is there really such as thing as an average patient?

[Guest guest]

Dear Sunny,

 

Two important points come from both of our experiences: one: there is no such

thing as an " average " person. Nor should exceptions to " normal ranges " be

considered as pathological. When it comes to birthing, as long as there is no

fetal distress, and the mother is comfortable and healthy, instead of

intervening and turning the most wonderful, natural process into a medical

procedure, why not let the baby come out when it's ready, while at the same time

supporting both mom and baby? The same thing goes for medical tests. I think

that it is incredibly important for us to be able to read and understand lab

results, while not relying on the lab telling us that the patient's readings are

within normal ranges, if our observation and understanding leads us to believe

that this patient's range is different than others.
