I don't have anything requiring regular medical treatment, but my medical records identify me as someone who has suffered mental health problems, who regularly drinks to excess, who habitually uses cocaine, and who caught an STD in a nazi-themed prostitution orgy while I was a sex tourist in a deprived country.

I'd prefer to retain my privacy and take my chances on the medical miscommunication front, thanks.

I can't help but think that the nazi-themed prostitution orgy part doesn't need to be in the medical records. You should probably talk to your practitioner about logging discretion. ;)
