Section 2: Your Goals of Care

Help us understand what matters most to you in medical decisions.

Treatment Philosophy

On a spectrum from comfort-focused to aggressive prevention, where do you fall?

Comfort-Focused

My priority is quality of life now.

  • I want to minimize medications and their side effects
  • Only take treatments with very large, proven benefits
  • I'd rather accept health risks than medication burden
Selective

I want high-value treatments only.

  • I'll take medications with clear, substantial benefit
  • Avoid treatments where burden outweighs benefit
  • Quality of evidence matters to me
Balanced

I want reasonable prevention with attention to burden.

  • I'll consider most recommended preventive treatments
  • Some medication burden is acceptable for benefits
  • I trust guidelines but want them personalized
Proactive

I want to maximize prevention.

  • I'll take medications with any proven benefit
  • Willing to accept burden for potential gain
  • Living longer is very important to me

SYMPTOM Relieves symptoms without altering disease (e.g., pain meds, loop diuretics)
REPLACE Replaces missing hormones/nutrients (e.g., levothyroxine, vitamin D)
