Here is a story of a friend of mine who avoided making dreadful mistake when dealing with her doctor. I hope you can benefit from her experience if you’re ever in the same situation.
A friend of mine broke her leg last fall. It was a bad injury, the leg was totally snapped. Her doctor had to literally nail her together. He said she would be back walking within 2 months if she made sure not to put any pressure on the foot.
She took this as a true hero. Rolled around on a special tool she got. Not able to step on the foot at all.
She counted the days till she could walk again. She planned a big walk-again-party in November.
Then the day came her doctor had schedule to take the cast off. Bad news. The bone had not healed. He said she needed another month to get better. But he promised she would be walking before Christmas.
A month passed and still the bone was not healed. The doctor now said she needed another surgery since something had to be wrong.
My friend was shocked, she didn’t like the idea of another surgery but she is dedicated to listen to professionals, especially doctors, so she made an appointment.
At that point, I made a friendly suggestion that maybe she could seek second opinion. It wouldn’t hurt.
My friend did. She found a young doctor that practices natural medicines whenever possible avoids drugs and surgery.
He advised her to begin using the foot a little. First only for a few minutes a day and then increase it a little, day by day. My friend followed his advise and within 2 weeks she was walking normally again.
Yesterday I literally ran into her jogging. I’ve never seen happier jogger in my life.
So what can we learn from this story?
There is nothing wrong with seeking second opinion. Actually if you’re faced with serious diagnosis, which requires you to undertake surgery or be on medicines for the rest of your life, you should seek third fourth or fifth opinion. Then go with the opinion that feels the best to you.
I’ve had clients who tried my programs after their doctors swore there was no way that my approaches could help them. Their doctors often presented all kind of technical bs. to proof the uselessness of my programs. Most of these clients received total relief from their problems.
