This Thanksgiving, between the pumpkin pie and football games, take a moment to talk with your family about your health histories. Understanding your family’s medical history can be lifesaving. It helps us identify patterns, assess risk, and make proactive decisions—especially for conditions like heart disease, diabetes, cancer, and genetic disorders. Here are a few simple questions to guide the conversation: 👉 Has anyone been diagnosed with a chronic condition? 👉 Are there any hereditary diseases we should be aware of? 👉 What age were relatives diagnosed with major illnesses? These discussions don’t have to be heavy—they can be empowering. Knowing your family’s health story gives you the power to write a healthier future. For additional tips on how to manage these conversations, see our blog: https://www.eileenwestmd.com/blog/ask-the-expert-family-health-history-and-why-it-matters/ Wishing you and your loved ones a warm, safe, and informed Thanksgiving. 🧡 #eileenwestmd #happythanksgiving
