Emily's Story: Diagnosed by a Podcast
The Medical Detectives - Un podcast de Soft Skills Media - Les mercredis

Catégories:
In this episode of Medical Detectives, Emily shares her staggering 17-year diagnostic odyssey, starting at age 17 with a seemingly mild ankle sprain that never fully resolved, and winding through years of dismissals, generic compression socks, and contradictory specialist visits. Through her story, we uncover the compounding harm of miscommunication, underdiagnosis, and the dismissal of patients. But everything changes when Emily hears an episode of this very podcast, which sparks a realization that ultimately leads her to discover that she actually was diagnosed five years ago, it's just that nobody took the time to tell her.
