Episode 44 – Sarah Vizer – Part 4 of 5 “Your Medical Maze”

Author • Executive Coach • Reluctant Medical Sleuth

Eight wrong turns, one gem GP – and a crash course in patient power. In Part 4 of Too Tired to Think, Sarah Vizer hands you her roadmap for surviving (and reshaping) the healthcare hunt.

What’s inside

• 🔍 Spot the gems – four questions that reveal a doctor’s real ME/CFS know-how
• 🚩 Red-flag rhetoric – “Just exercise more” and other lines that should send you packing
• 📑 Prep like a pro – symptom logs, research print-outs and a “backup brain” in the chair beside you
• 🔄 Your energy, your rules – why walking out is sometimes the most therapeutic act
• 🌱 Glimmers of hope – LDN, micro-clot research and the rise of multi-disciplinary clinics

“You’re the expert on your body. Fossick until you find the gems—ditch the rocks.” – Sarah Vizer

Why listen

• Turn exhausting appointments into efficient, spoon-saving missions.
• Learn to interview them—not the other way round.
• Feel less alone (and more strategic) next time a white coat gas-lights your symptoms.

🎧 Hit play and take back the driver’s seat on your care journey.
