Okayokay.. so I had a hearing appointment today and the doctor looked me straight in the face and told me that I was fine.. I have had so many doctors look at me straight in the face and told me that it was all in my head. I have POTs so I've definitely experienced medical gaslighting. but with my hearing..? its absolutely horrible... the test said that I have moderate too severe hearing loss. and yet he still looked at me and said I was fine.. I didn't think my audiologist would do that.. I understand about my chronic illness but... my hearing too?
