Was it really better for medicine to blame me instead of treating me like the intelligent young woman I was and simply say "we don't know?"

@mollydotcom I can relate in a small way—I complained to docs for 35 years before my severe sleep apnea was diagnosed. My sympathies.

@dori That's less than small Dori. Not sleeping properly is a recipe for complete system collapse and death. Such lack of care :(

@mollydotcom Sleep apnea leads to two big causes of death: heart attacks and car crashes. Sound unrelated, but both due to lack of sleep.

@dori Brain function is auto-impaired by lack of sleep. Mood, immune system, metabolism take a hit, unchecked leading to major organ fail.
