A new episode of A Body Rebels: A Chronic Illness Podcast is now available.
In my one hundredth episode, I end up in the emergency room after seeing blood in my urine during Labor Day weekend. I walk through the way I handled the night, from researching possible causes to arriving with twenty years of medical history ready on my phone. Somewhere between the CT scan and my medication list, I recognize a familiar pattern. Chronic illness taught me to prepare, anticipate problems, and reduce uncertainty. Those habits serve me well in medicine. I’m starting to see what happens when I carry them everywhere else.
This podcast is narrated using an AI voice. The words, reflections, and lived experience are my own.
