What three stories should I tell?
I need to tell three stories about getting a medical diagnosis and overcoming or dealing with it. Either about me or someone I know (with their permission). Many of you have heard me tell these stories before.
Here are the choices:
Getting diagnosed as a teenager with high cholesterol and learning I can drop my cholesterol 50 points in a few weeks by changing what I eat.
Getting diagnosed with liver damage and changing to healthier food choices and it cures the person’s high blood pressure. Plus, the person diagnosed reads up and realized the tech might have done the liver scan wrong and pushes for another scan and it turns out his liver is great.
Having a wound that won’t heal on your foot, your doctor eventually refers you to a wound clinic, many months pass, it’s not healing. A friend recommends seeing his podiatrist and the podiatrist in 30 seconds recognizes it’s cancer.
Spending years with muscle cramping and being so shaky sometimes you can’t hold a glass or drive a clutch car at times. After many doctors and being told your just aging at age 42, finally one doctor says she sees it all of the time, tests your vitamin D, it’s extremely low, and after getting the number up into normal most symptoms resolve or get significantly better.
Having trouble stabilizing my thyroid and how I finally did it by testing when I felt good even if it was not yet 6 weeks after starting a new dose.
