[QUOTE="retrieverman, post: 4233969, member: 24452"] I’m far from being a health nut, but other than one chiropractor visit last September (which was a mistake I won’t repeat), I managed to avoid doctors for 20 years. Was I sick during that time? Heck yeah, but in my opinion, sniffles, colds, or a sore toes doesn’t necessarily “require” a trip to the doctor. The problem with the vast majority of people is that they’ve been brainwashed into believing they “need” some sort of pharmaceutical prescribed by a doctor to cure an ingrown toenail. Unfortunately, my wife is one of them. I can’t convince her that just because a doctor says she “needs to come back in a week for a follow up” that she really doesn’t have to go if whatever problem she was having is better. :rolleyes2 [/QUOTE]
