You've been there. You leave a clinic appointment feeling like you missed something important. Maybe you forgot to ask a key question, or you couldn't quite explain your symptoms clearly. The person helping you seemed rushed, and you felt like you were just another number on a busy schedule. This feeling of being unheard or unprepared can be frustrating. But it doesn't have to be this way. You can take control of your health story. One of the most powerful tools you have is your own story, presented clearly and concisely. This chapter will show you how to create a one page health summary.
