Today I spoke to a coworker who had bad experiences with doctors and was seeking recommendations for a new one, then other coworkers chimed in, and so I decided to ask you guys as well. Well, not for a doctor recommendation, but about your bad experienced with doctors?
I’m gonna spoiler mine, because it makes me very uncomfortable, so perhaps it may make someone else very uncomfortable.
uncomfortable
I had a doctor who had no business in it make me show my intimate parts (I’m intersex) and she touched them. She was curious, I guess…? She’s a psychiatrist, so, again, literally 0 business doing so. I already have trauma from regular people who treat me like a circus display, I really had no need for someone with systemic power over me using it like that…
No, I didn’t report this. I was a teenager and barely functioning at the time. :/
Was it getting stuck in your esophagus? If so, I have a similar condition. I have to make sure I chew my food into a fine paste before I swallow.
That’s what was happening. It didn’t happen all the time, but it was still annoying when it happened. Certain foods seemed to be worse than others. The procedure I had basically widen the esophagus, making it easier for the food to go down.
Sounds like you’ll never have trouble losing weight
It sucks. If I get a dense piece of food lodged in there, I can’t get any fluids down and will start to just regurgitate anything I drink or eat. It feels like the worst heartburn in the world mixed with nausea until it gets dislodged.
sounds like a hiatal hernia - my dad suffered with the same thing for years.
I know, it was a joke
I did still laugh lol. Sorry I took the serious turn there
