Women’s Pain
First and foremost, my heart goes out to the victims - for their pain, for the aftermath, for being gaslit, etc. This podcast does a great job talking about the overall issue in healthcare of believing women and especially women’s pain levels. While we have come a long way, there is still so much more to do. I, like so many others, have a traumatic experience of a situation being minimized, not believed, told you shouldn’t be feeling what you’re feeling, made to feel like it’s your fault, not adequately cared for/listened to during medical events for a multitude of reasons, and then have that medical trauma continue to be minimized afterward. It’s not just Yale, but I’m glad she is reporting on this and at least holding them and their staff publicly accountable and everyone can learn from these situations, hold themselves to higher standards, to treat the whole person not just work towards an outcome no matter the cost.

Can’t believe what these women had to endure😳 Can’t wait for the next episodes to learn more! Unfortunately, these events are not uncommon… opioid addiction is a real threat! My heart goes out to the patients who had to experience this… esp with a procedure such as IVF. 😞
