In this week’s episode of Form, Function, and Flow Lab, I talked about medicine being gray and not black and white. I wanted to discuss what kinds of questions you need to be asking when you go to your doctor for an evaluation and when should you get a second opinion. I decided to do this because I recently went to a PCP appointment, which I haven’t gone to in a long time.
When I got my results back, they were all normal, but I think it wasn’t a comprehensive process to take a look at a broader scope as to what has been causing my fatigue. Days after, I had my Gynecology yearly visit and my gynecologist found something that the PCP practitioner didn’t catch. Doctors are humans and they can miss things just as I missed some in my practice. I wanted to talk about this so that people will realize that medicine is grayer than we would like to believe.
In this episode we discuss:
- [00:36] Introduction to the topic
- [7:30] Being persistent, asking for second opinion, and further testing when it comes to your health
- [13:31] Conclusion
If you have any questions, you can drop it in the comment section or you can send me a message through Facebook or Instagram. I’d be happy to do another podcast about your questions. Also, if you want me to talk about something specific, let me know!
You can also check my TikTok account as I use the platform to educate viewers about movement, chiropractic education, yoga, pregnancy, and more!
Thank you for listening and see you next week!
