Imagine suffering for 25 years, being bounced between specialists, misdiagnosed, and dismissed, only to finally receive a diagnosis that explains decades of pain, fatigue, and frustration. That’s the story of Emma Jack, a sport and orthopedic physiotherapist from London, Ontario, who opens up about her journey with endometriosis in this powerful episode.
Emma shares the raw reality of living with undiagnosed endometriosis—from her early symptoms at age 12, the countless medical appointments, and ineffective treatments, to the deep emotional toll of feeling unheard.
