I'm so tired of seeing men make comments that are literally just a rewording of the original post written by someone who isn't a man.
Just stop doing this.
Not only isn't it necessary, but it pushes the harmful idea that nothing is valid unless it's rubber-stamped by a man's explanation of it.

#PuppyKillerNoem (falsely, natch) claimed the #Minneapolis woman who was shot & killed "ran over an #ICE agent"... not "attempted to" (which she didn't do either)... but DID do.
We've all seen the video. No one was run over.

If you are a #Writer or #Author whose stories include any type of cautionary or dystopian tale, no matter how fantastical or how historical, you MUST read this thread by a woman living in Korea during their their coup attempt. It is riveting and you will learn quite a bit that you can apply in your own work. You will be horrified, and amazed by what common people and the legislature did, and how topical the story is.I ended up having to follow her to be able to read the whole thread, and I suggest that you do, too. Boost so your followers can read this.

What’s happened to curiosity in medicine? A story of two appointments.
If you’re a healthcare worker and your patient says they’re in pain, a medication isn’t working or something doesn’t seem right … listen to them. If what they’re saying seems “odd”… don’t dismiss them out of hand. Get curious. Ask questions. Listen to the patient.
The human body is incredible and unique. We all respond in different ways - and we learn more about the human condition every day. If something isn’t “adding up”… it could be a missed diagnosis.
Here’s one of my most frustrating examples:
I go to the doctor with a strange type of infection that is usually only seen in end stage AIDS patients.
Doctor: “Have you been tested for HIV?”
Me: “Yes - it was negative.”
Doctor: “huh. You sure? Let’s test you again.”
It comes back negative AGAIN
Me: “so what now?”
Doctor: “I don’t know. That’s really weird. Here’s the medication we would give you IF you had AIDS.”
That was IT. No follow up. Zero curiosity. No testing to determine WHY I had an infection only seen in AIDS patients when I did not have AIDS. Heck they wouldn’t even run an immune panel to take a closer look at my CD4 and CD8 count. It was just “sorry about your luck but this is not my problem.”
Contrast that with one of my BEST experiences with a VERY curious doctor:
I was there for suspected POTS which I was diagnosed with. In the process the cardiologist found an aneurysm and felt that given my age, lifestyle and persistently LOW blood pressure it was “odd” for me to have one.
She gave me a huge questionnaire of seemingly unrelated questions to fill out - about everything from dental issues to gynaecology and what I was like as a young child.
She reviewed the questionnaire with me and really took the time to LISTEN. We talked about previous illnesses, injuries, surgeries and how I felt in my body. I was treated like the expert - which had never happened before.
I left that appointment exhausted and stunned as it was the first time a doctor had worked so collaboratively with me. I was referred to genetics where I was finally given the diagnosis that put all the missing pieces together - EDS (Ehlers Danlos Syndrome).
The signs had been there for years - but no one ever slowed down and spoke to me long enough to realize it. No one was curious enough. No one asked me what it was like to be in MY body.
It seems so simple - yet it’s a skill many healthcare workers lack.
My ask of them tonight is to listen to your patient. Let them be partners in their care. Respect that while they may not have a medical degree - they are the experts in their own body and can help you if you let them.
Be curious. Always.

When I was a teenager - my mom’s pancreatic cancer was misdiagnosed as “anxiety.” The experience shaped my view of the healthcare system & the damage that bias, gaslighting and psychologizing illnesses can cause.
Pancreatic cancer is among the most deadly cancers - and is almost always diagnosed too late. My mom had led a very healthy life with few medical setbacks until she suddenly presented with intense itching, bruising and some back pain.
She was literally black and blue from scratching and completely unable to stop because of its severity. So she went to the doctor.
The diagnosis? Anxiety.
I remember her coming home from the doctors and telling me they said she was just anxious because it was the start of a new school year (she was a teacher). I was livid on her behalf because I could see the severity of the bruises - this was clearly NOT anxiety.
This was before the internet and social media - so it was harder to research these things on your own or talk to other patients. Challenging doctors was fairly unheard of. So she continued on and we even put oven mitts on her hands at night to avoid damaging her skin.
A few weeks later she woke up jaundiced so we took her back to the doctor. He immediately ran labs and the results were so bad she was admitted to hospital for urgent testing.
They discovered a blockage in her bile duct which was causing the itching AND the jaundice. We could tell from the speed everyone was moving it was likely bad news - but tried to remain hopeful that perhaps it was something benign.
When the results came back that it was pancreatic cancer the whole family was shocked. Mom was only 47 with no major risk factors and in good health. How could she have terminal cancer?
She fought for 9 months before succumbing to cancer in 2001. During that time I learned - the hard way - how easily some doctors can dismiss patients with "anxiety". Especially women. I learned to be a fierce advocate for myself because of what happened to her.
It is troubling that something as serious as terminal pancreatic cancer was fluffed off because they saw a healthy, petite, slightly anxious middle aged woman. It never should have happened & caused a lot of trauma when the diagnosis was revealed. 1/2

I see far too many chronic illness patients being dismissed from the ER for “faking”. Is there not a duty to run tests to ensure something isn’t missed before discharging someone as a fake? Given the consequences could literally be their life?
This happened to me years ago -
I had major OB GYN surgery and a week later was getting worse not better. Weak, in pain, swollen, loss of appetite etc. Went to the ER and was treated like a “nuisance” and asked what I “expected” after major surgery. I tried to explain I expected to improve a little each day - and I was clearly decompensating.They decided I was faking and sent me home. This repeated 3 times over the course of a week - each time I was sent home without any tests.
Finally my then boyfriend took me in for a 4th time - literally carrying me to triage because I could no longer stand up. They got angry and said “we’ve already told her there’s nothing we can do.” He said he wasn’t taking me home to die. He demanded they run tests. The situation escalated but they finally acquiesced to the most basic blood work and an ultrasound. I’m incredibly fortunate they listened to him - and incredibly angry it took a man causing a scene to get me care.
Turns out I had a hugely elevated white blood count, a ferritin of zero and a hemoglobin of 63. I had a massive infected abscess in my abdomen that had been caused by an internal bleed left unchecked for weeks. I was rushed to emergency surgery and needed multiple rounds of blood transfusions and spent weeks in the hospital.
Had I gone home - I more than likely would have died. Had I been alone - I would have died. It should never be this way and from what I’m hearing from other patients it’s only gotten worse since Covid.
Please listen to your patients. We KNOW our bodies. Listen to women & marginalized individuals… don’t make us bring someone else to tell our story. Listen to people who come back over and over again - they clearly need help. Have some compassion and don’t assume someone is faking just because you don’t see an obvious issue.

According to a #legacyMedia outlet here in #Australia, the #UK are undergoing a #gasShortage due to a local problem with their #gas mains.
Maybe rather than using the word '#gaslighting' we can start using, '#gasSlighting'?
What do you think?
