I went on a &#8220;damn data&#8221; collection mission by ordering data from all the places where my Crohn&#8217;s disease had caught up to me. I ordered medical records, medical bills, insurance information, and pharmacy data. It&#8217;s a collection worth about 13 years, 600 pages, and came from nearly 20 sources. Impressive, no? But it&#8217;s not having the data that&#8217;s important, it&#8217;s what you do with it that matters.<\/p>\n<p><!--more-->My ambition was to condense that epic volume into something useful. I love infographics. They&#8217;re quick and clear, they&#8217;re memorable and they tell a story. Another great attribute of having something visual is that you can see your data under a new light. It becomes a narrative you can step back from. Having a different perspective can lend itself to insights. The first infographic I created is called &#8220;My Life On Drugs.&#8221; Take a look: <a href=\"http:\/\/bit.ly\/szDvUs\" target=\"_blank\">http:\/\/bit.ly\/szDvUs<\/a>\u00a0<em>(and above)<\/em>. It&#8217;s a summary of all the drugs I had to take each year. I counted everything even if it was given to me once. It makes a story.<\/p>\n<p>There&#8217;s dramatically more information there than meets the eye. Patterns emerge. I&#8217;ll give a few examples.<\/p>\n<p>You can see I have a history of inflammatory diseases &#8212; first was eczema, then asthma, and now Crohn&#8217;s disease. When my asthma was developing my skin was clearing up and when my Crohn&#8217;s was developing my asthma was clearing up. You can clearly see this transition just by reading from left to right. Perhaps they&#8217;re related?<\/p>\n<p>There&#8217;s another useful discovery &#8212; it&#8217;s the inclusion of the Vitamin B-12 injections. As soon as B-12 was prescribed I no longer needed depression medication. I didn&#8217;t even have depression, I had a vitamin deficiency. How often does this mistake happen? It&#8217;s a horrid oversight and I&#8217;m sure I&#8217;m not the only victim.<\/p>\n<p>The last observation I&#8217;ll make is that the combination of Remicade and azathioprine lost its efficacy and it landed me in more trouble than just before I was diagnosed &#8212; which I assure you was an awful lot of trouble. And then there&#8217;s a big drop in the number of drugs I&#8217;ve had to take post surgery. In retrospect I&#8217;d have chosen to avoid the drugs and opt for surgery back in 2001. It&#8217;s not the conventional medical practice but it&#8217;s useful to see a case study where drugs are not an optimal solution.<\/p>\n<p>Along the way of creating this first infographic I&#8217;ve had to learn a lot about data requests, organization, and trying to make my health records digital. It&#8217;s been tedious, fun, and frustrating but I now have my own Electronic Health Record!<\/p>\n<p>In addition to the infographic I&#8217;ve also put together a how-to manual of what I&#8217;ve done so far. My quest isn&#8217;t complete but I feel like I&#8217;ve got enough to share.
