I had a doctor for 8 years. My labs said I was malnourished. And he asked if I had gastric bypass because he only sees numbers like that in people who’ve had that. I said no. And he said I think you’re lying to me. I said who would have referred me to get it. You’ve been my doctor for the last 8 years. Also I don’t have a scar on my stomach. I never saw him again. I was overweight and that was the only explanation. It was actually cuz I had an untreated eating disorder and a metabolic mutation that eats up B vitamins more rapidly. And being on a vegan/vegetarian diet was slowly killing me.
That is appalling. It breaks my heart to hear that. After 8 years…that’s SO disturbing.
I really wanted to shine a light on this because I am OVERWHELMED by the number of horror stories like yours that I’ve heard through the years. It’s just not right.
