I need to vent. I have been reading on the news lately that so many people have been ignored about their health conditions. Doctors have told them they have anxiety or depressed well of course they are because doctors don’t listen, we know are bodies better then anyone. These poor people all were diagnosed with cancer of some sort all in stage 4. Even John Schneider was talking about this because his wife was dealing with same issue. We need to demand to be heard. My body hurts from top of my head to bottom of my feet, I know there is more going on besides AS. Not going back to Rheumatologist waste of time. So I’ll see my primary and let her deal with my issues at least she listens. Thanks for letting me vent . Would love to hear fr from everyone

Been ignored, now I can't even go be ignored by docs since I have no insurance.

I can definitely chime into say I’ve had countless doctors over the years and really none have listened.

Yep, happens. About 50% of the time I feel like a doctor doesn't listen

Yeah doctors can be a huge problem. My AS went undiagnosed because my first rheumatologist said I had RA, nothing else, and my back pain was imaginary. It's insane to me.

Yes me too. these are a few I have seen also
Unfortunately this has been going on for years. I personally have noticed more and more articles coming out in the media in the last few years. I hope more articles will continue in the future. Because change definitely needs to happen. https://www.everydayhealth.com/news/when-just-cough-actually-stage-iv-lung-cancer/ https://www.today.com/health/colorectal-cancer-young-people-man-23-has-stage-4-cancer-t210360
