I'm more and more convinced that POTS/EDS/MCAS aren't rare diseases, they're just criminally under-diagnosed because they tend to affect women. FWIW, POTS is much more manageable with medication (e.g. Midodrine and Florinef).
I just can't understand this argument. Women already live 5 years longer than men on average. You mean to tell me if the system didn't discriminate so strongly against their best interest they'd live even longer than men?
Women have a hard time getting symptoms, esp around pain, taken seriously. Oftentimes these symptoms are downplayed or ignored, regardless of the sex/gender of the medical professional.
It's like you completely disregarded my comment and decided instead to just proselytize.
I don't understand your argument. Just because women live longer on average, they're supposed to live in pain without treatment?
In reality they get about 7 times the allocated health expenditure that males get.
