What do you think about the use of medical jargon?

[raj_nandani_poet]

I felt it was okay to add it in the book because it somehow gave sense about the condition and jargon that we all are suddenly introduced to when we are diagnosed with some disease or ailment whether we want to or not.

In my opinion, I appreciate that the author has gone beyond the normalcy of simply including non-technical terms. I like learning new terms, and in this case medical terms.

[Ruth Naomi]

When you pick a medical-themed book, medical jargon is inevitable. However, it would go a long way if the author includes a glossary of contents.

[Joseph Dunn]

I thought the jargon was appropriate, and much of the language that she used has become common. Also, simplifying the nomenclature for specific concepts, treatments, and other related information may create even more confusion: it will be easier for readers to research terms if they have those specific terms.

It’s an important part of her story. If the medical information she shared helps someone, then it was definitely good that the author included it. It wasn’t a large part of the book so I don’t think it detracted from the information she was trying to get out to the public.

[JMeryem Fontes]

It's comprehensive that technical areas have their own language, but it distances the patients and the public in general from certain pieces of information and leaves the persons out of the right understanding of information.

[Lisa A Rayburn]

The only downside to using medical jargon in the book that I can see would be that many readers may have difficulty understanding it. However, it's informative and relatable for those in similar situations, which lands it on the positive side. Overall, the author does a good job of relating the information about healthcare's necessity. I don't think that the medical jargon interferes with her message, and that's what's important.

I think Medical terminology allows all medical professionals to understand each other and communicate effectively. When everyone understands what a condition, medicine, or procedure is, they are able to fulfill their roles accordingly, whether that is delivering medicine or billing for a medicine. The Author has done a great job with this.

[Jessi_reads]

The author described the medical terms quite well, and it was easily understood what she meant with her texts. I think she had a great way of expressing the importance and similarly kept the wording simple.

The inclusion of medical terminologies in the book is very much justified. It makes the book more authentic and relatable to others going through same phase. And not just this book but any other book which focuses on some or the other field has its own terminologies. It also makes it fun to read and makes us learn a thing or two about it.

[Sharill Rasowo]

I do not mind the author's inclusion of medical jargon in her book. This is because I think for her to fully explain what she went through, they had to be included. Her aim was to disseminate knowledge and that is what she did by including those terms.

[JB3]

I think that it is helpful as it helps to show just how complicated the medical world is. In addition it helps to teach you terms that you may not have otherwise know so that the next time you are confronted by them you understand what they are.

[Eutoc]

I don't mind it interesting, but it's a gain for both the author and some readers. The author uses this means to express her knowledge base from her exposure during care. Similar could be said about readers who area medically inclined. I usually put up a smirk when I notice the author knows his/her onions in a particular field.

[Menace Crypto]

I find the use of medical jargons helpful because it helps the reader to have a better understanding of the illness being talked about. At the same time, I think using too much will have an opposite effect as readers who are not well-informed in the health section tend to get confused.

[Kim Jek]

Since the book will be of much help to people in similar situations, I think it is appropriate to i include all the related medical terms as this will make the explanations clearer and more specific.
