discussion DOCTOR & PATIENT

[Guest]

Advice.

Go to your doctor on anything unusual. Do not be fobbed off if it continues "moan like hell" or it could be your life being snuffed out. Your life you only get one shot at it. So go & just be a nuisance. Better to be a nuisance alive than one dead.

Pauline's sister had indications but nothing serious was done by the doctor & she did not persist. She died within 2 weeks of the diagnosis of multiple cancer. Church service to day. Probably all unnecessary.

So ! The good bit. What ever your ailments, what ever your pains, be they physical or mental, go out & within your capabilities enjoy every second day week month & year. There is no Amazon return to sender.

As my youngest grandson "Oliver" said when his mother was in hospital ( she was OK a check up the same day). "When you die you are dead". He then added "but daddy will look after us". Do you not like grand children. Oliver is a little darling.

I think the older generation were brought up not to make a fuss and look up to doctors and their like as if they are gods.So they tend to live with things rather than go to the doctor.Then of course when they finally decide to get help it's too late.

I just feel that with enough time, I will feel better on my own, and I usually do.

I give it 3 or 4 days first, and if there is no improvement or I know I feel worse, then I have no trouble making an appointment.

Overall, I just don't want to be a bother.
