(Note: I made a technical error in this episode - I mentioned that my cardiologist found a problem with my heart while I underwent an EGD. This test was actually a TEE. Though they both involve an esophogeal scope, though they are done for completely different reasons.)

Self-advocacy is tricky. There's a fine line between looking out for your interests and being the know-it-all patient. In the transplant world, the ideal balance is a patient/doctor team that shares information and works together to get to the finish line. In this episode, I share some personal experiences to illustrate degrees and the necessity for self-advocacy.
