In our family this would be an example of personal responsibility; If the doctor said to you that you have a history of colon cancer, you should have a colonoscopy, you would not ignore him.

If the doctor said that frequent urination is often a symptom of aging but could be a symptom of testicular cancer and it would be wise to have more tests, then you have more tests.

If the doctor suggests that you wear a Holter Monitor for 24 hours because he hears an unusual rythem, you wear a Holter Monitor.

If your doctor says that your magnesium is low and that adding leafy greens and fish into your diet would help, you add leafy greens and fish to your diet.
