Discovering The Truth Throgh Tongue Pain – Margo’s Journey

  • Summary

  • Doctors questioning the need for cancer care follow up...tongue pain leading to a rare diagnosis...Margo Shoaf's medical journey has been a unique one.

    And if there's anything we've learned, it is that a complex medical journey is more likely to lead to medical gaslighting. When a patient's symptoms aren't "normal," and they don't "look sick," sometimes the medical community would rather just tell them to get more exercise or lose weight than dig deeper.

    Medical gaslighting, a phenomenon that occurs when healthcare professionals dismiss or invalidate a patient's symptoms or concerns, can have devastating consequences for individuals seeking medical help. In this episode, we delve into the story of Margo Shoaf, who experienced both a painful tongue and the detrimental effects of medical gaslighting.   Join us as we explore Margo's journey to find answers and shed light on the importance of validating patient experiences.
