When Something Feels Off: Trusting Your Instincts in Medical Care
Sometimes, even a routine medical procedure can leave you with a quiet sense of unease—
an instinct that something just isn’t right.
It’s not always easy to explain, but when it involves someone you love, that feeling deserves attention.
A few weeks ago, my girlfriend underwent leg surgery. Everything seemed straightforward at first—clear diagnosis, reassuring explanations, and a routine plan.

The hospital suddenly moved her surgery date up twice, citing “a special situation” with room availability.
Each last-minute change felt disorganized and unsettling, raising questions about what was really going on behind the scenes.

When unexpected changes occur in medical care, it’s okay to trust your instincts.
