Yes thank you Roxie43 Are you saying every part of your body should be cked annually? Isnt that really expensive? I know doctors I've had many & all they want to do is put you thru the gamut of tests using their expensive machines & even then you have to try this prescrition or this one or another. I'm tired of doctors. It's very be- littling to me. It's time for people to take control of their own health. DO the research & dont be afraid to try something new. Im looking toward naturopathy 🙂

I agree I too feel that there are many naturopathic alternatives to try. I think that it's good to explore different avenues. I myself cant' take anything for anxiety or depression as it interacts with another medication i have to take. I also think that relaxtion techniques have their benefits as well. Take care Piglit

We should make every effort to get checked as well as try to live as healthy as we can. I love sweets and with 2 parents whom are diabetic I have to be extra careful. There are a lot of preventative things that we can do and we should also know our community resources because some services can be free.
Best Rox

Roxie43 what kind of community resources are you talking about?

Where I live we have a 211 number that is a wonderful resource. The services are broad and include; assistance with utilities, rent, supportive socialization legal and even health care. Many services are free of charge and many times preventative. However there are also referrals for free insurance and/or programs that offer free and/or low cost services. You have to research your area because I am sure that services like mine exist. My library offers free yoga which is wonderful but I have not taken advantage of this yet. I am tired of hospital settings as well but if we are serious about our full recovery we have to do whatever it takes. Try fun things as well. Ok off to bed but will check back soon.
