What happens when the medical system sees your body as the problem before you even speak? In this solo episode, Dr. Marianne shares her recent experience navigating healthcare as a fat, neurodivergent woman—and the toll of being met with medical gaslighting, invalidation, and bias at every turn. From sensory overload in clinical settings to the exhaustion of advocating for basic care, this episode explores the intersection of fatphobia, ableism, and chronic pain in medical spaces. If you've ever felt unseen or blamed in a doctor's office, you're not imagining it—and you're not alone.

It's 2025, and women are still fighting to be believed, especially in medicine. From being told “it's all in your head” to waiting years for a real diagnosis, many women know the silent sting of being dismissed. This experience has a name: medical gaslighting — and it's more common than you might think.  In this powerful episode of Get Back to Your Life®, we meet Jakki, a VSI patient, mental health counselor, former athlete, and mother of three who endured 24 years of pain, misdiagnoses, and blatant medical dismissal. But Jakki refused to accept “there's nothing wrong.”  Her story is a testament to persistence: when no one could explain her pain, she enrolled in radiology courses just to read her scans. Eventually, she found her answer — and her healing — through a diagnosis of Bertolotti Syndrome with Dr. Colin Haines at VSI. This is a breakthrough story for women everywhere. Jakki's comeback story is one of strength, self-advocacy, and breakthrough — not just in her body, but in a system that too often turns down the volume on women's pain. In this episode, you'll learn: What medical gaslighting looks and feels like Why being dismissed can be so dangerous How to advocate for yourself in the healthcare system The signs that it's time to seek a second opinion How persistence - and the right doctor - can change everything Whether you, too, have been talked over, brushed off, or are still searching for your own answers, this episode will stay with you. This is a story about validation, self-advocacy, hope and most importantly….solutions. And it demands to be heard.

Wenn man bei seinen Ärzt*innen nicht richtig ernst genommen wird, nennt man das "Medical Gaslighting". Kölncampus-Reporterin Ricarda erklärt, was es damit auf sich hat.

Send us a textAre your symptoms being dismissed by doctors? Do you struggle with gut issues, anxiety, sleep disturbances, or joint pain? You're not alone! Today, we welcome Dr. Efrat LaMandre, PhD, FNP-C—better known as Dr. E, the NP with the PhD—to talk about the real causes behind these symptoms, the truth about hormone replacement therapy (HRT), and how functional medicine differs from conventional approaches.Dr. E is the author of the best-selling book, It's Not In Your Head, where she exposes medical gaslighting and helps patients reclaim their health. In this episode, we cover:

Many people with Hashimoto's have experienced it—the frustration of knowing something is wrong but being repeatedly dismissed by doctors. This week, Inna welcomes Dr. Efrat Lamandre (Dr. E) to uncover why so many thyroid patients struggle to get answers and how medical gaslighting keeps them stuck in a cycle of misdiagnosis and neglect.Dr. E, a best-selling author and expert in patient advocacy, explains why conventional medicine often overlooks key thyroid issues. She shares how doctors are trained to rely on a limited set of tools, without digging deeper. When those tests come back “normal,” patients are told their symptoms aren't real or that their fatigue, weight gain, and brain fog must be due to stress or aging. But the reality? Hashimoto's and thyroid dysfunction go far beyond TSH, and without the right tests, people can go undiagnosed for years.Inna and Dr. E dive into the most common signs of medical gaslighting and why it happens, from unnecessary weight loss advice to outright dismissal of symptoms. They also reveal why conventional providers often refuse to run crucial tests. Heather's story, a real-life case from Inna's Thyroid Mystery Solved program illustrates how damaging this dismissal can be and why proper testing and advocacy make all the difference.Beyond lab tests, Dr. E emphasizes an often-overlooked key to healing: nervous system regulation. Before addressing diet, supplements, or detox, the body needs to feel safe, something many Hashimoto's patients don't even realize is missing. She shares simple yet powerful ways to support the nervous system that anyone can do right away.If you've ever felt dismissed by your doctor or wondered why your symptoms aren't taken seriously, this episode will open your eyes to the truth about thyroid care—and, more importantly, empower you with the knowledge to take control of your health.See full show here:https://innatopiler.com/podcasts/doctors-dismissing-hashimotos-symptoms-medical-gaslighting/For more information about everything Hashimoto's please visit InnaTopiler.comIf you are struggling to lose weight with Hashimoto's, Inna has a 10 day plan just for you at InnaTopiler.com/jumpstartIf you don't yet know your thyroid type, please be sure you sign up for Inna's next free training at InnaTopiler.com/training

Ein Gespräch mit der Sportwissenschaftlerin, Schlaf- und Fatigue-Coachin Dr. Sabrina Han.Kennst du „Friluftsliv“ (Die norwegische „Natur-Lebensphilosophie“)? Oder warst du schon auf dem Jakobsweg? Nein, Sabrina hat beides schon erlebt und zwar zusammen mit Frauen nach einer Brustkrebsdiagnose. Damit sind wir nicht nur im Handumdrehen in der Winterwelt des Nordens und im heißen Süden Europas, sondern fast schon spirituell unterwegs.Niemand assoziiert diese beiden „Konzepte“ mit sportwissenschaftlichen Themen. Richtig? Ich zumindest nicht.Aber genau das waren die Ursprünge für Sabrinas jetzigen beruflichen Schwerpunkt, das Fatigue-Coaching. Es ist so spannend, ihren Erzählungen zu lauschen. Wie es den Frauen in den 40 Tagen auf dem von ihr organisierten „Erfahrungsweg“ ergangen ist. Welche Entwicklungen sie im Laufe dieser Zeit gemacht haben.Wir sprechen außerdem über: Das sogenannte Pacing bei Fatigue, was natürlich naheliegt, gerade wenn sich Krebspatienten auf den Jakobsweg machen. Wie erkenne ich Fatigue bei mir und was sind die Symptome? Wir sprechen über „Medical Gaslighting“. Also darüber, wenn das Leiden nicht anerkannt und sogar heruntergespielt wird. Wir reden über die „Energiesparwende“ und das ungünstige „Energie-Ping-Pong“. Um sich nicht ausgeliefert zu fühlen, hilft Planung. Die 30:30 Methode ist eine energiebringende Tempowechsel-Technik, die sie uns als eine Möglichkeit vorstellt.Interessant ist auch, dass Fatigue manchmal schon vor der Krebsdiagnose da ist. Der Körper gibt schon früh Signale. Wir sprechen über die Bedeutung der Bewegung: „Bewegung ist das wertvollste Element, was du wählen kannst.“, sagt Sabrina. Bewegung und der Schlaf sind extrem gute Partner. Beides zahlt füreinander ein.Im (Tief-)Schlaf laufen die Reparaturprozesse ab. Deshalb ist guter Schlaf so wichtig. Wie wir dahinkommen, das macht sie sehr anschaulich klar. Ich sage nur „Tatütata“ (einfach rein hören :-)). Gedankenhygiene am Tag für die Schlafhygiene in der Nacht und so die Emotionen von den Situation trennen. Wir sprechen über Schlafmenge und -qualität und über Chronotypen.Zum Schluss geht es m ihre Bücher für „Neu-Erwachsene“ aus der Reihe „Initiative für echtes Leben“. Interessant, welche Parallelen es zu dem Leben nach der Diagnose und dem neuen Leben danach gibt. Denn auch bei uns geht es nach der Therapie um den Neustart in ein anderes Leben.SHOWNOTES Alles über Dr. Sabrina Han und ihre Arbeit und wie du mit ihr Kontakt aufnehmen kannst, findest du auf ihrer Webseite:Schlafcoaching mit Dr. Sabrina Han | erfolgreich schlafen Den von ihr entwickelten FATIGUE-SELBSTTEST findest du hier: www.erfolgreich-schlafen.de/Fatigue-selbsttest.Ihre Bücher:  Initiative für Echtes Leben | Persönlichkeitsentwicklung Außerdem interessant: Sabrina war auch zu Gast im Podcast „Fasy.nation“: „Fasy.nation“ Titel: Hilfe bei ME/CFS 6 Long Covid.

[TRIGGER WARNING: Suicidal ideation]“Most of the things I did were not given to me by my practitioners because they had no clue what was going on.” - Dr. Madhu BagariaWalking the path of complex chronic illness is a difficult one. Even when we're highly motivated and have the technical understanding as practitioners, it's never that simple. One specialist can't solve everything, but that doesn't mean there's no hope. Rather than focusing only on symptom management, we must embrace a holistic approach that addresses the physical, mental and spiritual aspects as a whole.Toda,y I'm excited to introduce you to one of my colleagues, Dr. Madhu Bagaria, an endometriosis surgeon who struggled for years with severe chronic pain. Despite Dr. Bagaria's position as a medical doctor, she experienced firsthand the frustration many women feel when navigating the healthcare system. Despite seeing a series of specialists, no one tried to uncover and address the root causes of her pain and instead offered her opioids and anti-depressants.In this conversation, Dr. Bagaria and I discuss the complexities of chronic illness and pain, her struggles with fibromyalgia, what a holistic approach to patient care looks like, the benefits of integrating Eastern and Western medicine, the importance of emotional, psychological, and spiritual bodies in healing, the role of support networks, mindfulness practices, self-advocacy, and more.Enjoy the episode, and let's innovate and integrate together!Learn more or watch the video version of this conversation at https://integrativewomenshealthinstitute.com/endometriosis-and-the-pain-of-medical-gaslighting-with-endometriosis-surgeon-dr-madhu-bagaria-md-facog/.Connect with me and access our entire platform at IntegrativeWomensHealthInstitute.com (https://integrativewomenshealthinstitute.com/).

Send us a textIn this episode I have returning guests; Patrick Ussher a person living with ME/CFS for the last 6 years, he has a Youtube channel "Understanding ME/CFS" in which he talks about research into ME/CFS and Long Covid in an accessible way. He has written a medical hypothesis on the potential cause of excessive thirst following being misdiagnosed with psychogenic water drinking. I also have Peter Deen, whom is the founder of a start up company Streasure4health, Streasure4Health is developing an objective diagnosis and scalable diagnostic sensor for LongCovid and ME/CFS, which are rooted in their underlying mechanisms. It has developed an innovative approach to clinically map metabolic stress for the first time. Following on from the last podcast we discuss Patrick's personal journey with ME/CFS, how he had excessive thirst and would drink up to 20 litres of fluid per day. Patrick explains how this led to medical gaslighting following a hospital admission and subsequently his journey to his book "The myth of primary polydipsia" which is free to download, press on the link below for your copy.

At 29, Sarah Carthen Watson was only days away from her wedding when she experienced chest pain. Her visit to the ER became a stark example of medical gaslighting, where health care professionals appeared to dismiss or overlook her concerns. Medical gaslighting not only erodes trust but also risks missing diagnoses and delaying treatment. Key Takeaways Lean on family and friends for advocacy support. Be specific about the diagnosis you're most concerned about. Ask: "Has every (reasonable) test been done to make sure I don't have ________?" If a healthcare professional refuses to do any tests, labs, or x-rays, demand that they document your request and their denial in the electronic health record.
