7. Endometriosis And Chronic Pain with Sarah Sharp
Manage episode 349080046 series 3264111
This week Dr Suba talks with Sarah Sharp. Sarah is a chronic illness blogger with a passion for honesty, education and inclusivity. She fights to make the menstrual health community a more open and inclusive place for everyone who needs it through her platform @endo_the_world.
She takes us through her journey with endo, from first realizing that something wasn’t right all the way up to her post-laparoscopy appointment, which was literally on the day we recorded. We learn about how to advocate for yourself, why education is everything and how important community is along the way.
In our short we trash the idea that period pain is something you just have to get on with and find out how women have led the charge with transforming access to information, built support networks and challenged HCPs to do better around chronic pelvic pain.
To be in so much pain that you can’t function is never normal.
