a phrase that only makes sense when it refers to people with an intersex condition, which has nothing to do with "gender identity".

You are not assign a gender at birth. Your gender is identified at birth. If you want to change it later as an adult fine.

A friend's 22 year old daughter was on the track field when she had a stroke. Doctors assumed she was drunk because she was a college student. Sent her home. Family drove her back, went to the ER. Finally got the help she needed. Doctors are the last people on earth who should be making assumptions. It's terrifying to realize that the individuals who hold your life in their hands can assess you without knowing you.

When will something be done about this and other unfair practices in this country? As a now single female, I have been subjected to many injustices and have found there is nowhere to turn for help, at least not where I live (since most of the drs, attys, judges, people with power/money, etc, who reside in this area are friends and/or socialize with one another.) I am a 61 year old disabled/retired grandmother who was on my deathbed after what i was told would be 'a simple outpatient procedure'. I later found out that the local hospital and surgeon released me with septic shock and double pneumonia. After being released, I called the surgeon for 3 days and getting no return call, I drove myself back to the ER. After 2 days lying in a hospital bed, i turned yellow and was unable to breathe. I 'awoke' 5 days later attached to life support, totally unaware what happened to me before and after i blacked out. During those 5 unconcious days in the ICU, drs had informed my family, who came to say goodbye, thinking maybe i cld hear them, that I probably would not survive. Somehow, I did. 12 more days in hosp, released with same problem, on CIPRO for 6 months awaiting surgery (this time by a wonderful surgeon 60 miles from where i live who corrected the orig problem.) However, now almost every organ is showing signs of damage, most recently my heart. I am fearful I am going to die way too soon because, even though i have proof ...medical records from the hospital and orig surgeon (some altered to cover their errors), i cannot find a dr who will review the records in their entirety, or, it seems, is willing to listen to me. (The drs with whom i had a lifelong relationship with, and who know i have good morals and character, have retired.) I cannot move at this time for many reasons, most importantly my grandchildren whom I love dearly and cannot leave. ) Also, I am too ill and tired to keep fighting against the health care system. Due to my disabilities, i have limited finances and taking a bus to NYC would be too taxing as it is difficult for me to accomplish tasks that should be easy. Needless to say, my quality of life is very poor. If I were a white man or if I had a white man by my side, i am certain none of this would have occurred or would continue to happen. I have always been a problem solver, but I have no idea how to fix this one.

Once when I was close to giving birth to my first son a male doctor and a female nurse said that I was just faking the horrible pain I was feeling just because “I didn’t wanted to be pregnant anymore”. I was 20 years old, no experience at all with doctors and i was by my self because i went straight to emergency room with sharp pain 5 weeks earlier for the date that my son was supposed to be born. They sent me home treating me like I was a liar, I felt horrible I honestly wanted to die, also they were saying all of that in English thinking that i couldn’t understand them, so not only were they biased and horrible also they were ducking racist

What the absolute *frick* is this comment section. I live in Canada so I don’t get discriminated by income, I’m a female with Aboriginal heritage (which is where the prejudices are in Canada) and I _still_ have never, nor have ever known anyone to have been treated _so badly_ . I’m glad I live here, I guess.

wait, so pigmentation is not biological? So is it considdered an obtical elusion? Could also be that it shows you which charkater you haven't unlocked as a friend yet... maybe that was the reason we incisted on invited them over to just safe time with a meetup! :o And with everyone getting along so well, it was only natural for everyone to start coexisting in the unique way every child is thought in these days.. simple perfection * _ * EDIT: wait wut gender is impacting your chances in childbirth? D: ok now that is just wrong! If my wife bleeds out on the operation table than it is considdered a "tragedy" but if i get distracted by a nurses backside, causeing me to run into a window, falling to my untimely grave than "I had if commin" PFFF! We need to overcome these differences! I want to live in a world where I too can try and fail at bithing me stepdad's offspring, while my wife succums to the Man-Flue on top of her sectretary!
