<br>
Luna, like so many of us, has dealt with every variation of medical gaslighting. Doctors dismissing pain, questioning reality, and prescribing a whole lot of nothing—while ordering tests that don’t even make sense. If you’ve ever had a doctor make you question your own body, you are not alone.<br>
