Medical Fat-Shaming

This is disgustingly real. There are doctors in many states that will refuse to treat you if you’re ten pounds “overweight”. They don’t treat you as a person, they treat you like a number on the scale that somehow makes them feel superior. It is unacceptable behavior. Don’t EVER be afraid to get a second, third, or even fourth opinion. You are your own best advocate for your health. If a doctor is disrespectful, find one who has their shit together. Don’t pay anyone who cannot treat you like a human-being.
