Five years for me!

From the front desk help, to the nurse, and finally the doctor the experience was a nightmare!

After that I decided to take more responsibility for my own health and took action. I started studying medicine, doing research on illnesses when I get sick, and started living a healthier life style.

I use to be sick all the time...no longer.

Because of the internet I do my own research, order books, subscribe to medical journals, and try to live a healthy life style.

The dividends can't be measured!

I haven't taken any drugs (Legal) in over 4 years!..and sleep like a baby!

BTY...49..male

Using the term "doctors" as you did in your subject line could be construed as improper.

August of 2008 when I was stung by a hornet while running on some trails. I had hives by the time I ran the last mile to my car. By the time I drove to urgent care, my lips and tongue were swelling and I was having difficulty breathing. A few shots of steroids and I was good as new, except for some itching.

Let's see I had a serious ear infection that could have cost me my hearing in one ear. What would you have done?

Self reliance is good, but sometimes you need a doc.

I do a lot of the same things.

Should be interesting next year when you have to give yourself a colonoscopy (as I'm sure is recommended by those medical journals you've been reading).
