I kind of got good news today 🤷♀️
The American healthcare system is fucked though, especially with women’s issues. 
Discussion
That sounds like Canada! Samesies!!!
It’s fucking ridiculous. Thank god I work in the medical field and have a slight upper hand and correctly advocating for myself. It’s a nightmare
Yes thank God you do.
In my conversations with our midwife, I've come to realize that a lot of healthcare for women has basically been the functional equivalent of some guy throwing his arms up in the air in exasperation saying "Fuck it, I don't know, cut it off maybe!?"
There's a long way to go but there are those of us who listen at least long enough to know when to step aside and when to take appropriate action.
My wife and I try our best and I try to be as supportive and reasonable as possible for her when she needs that.
Well thank God for that!
There’s a general lack of research for a lot of these issues too and funding despite the prevalence. 1/10 women have what I have and like 0.02% of doctors even know what to do with it
Yeah that's what the Midwife said as well.
I've thought about interviewing her and maybe some others and doing a bit of a documentary about it but I've never started that project.
The American healthcare system is so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so profoundly fucked.
Yes. From hospitals to pharmacies and everything in between.
probs about only 6.31% of problems come from pharmacies and hospitals
1-2% from shitty doctors and nurses
91.69% of the problems with healthcare stems from “insurance” companies, lawyers, and the government.
And number 3 often causes number 2 😂
Your statistics are oddly on point 🤣
To many administrative people.

Any thoughts about the Free Market Medical Association? Dunno too much about them but I know Dr. Keith Smith is one of its founders. Dr. Smith also founded the Surgery Center of Oklahoma and they've been doing God's work by working outside of insurance cartels
Fucking A. I work in the medical field and have found that I don't like what I'm a part of, so I'm leaving. Everyone who has ever told me "don't be negative" or "I wouldn't complain" can AALLLLLL get fucked.
I 💯 understand.
🫂 More power to anyone who has dedicated themselves to the field. I hope they have better experiences in it than I have
I’m in the field, but I have a lot more flexibility in who I can work for (could be private practice or SNF, doesn’t have to be hospitals). It’s still super frustrating, I’m just not good at anything else 😂
🫡 Thank you for your service. I work to help others, not to beat money out of them like a piñata
That’s another good thing about the niche I picked, I technically can work in private practice and do whatever the fuck I want (e.g., not take insurance at all/use a sliding scale or even just say fuck it and treat for free). The problem is, the type of patients I love working with the most are in the hospitals. So it’s kind of tough.
Should’ve got crowdhealth
That's great news and I'm sorry to here that [sic].
