@julez27_: It’s sad but it’s true. If they’re not saying the diagnosis you are thinking of you can say things like “Do you think it could be ____” NEVER say “I think I have ____”. It’s messed up, but most doctors won’t react well to that #autoimmunedisease #chronicillness #doctorsappointment #sick
You know what also works? I tell them another doctor told me it could be x but I’m not sure I agree, and they’ll immediately believe the fake doctor I made up and tell me I’m wrong and why

You can also create a common enemy. e.g. "My mom is somehow certain I have Crohn's 🙄 Can we do some tests just to get her off my back?"

“My boyfriend/husband wants me to ask you about [symptoms]” BONUS POINTS say you’re worried because you want kids. Doctors will go above and beyond for people who say they want kids lol

Absolutely. My appendix ruptured and the Dr wanted to send me home from a period I said IM NOT ON MY PERIOD GO GET ME SCANNED RIGHT NOW. & he was not budging until he was like I’m going to do it to show you there’s nothing wrong with me… *cue in emergent surgery* and I made him apologize to me.

Ok, but how to get my doctor to say I'm disabled? I've had chronic fatigue since COVID and can't work, but he doesn't care.

I always lie and say there’s a family history of whatever test I need. So if I want an endoscopy, I suddenly have a grandma who had stomach cancer.

Why do I keep picturing a male doctor? I’m not saying it’s not other doctors, I’m sure egos abound. But that’s who formed in my mind as you spoke. A man.

Told my doctor I think I have POTS. She dismissed it as vertigo. Went back 6 months later and just told her my symptoms. She said “hmm, you might have POTS. Let’s get you to a cardiologist.”
