okay so this is the template for evaluation we have the symptom up here which is the effect cause and valuation is basically connecting the symptom with the correct real cause to do that you have to evaluate which means to look closely at all the information this is data all the information that’s why you’re asking questions you’re tearing down your investigation so you have to really study the subject if you’re if you’re doing like for example if you’re uh let’s say the adrenals okay the adrenal body type you have to know about the adrenal to be able to evaluate because you you have to know about blood sugars to be able to evaluate you have to know about a engine before you can evaluate so this is an essential like thing you need to know first but there’s many many different causes of a symptom and you’re just going to narrow down by asking questions and see what aligns with a potential cause so like I said if you have fatigue um I mean that could and you start asking like this is the most important question time when did it start when did you first notice you got a fever when did you start noticing you started gaining weight when did you start noticing you had a sleeping problem or fatigue then it’s going to be after a big clue and then now that’s going to start to narrow down your um thought process so we can rule stuff out because uh let’s say they have pain in the right lower uh abdomen area and then when did it start uh 3 days ago and you thinking well it’s probably ovary and you’re talking on the phone but then you find out when you a ask a lot of questions about the data you find out this lady is 83 years old so what does that tell you it tells you that it’s not going to be the ovary so what happened when did it start happening and what happened just before what change occurred with diet stress what did you do she she says I stopped drinking the cranberry juice okay or or no I’m sorry she started drinking a cranberry juice when this pain started okay in the lower quadrant and you go oh okay well what could now you know that what cranberry affects the kidneys cranberry dissolves kidney stones so she probably dissolv the most obvious thing is she dissolved crud from your kidney and it went down the tube between your kidney and your bladder and cause that discomfort so that would be the most likely thing based on your knowing the information so you’re looking at the information you’re asking questions about it you’re seeing how things relate and you’re just you say like well I don’t understand that you keep asking questions until you get to the real cause okay that’s the Simplicity of valuation but um again we have to link cause and effect they’re two different things and when you get the right cause you get a lot of cooperation from the patient it makes sense to them they just intuitively they go yeah okay that makes sense um depression let’s take depression for example so one of the things that I want to add here is defining the problem okay what do you mean by depression tell me what it feels like oh it’s a heaviness it’s a fatigue heaviness like oh okay because what does depression feel like what does anxiety feel say anxiety I’d say what does it describe it to me oh it’s like a heaviness where in my chest ah ah or it’s a fat I’m depressed I fatigued in my eyes I’m like oh well I already know that tired eyes occur if you skip protein for breakfast that’s just a fact that I know and so the some of the questions I’m going to find out what do you eat for breakfast and they’re going to say I eat an English muffin boom now we we deal with now it’s a blood sugar thing you see how I evaluated that I’m I’m associating data with a root cause because I understand the subject quite well but if they say I have a heaviness on my head and and you don’t get anywhere you say well have you ever injured your head and they go yes I was in the hospital for two months with a head concussion I’m like oh my God boom that’s it right there so it’s an old injury I wonder your head and you thought you’re depressed or you might find they’re depressed is really it’s it’s really a tiredness in their whole body and then you find find out that they don’t sleep at all and then you find out why keep asking questions you can find the real cause but again that’s how you evaluate so you need to get good at evaluation
