'You know what's best for your health. Don't let anyone else convince you otherwise.'

Months passed, and my cough got progressively worse. I saw one or two more doctors and was told that there was nothing wrong with me, given more allergy medication, and turned away. It got to a point where coughing became second nature to me. Several doctors had told me that I had nothing to worry about, so I learned to ignore my symptom and move on with my life.

and prescribed me with different medication for that. But no matter whose advice I'd listen to, my pain never stopped.When I Told My Doctor I Thought I Had Endometriosis, He Said, 'Stop Practicing Google Medicine' Eventually, my health started impacting my life as a whole. My friends thought I was either a hypochondriac or was desperate to marry a doctor since I was going in for check-ups pretty much on a weekly basis. Even I started to feel like I was crazy. When so many highly educated and certified people tell you there's nothing wrong with you, it's natural to start distrusting yourself.

When the ER doc on staff looked at my tests, he told me I wasn't going anywhere. I was immediately admitted and sent for testing. Through the X-rays, CAT scans, blood work, and ultrasounds, I kept going in and out. Then, in the middle of the night, I told my nurses that I couldn't breathe. Again, I was told that I was probably anxious and stressed because of everything going on, and my concerns were brushed off.Forty-five minutes later, I went into respiratory failure.
