LOA Today - Your Daily Dose Of Happy

Why You Must Take Charge of Your Own Medical Care


Listen Later

During their thought-provoking discussion, life coach Joel Elston and host Walt Thiessen debated who truly holds responsibility for our healthcare - doctors or ourselves? Through personal anecdotes of dismissive doctors and misdiagnoses, they highlighted the failings of a "one-size-fits-all" medical system.

Walt recounted his own experience of sky-high blood pressure being brushed off until he took control, researching and adjusting his diet to discover the real cause. Joel agreed the system lacks individualization, prioritizing averages over understanding unique histories and needs. Both expressed a need for doctors to show more curiosity about patients' situations instead of easy answers.

Their stories illuminated the importance of self-advocacy. As Joel advised, finding doctors open to your views and being your own "case manager" is key. But ultimately, Walt proposed, only we can be responsible for properly managing our care instead of full reliance on doctors or a shared model.

Through education on our bodies and not fearing to challenge assumptions, we can work collaboratively as informed partners. But your health is too crucial to leave entirely to chance or the constraints of a broken system. You must take charge, understand your needs, and ask questions to receive the best possible care. Don't leave the most important job - caring for yourself - entirely in someone else's hands. Your health is in your control.
