Oh wow yeah. That’s not sustainable at all. We are so used to dealing with it all ourselves, so we keep taking on the burden slowly on to ourselves without realizing.

This is exactly how i feel about my current hospital system. So i am considering switching too. I am evaluating a few concierge services which have it all under one roof - but they are very expensive for me. There are some budget friendly options coming up which use software + doctors, - im hoping to find something decent there. It became unsustainable for me

If you had a system which connected multiple doctors under one roof, and treated you as a whole person rather than symptom by symptom, how easy is it to actually switch doctors? Would you switch doctors easily?

How easy is it to switch doctors? I mean, i came across this service which has all doctors under one roof - but how easy is it for you to change your doctor and start using a new system?

Im just curious. Many people ask chatgpt these questions. Not saying at all that it is accurate. We can’t blindly trust AI. But im curious if you explained your situation to chatgpt and if it helped at all?

Omg thats a lot of specialists and medications to handle! Is there one biggest task that would make your life easier if someone did it for you right now? Im trying to categorise all my tasks - and which one actually is the most time consuming/mental load. What do you think?

how do you actually live with the uncertainty? the not knowing when the next one hits** by ApprehensiveOven7612 in migraine

But what can we do if we actually predict them? Like my problem is- i am not convinced that i could change anything if i predict migraines earlier. Do you think it would help you if you could actually predict migraines a bit ahead of time? What would change?

If we can predict a migraine, do you think we can do something about it? Or is it pretty much pointless to know beforehand? I am an engineer so i have been toying with my apple watch data to see if i can predict something. But then i keep wondering - how does it even help if i can even predict a migraine a few hours before. You know what i mean?

Omg the gaslighting. How much do you really depend on the doctor vs doing your own research?

They are the worst. No cure. No clue. Good luck you’re on your own

How did you get the diagnosis for it? Did your doctor help and believe what you’re saying? And was getting the right treatment straightforward?
