your doctor can be the person you trust the most in the world
you can think they are genuinely doing everything they can
and they can get on the ground on their hands and knees sobbing and tell you that your symptoms or conditions have no treatment, and that they super promise they looked, and they could wail while they say they wish they could take your pain away from you but there are no more tests or treatments anywhere
and still be lying to an extent where googling your own damn medical conditions or symptoms will readily pop up a shitload of already existing, well-known treatments that can boil down to a pill or few a day. or that diagnosis relies on some specific but relatively straightforward tests
and in fact I have heard probably hundreds of stories that boil down to exactly that. if your doctor tells you the only treatments for POTS are salt or propranolol or exercise, or none at all, or that it can be ruled out without a tilt table or nasa lean test (especially if they say "your blood tested negative for POTS" when there literally is no POTS blood test), your doctor fucking SUCKS
by the way, back when my doctors promised I had POTS and nothing more severe: my actual tilt table test results showed orthostatic hypotension and autonomic failure, conditions that are significantly more deadly, from the very beginning. I had orthostatic hypotension and bradycardia (low heart rate) instead of just heart rate go up, which was a big indicator that I was fucking dying. on the tilt table my blood pressure was 70/30. I almost died multiple times due to misdiagnosis and lack of appropriate treatment and my length and quality of life will now forever be worse because of how long it took me to get treatment. I can never get my life back and will likely never be able to be fully independent in the way others can, and I will likely remain in pain every single day for the rest of my life while my conditions continue to get worse over time, as has been the case for a very long time.
DO NOT BECOME RUNE. I COULD HAVE BEEN SAVED FROM MOST OF THE HELL I WAS FORCED TO LIVE. GET ACCESS TO YOUR MEDICAL CHART AND LOOK AT IT ASAP

what is it that they say? a young man asks the sage why there are no longer dragons. the old man says "dragons are the same. something happened to your eyes"

BREAKING: 21-year-old protester, Kaden Rummler, was shot point-blank in the face by ICE. he just spoke about how he’s blind for life and almost died:
“I will be blind for life. I have fractures in my skull that they can't fix. They pulled a piece of plastic the size of a nickel out of my eye. I had shards of metal, glass, and plastic behind my eye and in my skull. They said it was a miracle I survived.”
What the hell is wrong with these people?
GoFundMe for Kaden Rummler, the young trans man blinded by ICE agents this week.

how do you explain to someone that this is your sense of humour

“What could the audio possibly be?”
*unmutes*
“Oh,”
If I ever don’t laugh at this, assume I died.
