Omg Ally, I’m so sorry you’re dealing with dismissive doctors, I totally know how you feel (unfortunately) and boooy can I relate to those sobs (sending so much love), so while it’s super hearbreaking, thank you for leaving that stuff in. Your vlogs are such pure comfort and I’m so happy I found your channel last year. Thanks for filming your beautiful life, the good and the bad. I’m hoping there’ll be so much more good to come.

Every time you share your struggles I feel it so deeply. I am a New Yorker who has lived in Berlin for 18 years now. I left NYC because I was so sick and every doctor dismissed me and told me I needed to see a psychiatrist instead. I suffered (and still do) from chronic fatigue (back then doctors would laugh at me when I mentioned this), excruciating migraines called Hemiplegic that mimic stroke symptoms, and body pain that makes it very difficult to get out of bed. About 9 years ago things got better when I went vegan but I'm still a far cry from feeling well. Also like you, I am autistic. Diagnosed last year at the age of 45. My relationship to seeing doctors is an effing nightmare. Anywayyyyyy, all that to say, I SEE YOU and your struggles. And i thank you immensely for being you and being here in your little corner of the internet. My daughter, who is 13, loves watching your videos with me. She is currently drawing me a snail for my next tattoo thanks to your beautiful little guys. 🐌🐌🤍💙

This is going to sound silly BUT whenever I think of being a woman with medical struggles and dismissive doctors I think of an episode of Golden Girls. Dorothy experiences fatigue and just cannot get energy any time of day and a doctor basically tells her “you’re old lady what do you expect”. But she keeps trying. She advocates for herself and keeps going and finds a doctor that will listen and help her and BELIEVE HER. Hopefully you’ll find your doctor that believes you and helps you and respects you. You will be on my heart ❤

as someone who has struggled for many years to get the medical help that i needed because i "didn't look sick" i am giving you tHE BIGGEST HUG! the process of finding the right medical help when you are suffering from something that is not well known among doctors or that isn't easily visible on the outside or a simple scan is genuinely horrible and honestly sickening in and of itself. i fully understand the struggle. know that you're not alone in this (which can be both a comfort but also a huge source of frustration in this case..) always know that no matter what these doctors tell you, YOU are not in the wrong. you are the one who knows your body best, so stay stubborn and keep demanding answers/help. i hope you'll manage to find medical professionals who will be able to help you! i hope that you get to experience the relief of finally being heard and getting some actionable answers/advice. and before you get there, keep listening to your own body with at much kindness and patience that you can muster (& keep breathing well. like that may seem like very weird and stupid advice, but when your in a position where u feel so powerless over what's going on with your own body, taking good control over your breath can actually bring some relief, considering that it's a part of your bodily functioning that u have control over and it effects literally all systems within your body. again, maybe it's weird advice, but there's a lot of power in how u breathe and it's good not to forget that when you are made to feel so powerless otherwise).

Ally, I saw pretty much everyone in the comments validating you in your sickness in pain, so I decided to join and say, that I feel you. I've been struggling with health issues (while of course not looking sick) for 10 years now and only last year in November I finally found a new general physician who took me seriously. My old one didn't do anything even when I proposed possible diagnosis to her and specifically asked her for certain test I would like to run and if I could get a recommendation for a psychiatrist, because I knew that although my issues were of physical nature, my mental state and anxiety was firing my symptoms big time. She looked me dead in the eye and said: "Ohh, Miss Fabia, do you even know how hard is it to find a good therapist? Do you really want to go through that trouble?" (I live in Germany btw, to pretty privileged in terms of healthcare over here) I was shocked. Another 5 years past and I finally had the courage to go to another general physician in my area who had just opened up his office. I was sitting in front of this young man (he's only 5 years older than me) and was crying my eyes out, telling him what had been going on over the past years and that I'm so tired of all of it. He considered me, proposed some test, to check my physical state and then asked me if I was interested in therapy. Yes, YES, YEEEEEES. He also gave me several contacts for therapists in my city and encouraged me to reach out, if I needed any other help to get what I need. This week, I went to my first therapy session with a lovely doctor who is specialized in psycho-somatic illnesses and I am so glad that I finally don't have to explain my issues to a wall anymore. I hope my little story gives you strength and hope. Oh, and "The God of Small Things" sounded awfully familiar. Upon looking it up, I noticed that I had to read it for my literature class I took when I was studying abroad, but only skimmed through it. Back than I wasn't a big reader (ironic right, studying literature and all, but well, University kinda killed the fun) and having only two weeks to finish a book was horror. That's why I don't remember much other than I found it kind of disturbing at times.

Hopefully this puts your mind a little at ease about your cats and the sachets. also protip they are great for keeping in places where humidity build up is best avoided.

I had a doctor tell me I was "just constipated" when I went to get a concerning and painful abdominal bulge checked out and she made me feel like an idiot. Two years later I had to have a hysterectomy bc guess what! It was ginormous fibroids! Thankfully I tried again and found a doctor who listened. To anyone who's struggling with being believed about your pain, keep trying, keep telling your story, and keep advocating for yourself! ❤

Im a researcher at a prominent headache center in the States and meet so many patients with debilitating yet "invisible"chronic pain conditions, migraines, other headache disorders. The narrow understanding and stigma even professionals have maintain this huge barrier thats sad and irritating to see. Even as a future anesthesiologist in medical training I initially struggled to recognize my migraine symptoms. my gp wrote off a lot of my nonspecific symptoms as "just part of life as a medical student". thankfully the neurologist i ended up seeing made me feel seen and heard even though to others i present as high functioning and healthy. i hope you similarly find doctors and people in your life who can provide clinical guidance and affirm your experience

Thanks for the update Ally. I really enjoyed learning about your vision board, I hope it all comes to fruition for you. Also, I'm sorry the Doctors are continuing to be dismissive of your experience. That is so frustrating and unacceptable behavior by the Docs.. I wish you courage and strength to continue on your quest for answers. (Actually, I wish you would find a doc that believes you and takes your concerns seriously!) I noticed you had a playlist for reading, would you be willing to link it/share it? I'm always looking for new music, especially for reading. You can be proud of yourself for the work you do, all the effort your putting in to take care of yourself, and for acknowledging that it's okay to not feel okay sometimes. 🐌🍄🌱

The invalidating feeling of a doctor telling you your pain is not "real" is so terrible, I'm so sorry for you. I really hope you will find a good doctor who can listen to your needs! Is there a way to find a community of fellow migraine sufferers in Belgium on social media maybe? They could help you find a good doctor. I know that there's similar communities for endometriosis sufferers sometimes (insta pages, FB groups etc to exchange advice and opinions on doctors) so it may be worth a try. Best of luck!!

Hi Ally, I just heard about this book and thought of you: all in your head by marcus sedgwick, it’s about having a chronic illness and the doctors not believing you and what you are experiencing. I’m sorry about your doctor’s appointment, maybe this book will help 😘
