Another diagnosis after years of pain, this time a name. Giorgia Soleri and the long outburst on Instagram: “This time it’s different”
Yet another diagnosis, fear and anger. Giorgia Soleri posted a recent post on her Instagram account. The famous influencer has publicly announced that she has fibromyalgia.
I would be hypocritical if I denied the mixture of terror and anger that pervaded my body after yet another diagnosis.
This is how Giorgia Soleri tells ofyet another diagnosis. The first called it a liberation and at the same time a punch in the stomach.
His pain had finally a name. A name that must have been rare, however, as she herself defined it, given that the doctors took years to pronounce it.
The truth is that we were millions of people, silenced by a medical-health staff who for years had treated us like imaginary sick people, burned by the invalidation that our pain had received from loved ones and relatives, crushed by the weight of a disease that in its name bore the inconvenient sound of a genital organ.
Three different diagnoses: europathy of the pudendal, endometriosis and adenomyosis.
And every time one came, Giorgia Soleri felt more protected and less alone, because they began to understand it and ad help her. A few days ago, another one arrived: fibromyalgia.
The same dynamic as all the others: doubts, incorrect diagnosis, disillusionment, resignation. Then, a name: fibromyalgia. In the large umbrella term of Central Sensitivity Syndrome or also central sensitization. I would be hypocritical if I denied the mixture of terror and anger that pervaded my body after yet another diagnosis. But this time it was different.
This time it was different, empathy, love, support, closeness and silent hugs are back. A few hours earlier, the influencer had got a tattoo TOGHETER WE ARE STRONGER (TOGETHER WE ARE STRONGER). And now thinking of that coincidence, Giorgia Soleri smiles.
Today I feel it more than ever. Thank you.
A long post that soon spread on the web, flooded with reactions, over 28 thousand and messages from supportfrom understanding of other women suffering from fibromyalgia, which is actually not yet recognized as a real disease.
