Hi I have read my medical records and I would always tell someone to check through theirs. I found many errors in mine. Some typos but some real errors that could have affected me at some other time. It was kinda scary. Personal opinions of the doctors were by far just interesting except for one who actually called me a B...H could not believe that. Last records I received copies of said I was in for back pain, EVERY appt. I have MS and yes I have pain but NO back pain, then there were issues of what I had said to doctor compared to what he wrote, this could have hurt me in the future with new doctors. I was lucky that switching states I went to doctor I had originally so those records really meant nothing. Even this doc could not understand why the lies were there. Sorry for rambling as you can see I feel pretty strongly about this issue.
Kind of like checking your credit report, if mistakes can be made there why not your medical records, espeically if it can be detrimental to future health problems. Thanks for listening and good luck Linda
