why is it when you go to the doctor?
438901
When you ask your doctor for a check-up, they will want to check you for serious conditions that can be caught early and successfully treated.\n\nThese screening exams are chosen based on your age, gender, family history and risk factors and what the doctor found on the physical exam.\n\nA good check-up will usually include basic bloodwork (a CBC, liver and kidney function tests, cholesterol and blood sugar), EKG  and sometimes a Chest X-ray. It can also include specific bloodwork (such as checking for prostate cancer) or tests such as a mammogram and PAP smear.\n\nMost of the diseases that these tests check for can't be identified with a simple physical and diagnosing them before they have symptoms can lead to simple and curative treatment.

Seriously, go to the doctor.  That's what he/she is there for.

*laugh* Because some of us like exposing our problems to the world? Personally, I hate doctors and in the time zone here, I'd be lucky to get anyone on the phone, so I ask here for immediate advice. If the resounding answer is "go to the doctor", then I will go in the morning. But sometimes (and especially for pregnancy questions), the answer isn't that simple and people are looking for answers and other questions to ask. At the very least, there is a support system here that isn't at the doctor's.\n\n~~Naomi

Have a frank discussion with your doctor and find out why it's happening.  Then go from there.

Means you're doctor prescribed  meds for you already without the need for you to return to his office again because your diagnoses is one that requires many doses over a period of time.  Now you get more meds each time you run out.

It would be best if you called up your doctor to ask that kind of question, since he knows your health history and what's good and bad for you specifically.

You're in deep doo-doo. Why are you asking US instead of a Doctor, most likely in an ER.
