#075 - Have you felt disregarded, railroaded, or even abandoned by the healthcare system?   This week I discuss ways you can get more out of your doctor's appointments and other interactions with the medical system with Susan Salenger, author of the newly released book Sidelined: How Women Manage & Mismanage Their Health.  We explore the six things that women instinctively do that make getting an accurate diagnosis more challenging, why getting second opinions is important, and how you can use your own research to more deeply understand your diagnosis.
