This hits way too close to home, just reading it makes me anxious, and it is not all males! Things like, "you are just a hysterical femaIe on your period" (from a man) to "you cannot be allergic to lettuce, it is only water" (from a female)!
I have to do a walk in on Monday and am dreading it... allergic reaction. Sadly, previous visits to doctors such as this, small town no where else to go and no choices, I have developed severe white coat syndrome which freaks everyone out which freaks me out more. Sadly, it also keeps me from doing annual check ups.
