Hi,
I'm going to see my dr. soon.
I am going to try to be as objective
and truthful in my report, so as
to help him collaborate on my
health care. I would like to
start with the good things about
my treatment first, and the couple
of things that bother me.I know I can trust him to do the
right thing.On the internet, it's great to
exchange ideas, and swap symptoms
but you can't really know for sure.One thing that disturbs me is that
it is difficult to discern the
legitimate posts from the "prank"
ones. And a naive person, say
a teen or a person going through a very
rough time emotionally, may actually
be drawn into bad advice.I worry about that sometimes, because
I think that I myself, have fallen
for such misinformation - not here
though.Any ideas on how to avoid this non-quality
information? Have you had some bad
experiences and learned from them?
What do doctors think?Tx
