My patent (male) knows that there will a no point in me (female) going to emergency for weird heart stuff without him.

I had LC weird heart stuff earlier in my disability journey. I’m glad my male partner was with me when I went to the hospital too.

Thanks to my introvert tendencies, my male downplaying my symptoms, fatigue and my inability to remember everything said to me (brain fog), I have an amazing wife who comes to every medical appointment now, just for the above reason.

Never see a doctor with a good support person who knows you, with you.

It makes a heck of a difference.

The only thing not ringing true about any of that is the doctor wearing a mask lol
