OK, about these health check-ups!!



Miracle of all miracles!!! Dad and I finally went to get check ups after much probing from our children. I had had a little bit of discomfort in my chest. Doesn't happen often but when it did it hurt!! So ok, dad and I sign up with this insurance and decided to go the whole nine yards, getting a complete overhaul! ha. Now for the moment of truth.
I actually felt it accomplished nothing!! Dad felt more or less the same way I did. He learned he had a little high blood pressure so he started taking these pills and now says they do nothing. I had a Sonogram and the E.K.G.and the blood work ,and NOTHING!!! We were shuffled around to this doctor and another. Actually most did nothing at all except listen to your heart, take blood pressure and ask a couple questions. OH! almost forgot the most important one , pee in a bottle! ha,ha! I have personally started taking a aspirin a day and guess what, I feel terrific! I truly believe that one doctor sends you to another and everyone gets a little share of the wealth! $$$$$$. So now how do I feel ? Speaking for myself, I personally believe its a conspiracy!! ha. mama

  1. glad those initial tests all checked out great, but those were all the preliminary test for the more complicated test (required before they can do the other). what about the stress test momma? this is the one your doctors recommended you get as it's the test to truly show the condition of the heart. waiting to hear....
