I've been seeing specialist after specialist for over a year now... Last summer I was diagnosed with a hindbrain malformation. Every single doctor I've seen has tried to pin my symptoms (symptoms from the physical size and position of my skull relative to my brain) on my weight. My double vision? Weight. Severe headaches, especially after coughing/laughing/straining? Weight. The fact that I don't have diabetes, heart disease, high cholesterol, or any other "fat" disease is irrelevant. A dozen "professionals" have told me surgery is risky because of my weight, but then encourage me to look into gastric bypass.

THANK YOU for this neat trick. I have to now travel out of state (because no doctors in my state want a fat fat fattie mcfatterson as a patient) and I will keep this trick firmly in mind.
