Misdiagnosis

Or no diagnosis at all.

I wonder how many are being misdiagnosed.....Or diagnosed late.


here's a fact. There was a time when you visited the doctor, got a prescription for your drugs, and went on your merry way.

You never questioned the doctor, what he said was golden.


Nowadays times have changed. As you wait in the ER, the doctor's office; as you listen to the diagnosis in the clinic, you can simultaneously google your ailment to learn more.

YOu can even get the opinions of communities online with similar condition to figure out what you're up against.

With all of this information patients are starting to do less 'nod and go' and more research on their own. We don't take what one doctor says at face value, we want to double and triple check, we do the due diligence. It is our health after all.

Now, let's not go overboard and be the patient nobody wnats, but there's nothing wrong with actively seeking second opinions and arming yourself with a pile of questions. It is healthcare aftera ll, not pill popping.....
