Thanks for the video! I'm actually the "Judy" you refer to, so it's great to hear commentary on PHRs. Indu asked a question about sharing information. As an e-patient, I believe that patients are very motivated to find others who are "going through what they are." PHR information is among the best I've found to do this. E-Patients are looking for common meds, similar disease trajectories, common protocols (including under-reported side effects), etc. Thank you for continuing to raise the issue: "is anyone asking the patient what he/she wants? Is anyone listening to what patients are saying?"
