Pointing out your *demonstrated lack of knowledge* is neither attacking your presumed knowledge, nor is it attacking you as a person. I am sorry that you can't tell the difference, that must make life very unpleasant for you.

LOL. Good thing your wife isn't ab OB/GYN then. I do actually know how dangerous an exploratory lap is, and the answer is "not very, barring a bleeding disorder or reaction to anaesthesia."

LOL. So, you think I should watch a show I don't enjoy because you don't like "PC"? Not watching a TV show is "running down the street with fingers in my ears"? You're a really special kind of idiot.

LOL. You already called it "easy to diagnose" in another comment. You can't even keep your own BS straight, can you?

Pointing out that your knowledge is limited and you aren't (refuse to be) aware of that isn't an ad hominem attack, because it is based on evidence. LOL. You don't even know what ad hominem means!

"It's diagnosed quite easily." Yet you've been insisting over and over that endo is difficult to diagnoses.

"I'm not acting like an expert— I'm arguing based on the knowledge I have and providing evidence, however anecdotal."

Just to clear something up: "chronic fatigue" is the experience if being fatigued. It is diagnosed when you report that you are fatigued.

No, she wants you to shut the fuck up because you keep saying things that are not actually true. Over and over.

You keep pasting this here like it means something. Endo is only mistaken for these things when doctors don't do their job and evaluate for endo surgically.

That isn't what "diagnosis of exclusion" means. In your case, they checked for a lot of other things before they checked for endo (with the surgery.) The surgery found the endo. A diagnosis of exclusion would be if they tested for everything else, and then said "Well, we can't find anything else wrong, so it's

Reactive hypoglycemia isn't remotely related to the physical sensations that occur when one is hungry. Reactive hypoglycemia happens AFTER you eat, not before, which is why it is called "reactive." Furthermore, it is diagnosed with a glucose tolerance test, so if a GTT finds nothing wrong, you don't have reactive

Endometriosis is not remotely difficult to diagnose. It is diagnosed when a doctor finds endometrial tissue outside of the uterus.

I stopped watching his show several years ago, when I just couldn't take the rising tide of jokes about gay people. I started wondering if he had some major insecurities about his sexuality, or if he was just a homophobe.

Proper medical care isn't, imo, "special treatment." They should indeed get medical care, and I also agree that nonviolent offenders don't necessarily need to be detained.

Rich women already pay for the use of poor women's bodies. They have maids.

Surrogacy is legal/illegal depending on the state. And yes, it is legal to pay people for the use of their body, otherwise we wouldn't have fashion models.

I had honestly never even heard of her before people started connecting them romantically.

Not just Tonto, but his many racist comments connected to Tonto and his supposed Native ancestry that he isn't even sure about.
