As a hacker and someone that has a few things that I take medicine for I ask a lot of questions, and do a lot of research. My doctors always find it interesting when I can pull up full charts and graphs of data that they simply have written down, mine will generally be more accurate and has contained data points that they didn't have due to being measurements I took at certain times of day (blood pressure), and it has helped them give me the medicine I require. Not all patients are dumb, and while it has taken me a while to get my doctor to realise this, she has started realising that maybe there is something more to it and that it will be beneficial to both of us. I understand the CYA policy, and I understand that for most patients that is the best way to go about it, but for those of us who are outliers I think it may be beneficial because we may have more time to look at the data and find significant data (and then get them verified by a doctor) than some other people. It is in my own personal best interest to be as healthy as possible and if I can do that by knowing more about what is going on with my body, then all the better!
