i need yall to hold me accountabke so i actaully call the doctor tmr for another hospital referral pls

i injured it like back in july and like ... it was really bad, i didnt have feeling in my knee (it came back tho, after 3 months) and it was super swollen
i went to the hospital with it but they just brushed it off, but it never got bak to normal but it als wasnt bad enough to go again u know?
anyways lst week i fell on my knee again and its really bad again

very swollen, very hurty, and i keep accidentally bumping it into stuff at work and internall die everytime !!!

im kinda sacred the doctor again will just be like "yeah thats swollen, give it time" like NO pls just do SOME tests. because this is not just normal bruise level of injury

ive had a looong history of being dismissed by doctors when i was seriously ill (almost died once even) so im just. very scared of doctor never taking me seriously and it keeps turning out to be true!! like normally you would be like "thats just ur anxiety talking" but then it keeps happening exactly like my worst case scenario made it out to be in my head lol

its so hard to take care of yourself when you are really scared of the doctors and they keep giving u reasons to not trust them ;__;

but i will ask my social worker if she can come with me and hopefully being two people + her not being as easily brushed off as me will be enough so that they at least seriously look at it this time and dont just say "yeah looks bad, idk, give it time"
because i gave ti time and it didnt go back to normal !!

Yeah. I despise when people are so dismissive, especially professionals. But good on you on getting someone to go with you!! It should go well 🙏
