write it down

by walkerd - 2009-01-29 07:01:35

Like ive been told on here write all things that have happened leave no little detail out, if you dont write it down you will forget to ask, being in a doctors office is stressful enough for anyone. Tell them everything that has happened, as no detail is insuignifcant when it comes to your health. I know I put things off as something else and come to find out later I had had heart attacks and when i did find out it was to late, had done heart damage that couldnt be repaired. So u see no detail is to small to bring up, they are the docs not us so tell them everything.
