This 28-Year-Old Woman Is Going Viral For Creating A "Medical Binder" So Doctors Listen To Her
Briefly

Jessica shared that doctors' responses during her appointments have been positive overall. 'At my first appointment with the binder, the doctor noted, 'She is very well organized and has a binder documenting her medical history.' Previously, my records said things like, 'The patient was unclear and struggled to communicate.'"},{
She explained that her reports shifted from saying things like 'patient verbally reports receiving a diagnosis' to 'she has a diagnosis' based on the evidence in her binder. 'I'm taken seriously now, and doctors are aware that their report will go into my binder next, which results in fewer errors,' she said.
Several people shared that they already use medical binders, which have helped them secure proper care and avoid incorrect treatments. 'Mine saved me from getting an unnecessary pacemaker. The doctor read through everything and said, 'That would have been really bad,' and sent me home with a management plan for IST.'
