I think it should be both, really, but wholeheartedly agree with the sentiment. Patients should have more control over knowledge about their bodies, even if that means being aware of a disease they do not yet know how to manage. Knowledge is power.</p>http://asifyourlifedependsonit.tumblr.com/post/28982930032http://asifyourlifedependsonit.tumblr.com/post/28982930032Wed, 08 Aug 2012 11:08:30 -0400self-carediagnosticsmhealth<iframe src="http://player.vimeo.com/video/12887367" width="400" height="224" frameborder="0"></iframe><br/><br/><p>Jay Parkinson’s CM talk on design in healthcare.
