Why didn't you say so?

Best medical advice I ever got was to bring a man to your appointments

I had a bad case of walking pneumonia and I was still trying to work through it. I had to go the hospital when I realized how little I could breathe. When I got there, they kept trying to ask me if I have anxiety and that I needed to calm my breathing.

I CANT BREATHE THATS THE PROBLEM!! It took hours for them to take me seriously and axtually do an x-ray. I should have brought my bf

It sucks because I actually went to the doctors on my own at first and also said I was having some trouble breathing as well as my other symptoms, and I got told to come back if I wasn't better in a week

Thats so infuriating, you would think that having trouble breathing is something they take seriously

I'm so sorry and I also know exactly how this is like after going through health issues myself recently.

Being gaslit while I'm suffering and sick is NOT fun
