It usually takes a lot for me to admit that I'm sick enough to ask for a doctor. It would have to happen too often or something before I could justify the reasoning behind it. I know I have a laundry list of health issues so going to the doctor every time I'm the slightest bit sick is pointlesss because I know there is nothing they can do for me.

I do not have insurance so I try to avoid going to the doctor. My husband is a Veteran and gets to see a doctor through the VA. My husband is diabetic and goes to the doctor every three months. As for me, if I get sick I have to suffer. I get to lay in bed and try to sleep it off.

When I get sick I always go to the doctor well my mom makes me go.Still I don't like it how the doctor sometimes does not wash his hands because he can spread germs like that.

Not unless I'm already a week sick. I'm not comfortable with doctors and hospitals. Besides, they are very, very expensive.

I will also prefer not to go to the doctor, if my sick is not very serious. I will prefer not to take so much medicine. When my sick is not serious, i will go for normal eat some pills and rest at home. Because consulting doctor is not cheap in my area. So, only when i am really very ill, then i will consult doctor. After all, i don't really like to eat medicine.

that depends on wether i need t ogo to work on that day or not. For if i am sick during my working days, i need to see a doctor to gain medical leave. If i am sick on my offdays , i usually will not go to see a doctors to save my money. Normally i will just use remedies ways to cure it.

I often see a doctor every time I am not feeling well just like what I did last night when i had difficulty in breathing. I am a very health conscious person and with that, I always want to know the condition of my body. In most situation, early diagnosis can lead to a good prognosis. If you won't go to the hospital or a clinic and see a doctor if you feel weak, then there's a tendency that you're condition will become worst. Self-medication isn't that good unless you are medically inclined, and that you know a lot about the sign and symptoms, as well as the proper treatment for such health problem.

No, i never go to any doctor at all. I go to my pharmacist. He normally gives me and my hubby the piils or medicine that works.

Sometimes it depends on how serious the situation. If it just a normal illness or I just few little uncomfortable, I will search for some medicine in my house and take some rest. If the illness getting worse or the medicine doesn't work then only I will consult a doctor. I usually won't go for a doctor not because of the cost of consulting a doctor, it just that when I fall sick, I prefer stay at home and really have no intention to walk out of my house.

No. I dont like to go doctors place when Im sick, Im little afraid to injection. I will get some pills over the counter and I will manage. I will go to doctor when I itself feel to go there because of my parents compulsion.

Sometimes, I just drink a lot of water and go to bed early. Actually, I hate going to see a doctor. But my mom wants me to do so.
