Medical gaslighting is real. For two weeks, I’ve experienced numbness and tingling on my left side. It became so frightening that I went to the ER. They tried to convince me that I was just stressed and anxious. The nurse suggested that it could be radiation from cellphone use. I’m not stressed or anxious. Also, my phone stays on “do not disturb.” This is why I typically avoid seeking medical attention.
