How to Advocate for Yourself
This past weekend, I hosted the very first Baltimore Flow meetup. It was small but AMAZING. It's incredibly cathartic to spend just a couple hours with people who know exactly what you've been through -- and being able to share what I've learned along the way made it feel (almost) worth it.
If you have endometriosis or you know someone with endo, you probably won't be surprised to learn that our stories can be pretty similar. Maybe not in terms of symptoms or physical experiences, but when it comes to years-long histories with dismissive doctors, misdiagnoses, and being told misinformation, it's a disturbingly trite story.
