Avril Lavigne was on the cover of People Magazine and the headline \"avril-lavigne-net-worth\"<\/a>read \u201cAvril Lavigne\u2019s Secret Health Crisis\u201d and underneath the striking words \u201cI thought I was dying\u201d. The pop punk princess\u00a0went into depth in this past week\u2019s People, speaking about her diagnoses of Lyme\u00a0Disease<\/a> and its debilitating effects. \u00a0The disease, if you don\u2019t know, is a bacterial infection caused by a tick\u2019s bite, that if undetected can cause long term damage. The symptoms come in a wide range and often\u00a0cause\u00a0radically different effects from person to person. Some of these symptoms include a\u00a0rash called erythema migrans, fever, chills, severe\u00a0fatigue, body aches, headaches, severe joint pain and swelling and neurological problems.\u00a0\u00a0And since the tests for Lyme\u00a0Disease are not always accurate, due to the hundreds of different strands, it is hard to diagnose someone with it, even though it has become the \u201cworld\u2019s fastest growing epidemics\u201d according to the CDC.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

 <\/p>\n

Once Avril Lavigne started feeling some symptoms, she knew something was wrong. She immediately went to her doctors, who told her that her symptoms were due to exhaustion from touring. But Lavigne knew better. She had heard about Lyme\u00a0Disease from a friend and sensing it might be the cause, she brought it up to her doctors. She SENSED something and she SAID something<\/span>. \u00a0But too often many do not listen. \u00a0\u201cI had to fight\u201d says Lavigne. \u201cI had doctors tell me I was crazy and they didn\u2019t want to test me. I had to learn about it completely on my own.\u201d And only with that tenacity and intuition, was she about to see a Lyme\u00a0Disease specialist who was able to diagnosis her with the disease and help her start to recover.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"Olivia\"\u00a0We don\u2019t think of anyone saying no to a pop star, but anyone can be in that position. There have been several celebrities who have been misdiagnosed, but have listened to their intuition and kept pushing until they got the right answers. Olivia Newton-John<\/a> was one of these people who held on to their intuition. In 1992, the beloved singer and actress, found a lump that felt very different. She went to doctors to have it checked, but the results of the mammogram and needle biopsy were negative. But Newton-John still didn’t feel right and pushed further. Finally with a surgical biopsy, they found what was hiding: breast cancer. Now a tireless activist and health advocate,\u00a0she speaks out and says \u201cI don\u2019t say this in any way to scare anybody; it\u2019s just that my intuition was telling me that\u00a0something was wrong. And I had to trust that.\u201d Again, she SENSED something and she SAID something.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Actress Fran Drescher<\/a> fought her own battle with cancer. Drescher had uterine cancer\u00a0and it took years for doctors to find the tumor, at which point it had reached stage 4. Since her recovery she has written a book and founded the\u00a0\"j1zG6eTn\"organization,\u00a0Cancer Schmancer<\/em>,\u00a0where she urges women to speak up and take charge, \u201cWhen you get that weird feeling that something inside you just isn\u2019t right, go to the doctor and find out what\u2019s up. Find out what tests aren\u2019t on\u00a0the menu. Do research on the Internet. Ask your friends. You have to be your own medical advocate.\u201d<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0It feels good to not be alone. \u00a0Just because these women are in the limelight doesn\u2019t make them any less scared or frightened\u00a0of what they face, but they all knew to act on their instincts and push for more answers. They all sensed something was wrong and did not stop, even after the second or third opinions, until they got the medical care they needed. Being afraid that something is wrong is normal, but you should never be afraid to speak out about it<\/strong>, even if you are met with\u00a0disbelief\u00a0like Avril. The person who knows your body best is you, and you might need to be your own advocate and speak up about it. Remember if you SENSE something, SAY something<\/em><\/strong>. It could save your life.<\/p>\n

UPDATE:<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

I wrote this blog post last year, but it is so apropos today that you can see how intuition plays an affect in not only your every day life, but how the government is even putting resources behind it.<\/p>\n
