Separate sensation, meaning, supposed cause, and decision; personal explanation does not replace needed medical assessment.
Questions explored
Must I reject a sensation?
No; questioning explanation does not cancel experience.
May the cause remain unknown?
Yes; action can meet an available need.
Does recording replace medical assessment?
No; description conveys experience rather than determining diagnosis.
Must I observe continuously?
No; attention can be limited by a particular task.
