19. Over the last few weeks I've been going through DVT

As someone who has been very healthy for a lifetime the dozens of appointments have been overwhelming.

After every single visit I find myself with yet another question I wish I had asked. I've taken to writing questions down so I'm better prepared for my visits, however I think a group visit might have been far more productive and helped me far more than the one on one visits I've had.

With the limited crash course I've been subjected to in our healthcare system I can say we it's not improvement we need, but a total reformation. I think group visits might be something we really should consider expanding.
