After Years Of Doctors Dismissing This Woman's Pain As "Bad Periods," She Finally Got A Diagnosis And Her Reaction Is Tearfully Validating
In the viral TikTok — which has over 21 million views — a healthcare worker can be heard saying, "They found the reason for your pain that will be able to be treated." Crying, Mercer responds by saying, "They did? They really did? You're not lying to me? They found it? ... Finally — can I give her a hug?"
Mercer said she had been going to doctor appointments every other week for a year before this doctor was finally able to diagnose her with pelvic congestion syndrome (PCS), a condition that causes chronic pelvic pain during menstrual cycles.
