I get to go to the #emergencyroom because I have an #abscessed #tonsil. This is after a different doctor said that my throat looked “not swollen” and I was experiencing “allergies”. Please for the love of god everybody, try and #advocate for your own #health and get a #secondopinion if something doesn’t seem right.

A friend was recently diagnosed with #LiverDisease. Trying to do some research around #LivingDonor organ transplants & whether someone with cirrhosis damage can qualify.
The hospital she’s currently working with doesn’t do living donor transplants, wondering if seeking a #SecondOpinion is worthwhile, or if she won’t be able to qualify for a living donor anywhere.

👎»Jeg er 100 procent sikker på – hvis man ellers kan være det – at de ikke er omskåret«.
»Derfor tænker man, at der er nødt til at blive gjort noget. Forældrene er jo stemplet på livstid for at have omskåret deres døtre. Det kan man ikke bare lade ligge. Man bliver optaget af det, når man er så tæt på. Dybt i hjertet kan jeg ikke have det. Det er så stor en uretfærdighed. Det gør ondt. Meget ondt«. #dkret #justitsmord #omskæring #Retslægerådet #uvildighed #SecondOpinion http://politiken.dk/9162427
