And when we finally do drag ourselves in for a clinic visit, we find that even good doctors forget that most of us don't understand medical jargon, nor do they realize we are on a time-sensitive special-ops mission: get in, get what you need, and get out! \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Learning about your health doesn't have to read like a colonoscopy (informative, yes, but difficult to sit through without sedation).
