I may have ‘leveled up’ in my medical self-advocacy 😂.
Rather than stewing on a response/only speaking up later, I just *reflexively* & sternly snapped at a doctor:
“Do NOT misdiagnose me with anxiety when I am upset with you over the mishandling of my medical care.”

She had just patronizingly begun saying “I can see you have a lot of anxiety over this,” because she could hear in my voice that I was upset at her disrupting my current pain management meds for my autoimmune disease because the pain meds also help w/kidney stone pain.
My family practice doctor is refusing to do any further treatment or support for my kidney stone pain until I get imaging AND come to the office. Despite the fact that I’ve had two previous confirmed stones (one on imaging, one sent to the lab) this calendar year.
