Stubborn? Who? Me?

The evidence would seem to indicate that, yes, I'm stubborn.
Too stubborn to go see the doctor today, anyway.
Does my rib still hurt? Some.
Does it hurt as badly as it did? No.
Did I rest today? No. Not as I should have. Before settling down to rest-ish here in my writing loft, we did a dump run, got breakfast, shopped at two stores, and then came home. But that's all, mostly.
Alas, stubbornness, I never would have thunk it of me.
Hope you all are having/had great Saturdays.

If it's improving on its own, do you really need to seak medical advice?

@DWDavis Most things will heal on their own, and you're only giving your doctor more money by going for every little bump and bruise. Now if it got worse and started to get debilitating, then that's a good reason to go.

@kaylachan I worked for a man once who told me, "God heals; doctors bill you for it."

You may get off with just week or so of pain yet if it isn't bothering you too much.

My Saturday was spent writing at my PC and due to the cold weather we have been having in Florida my sciatica has been bothering me but I just hang in there feeling that stabbing above my leg on my left side, I know the warm weather will come and the pain will go away, I hope you have a nice Sunday and your rib stops hurting,

I am doing my best to enjoy a cloudy day working inside of my home sharing good news stories on this site and working on surveys for my pay day tomorrow evening.

Do you mean the donkeys or yourself. If your back pain still persist, I think you should see the doctor.

@DWDavis I at times feel lazy to go to the doctor.

Why does your rib hurt? Did you do some strenuous activity?

When it comes to doctor visits, I am stubborn as well.
