Part memoir, part medical history, but all about how doctors do & don‘t listen to women and take their pain seriously...often leading to no diagnosis or mis-diagnosis. Such a frustrating book to read, both for her story & how it intersects with anyone with an illness that resists easy classification & trying to navigate a medical system set up for quick fast exams and faster treatments, but have lost the time to actually study a patient‘s issue.

This will make you mad and sad. If you‘re a woman living with chronic pain, none of it will be a surprise. The medical establishment is and always has been anti-woman. OTOH, Dusenberry quotes most of my fav authors on the topic. Worth the time.

Def read in print—audiobook narrator is awful.
