Staying healthy is a lot about taking care of yourself and that is very important, but you still should make sure your getting good medical advice.
There are three easy ones to have a yearly a physical, eye exam and denial check up. None of these take much time and can end up saving you time and money.
Yes I said money. If you let medical issues get out of hand and you need a lot of advance treatment it can get very expensive. Or it can cause you a lot of future medical problems that might have been avoided if you had found out about the problem earlier through an annual checkup.
Here is my story. A couple of years ago I found out that I had type two diabetes. Because I found out soon enough I have had no ill effects from diabetes. I learn how to eat right and exercise, will I exercised anyways. Now all I do is check my blood daily for my blood sugar count. So far everything is going will and that is because I found out about it early and took corrective action.
My second story is about my eye exam. My main reason an eye exam is to see if I have had any change in my vision so I can get the corrections in my glass, yes I prefer glasses. But just as important I want to be checked for glaucoma. Will at my last eye exam I had no glaucoma, but there seem to be a problem in my right eye, so off to a retina specialist. He found out what my doctor suspected and that is I had hole in my right retina. The specialist told me if he with a hole in my retina fifteen years ago he would pate me on my back and say there is nothing he could do.
Today is a different story. He told me he could fix it and that operation takes less than one hour and the best of all it would be done as an outpatient. I asked when could it be done and he checked and said next Thursday. I agreed and now it was just waiting for the operation.
The operation took the allotted time and the recovery was short and I was on my way home. Everything had gone will up to me getting home, will nothing went wrong when I got home but I soon realized that keeping your head down all day and sleeping with you face clown at night was a lot hard than I ever expected.
If I did my job right by keeping my head down, and there reason for that is they put a gas bobble in your eye to hold the retina to the back of the eye, I would be fine. If you are not looking down the gas bobble isn’t pushing the retina toward the back of the eye.
The point is either of these medical issues would have been unknown to me if I didn’t have an annual checkup, thus if I didn’t have the checkups I could have had some major health problems later.
Be healthy and wise get your annual checkups, you’ll be better off for it.
