I was thinking the other day, a lot of people are most interested in other people with similar disease histories, and we also like to see someone's disease bio when trying to answer their questions. Most people who provide bio information provide information specific to their disease history (pathology, lab results, treatments/drugs used). Are most all of us forgetting to include data points that are potentially highly relevant about other aspects of our health which could have significant effect on various aspects of dealing with this disease (efficacy, side-effects, long-term outcomes?)
Other medical issues and drugs (high blood pressure, high cholesterol/statins, diabetes, anxiety, etc)
BMI (Body Mass Index)
Average amount and type of exercise
Diet (degree of plants/fruits vs processed/fast food, lean vs fatty meat, alcohol and type, refined carbs/sugars)
Could some of these things be underestimated on how big difference they might make on treatment outcomes? I know there have been studies but just like non-pharmaceutical products, the investment in quality studies is relatively very small.
