USA Today says it's important to participate in your own care, but notes that there are doctors who will resent that. At this point in my life -- after almost dying because I was being deferential to my doctors, who did not like to hear what I had to say -- I don't keep my mouth shut. However, I'm respectful of their time and expertise, and I don't bug them about little things. Having a team of doctors who appreciate my input makes all the difference. That's hard to find, but it can be done. Jennifer
