Translating Medical notes to Spanish - recommendations?

Hi friends, hope everyone is keeping well!

I’m travelling to Spain this month and was thinking of having my medical notes translated to Spanish to bring with me. Can anyone recommend a good medical translator or translation company?

Google search throws up lots of options, but I’m thinking a bad job being done may be more harmful or helpful on the off chance I might need them.

Thanks 💚

I’m 17 weeks pregnant now Brona so I’ve added a host of complications and medications 😅 All relatively healthy and well so far but it’s been hard enough explaining the situation to doctors at home, can’t imagine attempting it with a language barrier!

Hi Sarah, Fantasic!! What amazing news. Congratulations I am so pleased for you. I also understand how ur med history has become a bit more complex. Glad to hear all is going well. I was diagnosed with ET after having my daughter but am sure I had it while pregnant for sure. B :) X

Apparently that’s how lots of women end up discovering they have an MPN! I feel lucky to have known in advance, I’m definitely being well looked after as a result, it’s a full time job 😅
