In this compelling episode, I sit down with Alex Mitchell, the inspiring host of the Invisible Iconic Podcast and the innovative Founder of Invisible Iconic and Endo Circle.
My wife suffers from endo, and potentially a bunch of other undiagnosed problems. The gaslighting from some medical staff has been very frustrating. ‘Oh, you are worrying over nothing’, is a phrase she has heard numerous times.
They forget that you have likely put up with the problem for months, before booking an appt with a doctor. To be dismissed, and almost belittled just for asking for help, is so common it is almost unbelievable.
This was such an interesting chat.
