The dr at the hospital put me on a psych consult saying I belonged in the psych ward and wasn’t worth his time. 4 drs said I needed to be there but he claimed he cured me but he never told anyone what I have.
The bias is killing me. I only have one dr that said it is not in my head since my blood work is way above normal.

I’m sorry you have experienced this bias. It’s cruel and wrong. I have also been misdiagnosed and significant medical issues have been dismissed. I could write more details but I think I’ll just leave it here for now.
I’m a person, not a diagnosis. exactly.
