Re: Listen to Your Medical Team

[Guest guest]

Yes, I guess I share my experiences because sometimes I feel alone in

having a certain reaction or intolerance for something that " everyone

else " does fine with. And it is interesting how vehemently some

medical professionals are one way or another, there are no clear cut

answers in medicine. YMMV, IMHO apply to all posts (at least mine

These are opinions, all in all...

Of course the fact that a good many of us are dealing with cognitive

issues makes us less likely to grab the correct words and phrases

when describing our experiences

Take care,

> It's important for all of us to remember that internet searching

brings up good information and education but we also need to remember

that our doctors are our professional advisors. We all need to

carefully weigh what we find on the internet and if we feel the need

to share it with our medical team because we feel it applies to us,

we should do so but keep in mind that many doctors resent patients

who supply internet information and many tell the patients to stop

reading from the internet. I guess what I'm trying to say is to

tread carefully and consider the experience of others but please keep

in mind that this is a support group and we do not recommend

following medical advice given here but instead recommend seeking

doctors who are qualified to treat your symptoms.
