I had swollen lymph glands. My white blood count was low. I took it to my gynecologist, and she said, 'There's no way. Finally, I went to get tested and she was shocked. We have got to educate gynecologists, because they are the key to reaching women.
Gynecologists are the only place that many women get any health information.
They have to learn to ask, and listen to the answers. Early in my infection they decided to do a bone marrow biopsy, and the doctor who did it was very insensitive. They didn't give me a gown. When I came back for the results, they had lost them. After all that.
