Right? And even that... i asked because, when i broke my foot, they labeled it as ruptured tendons. They told me i was just very « pain sensitive ». After walking on a broken foot for 4 months and finally getting the courage to go check it out again because it was still hurting it turns out it was broken. The hole time i felt like i was being melodramatic...
