She was 48, a schoolteacher from Salkia. Mother of two boys. When she visited my OPD, she looked tired like she hadn’t slept for a few nights. She informed me that she has been pulling herself for the last two weeks. She feels tiredness, which is kind of weird, a burning feeling between her shoulders that comes and goes, and nausea during climbing stairs. Three doctors before me had told her it was acidity, or maybe perimenopause, or stress. “Probably nothing, doctor,” she said, half smiling. “Everyone thinks I’m just overworked.”
