Mrs NOP Being involved in Medicine the more you know the better you are off. Doctors only have a short time to evaluate your condition and really got to be good listeners.
I had the luxury of knowing my 40+ patients really well cause I lived with them over a period of time. I had a history with most relevant records.
When my STBX got sick I dove into the problem and got the source of the problem which was confirmed by a neurologist, GP, and a Pulumary Specialist. Was not easy but it took work by both of us. Many arguments with the medical community. Bulldog work.
Sometimes finding out what NOT is the problem is as good as what is since you eliminated an area not to search. Just keep the NOT in your back pocket. My STBXs problem was my first gut feeling but the medical establishment poo pooed it until the evidence was overly clear.
Sounds like you got the info already. Document symptoms with dates and events. It really helps the health care provider. Validate anything with second source of info.
Best Wishes
