My Fellow Pushy Patient

No, I didn't get sucked into a vortex of imbalanced hormones; I've just been traveling a lot aimlessly for work. Thanks for your nice messages!

Anyway, I really wanted all three of you to check out this great article about a teenager who had to diagnose herself because doctors couldn't.
Here is the link.

Let it be a lesson to us all - our doctors do not always have ALL the answers. Or even half of them. You must be your own advocate, and a pushy one at that.

Breast Cancer awareness month is a great time to remember this...we are our own advocates. Never ever ever trust a doctor. White coats and stethoscopes do not a great doctor make.
thanks for being a health warrior/goddess
