Yeah. I’ve a friend who kept getting dismissed by the doctors when they came with worries about their heart, because they were diagnosed with generalised anxiety. Apparently if you’re living with anxiety you’re also immune to heart problems!
Doesn’t help that someone close to them died because of late medical intervention, which only happened because the person’s partner insisted that they fake a fainting episode as the medical system had repeatedly dismissed them when previously asking for help with their problem. Everything was fine and dandy until they didn’t pass out, then oops, too late to treat the cancer, have a nice rest of your life.
Can’t even blame individual doctors though, I think it has a lot to do with understaffing and overworking. The people who matter aren’t cared for and thus can’t properly care for the people they are obliged to care for. It all serves the bottom line of the elite because they can pocket more money.
Or a mentally troubled patient. Or a black patient. Or a woman.
