It's the same here Sue , but you can take responsibility for your own health . We have just one elderly docter , after te second one retired , all the communes around us have no docters, so he is overworked. But that is no excuse for not getting checked up , just the attitude " I am not ill " that is the problem .

you can take responsibility for your own health I think 'should' ought to replace 'can'.

Dunno about globally tim , but certainly in Europe . A lot of people think that there is no connection between their way of life and their health and then panic when there is no docter to prescribe the drug to fix what they have broken . ![:D](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/grin.png)

With obesity comes all types of medical issues such as diabetes and heart disease which results in reduced life expectancy rates.

All went well yesterday. Catheter out at 08:00, then lovenox injection and dressing change at 12:00 . Into the car and off to see the surgeon at 15:00 , still all well , just having to re-educate certain muscles , but should work . The biggest challenge for me is , doing nothing for 4 weeks! As the nice Dr said , it feels like you are fit and can do anything , but it is a trap because you are still healing inside, so 4 weeks of clearing up 35 years of paperwork, I think!

Doing nothing is a serious challenge. What level of inaction is required?. no walks? no cooking? no making beds? no lifting boxes of documents? no gardening? Whatever, you need to think twice before doing anything at all. Not much fun in any of this prostate business.

I've had two hernia repairs and whilst I felt fit after a couple of days each time it was made very clear to me that I had to take it easy for several weeks.

I am still sorting out seventy years worth of paperwork. It’s a great diversion. I feel privileged that I am able to do it. Not much fun, more a sense of self satisfaction.
