Not only that, but the prescription also depends on the kind of doctor we see. - An optometrist is more likely to suggest an eye test in response to a headache. A general doctor might give us flu tablets. A neurologist might look for brain tumors. - These differing responses shift the burden to us as the problem staters. - When stating a problem, we should be as unbiased as possible. We can do that by: - identifying __all__ symptoms - expressing facts, not opinions - getting a second (and third, and fourth) opinion - [[Cognitive Biases]]
