I have been a patient of UNM Hospital, and their various clinics since 2019, when my medical care coordinator with BCBS/NM began transferring my services over. From the beginning, there were red flags, but I wasn't in a place that I could necessarily do a lot about it. Again I had a medical care coordinator who kinda' was doing their job, and was working on getting my services "under one roof" so that I had a chance at a diagnosis...
I was dealing with a list of symptoms, sudden onset of vision change, Chorioretinitis, uveitis, a personality change, treatment resistant depression, rapid onset of systemic pain, severe joint pain, sudden fatigue and weakness - when I was an elite athlete 12 years ago - continuing decline in my lung health unrelated to my being a former smoker, systemic muscle spasms, granulomas in my lungs and liver (although they didn't find those liver granulomas until 2024, and still won't acknowledge them,) spikes in bilirubin, night sweats, insomnia, random fevers, cold intolerance, nodules in my lungs (again, they never followed up on either the granulomas or nodules.)
I came to UNM with a few issues. Seeking a solution/cause instead of an excuse and drugs. I didn't get the handful of drugs because I charted the drugs they give people (benzos, opioids, and similar) as allergies. They stopped giving me excuses when I questioned and challenged them with current research. They also didn't give me a solution. I've now got pulmonary fibrosis and bronchiectasis. Pulmonary didn't want to chart the PF, and has still refused to chart the bronchiectasis. As far as what caused it all... well I now know, but that doesn't change the fact that I'm now dying, when I could have been treated for years before it progressed to this point. A read of my chart, one single medical professional taking the time to actually read my chart, symptoms, review blood work (contemporary and historic,) and cross with my images would have said: this is such a textbook case is sarcoidosis that we can actually validate the textbook with it. But, no one actually cared to do their job that much.
The pictures: UNM was breached, multiple times. They haven't publicly owned multiple breaches, and failed to report them under HIPAA's breach reporting. I am/was a cybersecurity engineer. In order to access their network, you need a few things: access to the IP address schemes, the MAC address associated with an IP address, and access to a computer to pull either login token or login keys from. That can be done in under 1 minute with a rubber ducky. I was left alone with the terminal pictured for over 1/2 an hour. And I was carrying a laptop.
Going to UNM is like getting a consult by Dr Josef Mengele, a second opinion from RFK Jr., and then treated by Dr Kevorkian... the difference is UNM kills you more cruelty, with less medical knowledge, and much more slowly, than the 3 mentioned. read more
