Too many “doctors” have told me that I’m just whining and the Mayo Clinic is just some expensive place for privileged people and the reason I haven’t eaten for months is because I don’t want to.
This entire time I have said over and over that I didn’t want any medical advice. I have said that I only gave updates because people asked me to.
Frankly, I wanted to do one single rant and be done with it.
Now I’m sorry I ever said anything because people would rather harass me over it.
I really didn’t expect to be harassed on the day that I finally got some good news about my health. Thanks, Lemmy.
I’ll just stick to my normal communities where people don’t pretend to be doctors.
Edit: if you actually want to know how I’m doing and do not want to lecture me or tell me your theories or give me treatment suggestions, feel free to send a private message.
People, man… What a bunch of bastards.
Worst part… You’re one of them!
Sir, I am a dog.
no u
Mod jumping in. Sorry to have missed the reports, most of us were asleep when they happened.
Thank you for everyone who reported harassing comments. We are going to have a look now, and probably ban a few people.
See you around.
I finally got some good news about my health.
I’m happy you got good news! I’m celebrating with you. I know it has been a long road.
Sorry my man. I was just here listening.
Man I saw that back and forth with the piece of angry man-trash in the last thread. Sorry dude, I’ve been reading the updates from the beginning, wishing you answers, leads, anything.
Just wanted to put a post down and say you are a good dude!
I was gonna say that hell is the US healthcare system and needing multiple appointments especially when it involves a long drive and trial-and-error. But apparently hell is still other people (on top of the other stuff).
Either way, good luck. Too bad we aren’t to the point where it’d be possible to walk down the street and get some cheap automated help, even if it’s just some type of scan that’d streamline things (not that I really trust magic-box AI).
Hey man I’m coming to this late, and I’m sorry to hear you were getting harassed. That sucks anytime it happens, but it’s especially shitty when you’re going through such a rough and vulnerable time. I’m glad you had some good news about your health, though! Hang in there, I’m rooting for you.
There is unfortunately a lot of assholes that lack basic reading comprehension around, sorry you had to deal with them. Best of luck in the future.
I’ve only become aware of these updates today - not fully caught up with the details, but I wish you the best and hope for a positive outcome with everything going on.
It’s disappointing that some users can’t help but violate others’ boundaries and harass, especially on a topic as sensitive as healthcare.
Sharing a digital hug/handshake/best regards from me to you!
Sorry to hear that mate. People suck sometimes, I’m rooting for you though.
Happy to hear you got some good news, it’s always hard to see a pillar of the community struggling.
The whole point of the Rexodus was to find/create a place more friendly and helpful to the average user. Hope you find a tratment path forward that works for you, and keeps you active.
Sorry you had a bad experience, hope things improve for you!
Here’s to your good health mate. Hope you find yourself on the mend and some answers for what ails you. Not knowing can be as bad as the malaise in my experience.
Had an uncle drive himself to near insanity over a change in his body and while eventually the diagnosis came back terminal, the knowledge that he was right and all those who would not support his concerns had to eat their dismissals was a small comfort.
I’m sorry this happened, I can’t give you advice without consent. I don’t understand why others think there entitled to break your boundaries about it. It’s your life, not there’s. Just know there’s people out here, however small, will respect your boundaries.
I’m new to this saga and I think maybe the comments aren’t all loading.
But the only negativity I can see is the post where the title asked people to let you know if they have had enough of these updates, to be fair.
