Fighting to Be Heard: Becca’s Journey with Crohn’s, Medical Gaslighting, and Self-Advocacy


Listen Later

Becca was diagnosed with Crohn’s disease at just 17. What followed was a decade of misdiagnoses, debilitating pain, medical gaslighting, and repeated hospitalizations — all while trying to hold onto her identity, her relationships, and her will to keep fighting. In this episode, Becca opens up about the trauma of living with an invisible illness, what it’s like to be dismissed by doctors, and how she finally got the surgery that changed everything.


She also shares the ongoing battle she's now facing with undiagnosed period pain and PCOS — shedding light on how women's health continues to be minimized and ignored. This is a story about pain, persistence, and finally being heard.
