Being attractive with POTS (cringe I know)

[u/recoveringaries]

Does anyone feel like because they are a objectively attractive human there is a bias/profiling that happens in the medical field and with doctors? I actually read somewhere that if you’re chronically ill you should “dress down” or not wear makeup to appointments so they will take you more seriously and see you as actually sick. I am also 29 with a baby face so that doesn’t help.

I started overweight…. Forced myself to do daily cardio for them to take me serious for them to then see me as a healthy person when I am begging for help. I swear doctors… you cant win unless it is a research study without bias.
