Comment on Why is society so hard to work within whether online or physically in person
Azzu@lemm.ee 2 days agoAs for your idea, it does definitely make sense. The question I would personally pose would be more like, how does it help you? What do you actually want from the doctor? Do you want their understanding or do you want medical help in some way? What’s your goal there?
Theoretically, if you want, you can just look for studies or other information on your particular situation. But usually, a doctor will be much better at this, because they have contextual knowledge or other kind of advantages that will help them find the correct studies more quickly, or interpret them more accurately. The hard part is getting them to do it. I had success with this by pointing out inconsistencies in the symptoms, by asking for explanations, by asking them where they got their information from.

I guess the most important thing I want from a doctor. Is to listen to me. Even if they doubt it. I would like help understanding what may all happen. Maybe help finding out where to get scans to help science. Like I don’t know whether only the upper and middle portions of my ribs are fused or fully. Beyond that like today. I went today to see about hydration and they pushed me quickly out of the door. Though I drank 33 fl ounces of pedialtye in 2-3 days and each day 4-5 water bottles and still wasn’t hydrated enough to feel comfortable.
