Do You Worry About Your Health?

Posted on November 10, 2007. Filed under: Health | Tags: , , , |

The rich are more worried about their health than the poor. For the poor , it is whatever comes and they cannot do anything about it.They are resigned to their fate.They can only pray to God for the miracle healings.

The cost of health care is escalating and can be very expensive .If they do not have health insurance , they may not get the right treatment and will wait for death in some poor and ill equip government hospital . The government hospital could be over strained and have too many patients to handle.

If they can be cured ,OK .If they cannot , then they accept the final decision. There is nothing more they can do about it.

The poor don’t have much diseases except the poverty sickness while the rich has many kinds of diseases of having too much money and don’t know where to spend..LOL!

On one hand , there are those who says that we need checkups and screenings for early detections . Many people pay for a health check packages, even though they are well and in the fine of health. They go as a precaution and for early detections.

I don’t go for any checkups or any screenings unless they are free..LOL! I think it is a waste of money and it can also cause you to worry about the results when they detect something which is normal.

I have heard stories of people who are sick and went for a battery of test and still inconclusive . What the heck? If they cannot find the causes , what’s the point of going for the normal checkups when they simply don’t disclose much informations except to certify that you went for a checkup and screening at such and such a center and on which day .

They told me I need to go for checkups. I have never been to a single checkup and screening in all my life and even to a GP unless I am very sick. I have to thank God for my good health .

Most health care are now privatise and the fee’s can be quite exorbitant. I guess , we all need to live a fit and healthy lifestyle.

After all those testings , will they have the peace of mind? Are those testings reliable? Did they missed something ? I dont know how much you can trust those readings and their equipments.

For me , if you are feeling well, there is no need to go for a health check unless there is something that has been bugging you.

My experiences with the health services left much to be desired.My father complained about his throat , a feeling like a fish bone stuck in his throat.

He was hospitalized for three days and a battery of test was carried out on him. In the end , the hospital wrote an intro letter to an ENT specialist to confirmed it was throat cancer. The hospital dare not confirmed throat cancer.

The ENT specialist ,just shone a torchlight into my father throat and said it was cancer!!!Ha! Ha! It was so simple, no need to stay 3 nights and be charged exorbitantly for the hotel stay and going through all those useless tests and screenings.

The health sector is very commercialized now and it is all about making money for their investors.
