it's always bad news with those guys; no thanks


Might want to re-visit your day-to-day health routine if every time you're in contact with a doctor or hospital you're only getting bad news.


... why would my day-to-day involve calling a doctor or hospital if im healthy?

_they_ call _me_ with ideas on how to get me to pay them; when i go in, my vitals are strong


What I mean, is that normally, people go to the doctor and hospital for a whole host of reasons, and if the doctor never says "actually, that's nothing to worry about" or "the test was negative" then either maybe you're not going to the doctor enough, or your overall health is so bad you never get "good news" from the doctor when you go there.

But then I remembered that most people here are Americans, and you (if you're American, I'm assuming here) don't go to the hospital/doctor just because, as it costs so much, compared to the life I'm used to, where whenever there is a health worry, you go to the doctor/hospital and they say "don't worry, it's fine" most of the time.
