Check Up Poll

I would say the most important factor in good health is preventative care. Seeing your doctor for routine check ups and shots is important for good health. How often do you do this?

I try to see my doctor as I am supposed to because you never know what might be going on. If I hadn't been seeing my doctor regularly my diabetes may not have been caught as early as it was.

As a diabetic, I go every 3 months. Every diabetic should if they can, IMHO.

there was no option for i go regularily to my Dr's as needed for meds, so i said that i go when i have to

i see my GP every 3 months for med refills, and then an additional appt for the annual physical, another appt for followup on the lab reports, and if i'm sick (i seldom see the Dr for being sick because they can't do much for a virus)
