I have a lot of serious long term health issues and quickly found out you have to be the champion for your own health and research everything. But that doesn't mean just asking for the latest drug in the market. Its about asking the right questions. Unless you have a common well understood health issues, you will quickly reach a roadblock.

I agree that it's important to be informed, especially if you have a health problem that is remotely non-obvious.

Pharma TV and billboard ads are the last place I'd seek such information though.
