Disclaimer- The stories you are about to hear are the personal experiences of each individual and the views expressed by guests are their own. Please listen with discretion as this series contains mature content that could possibly be triggering to some individuals. Mention of depression, suicidal ideation, medical trauma, sexual assault, disorder eating and other sensitive topics may come up. Please listen at your own discretion and remember this podcast is never meant to be taken as medical advice. The stories in the It's Not Just A Bad Period Series are difficult to listen to. And I want to keep it that way because they aren't just stories, but the harrowing realities of each warrior that is bravely taking part. Although endometriosis was first identified over 160 years ago, substantial gaps in adequately addressing this disease remains. From research being severely underfunded to outdated medical procedures still being used, this disease is a beast to live with but existing in the current medical system makes it exponentially worse! I wish I could say these circumstances only exist for a few unlucky warriors but that’s not true. This is the typical experience of an endometriosis warrior and it’s time the world hears it! In this episode you will meet Samantha, as a passionate and thankful member of the endo community she shares how social media has helped her advocate for herself on the road to diagnosis. From multiple surgeries, a hysterectomy and hormonal therapy that exasperated Sam's coexisting depression she stood up for herself and the treatment she knows she deserves! But like most endo warriors, she was unable to escape the decade long wait to be believed. When she finally found a doctor that took her seriously she was then faced with the glaring reality that most gynecologist lack the skills and knowledge to manage endometriosis. Fed up with ineffective treatment after ineffective treatment Sam made the difficult and finically hefty decision to pursue excision surgery with an expert in the endo field. She is currently in the process of fundraising for her excision surgery, something many warriors have to do. Let's show her the love and support of Best Worst Club and donate to her fundraiser if possible. No amount is too small, donate here! https://gofund.me/680e3750 *Last week's episode (9/7/2022) was not published due to the effects from Hurricane Ian tearing through parts of Florida, where the podcast is produced. This week's episode is not sponsored and instead we're asking our listeners to consider donating to Hurricane relief efforts. There is a fellow chronic illness warrior who's family lost multiple cars and had significant water damage inside their home.
