I think many people don't even check so won't know they may have some problem with their body.
Even though I exercise regularly and feel great I don't anyhow assume nothing wrong with me. I still do blood and urine test every year without fail. Its not that I want to live as long as possible or afraid of death....if something incurable.is found, I will just prepare for my fate. However, if it is something curable in early stage, I would be negligent if I don't check up to find it and intervene so that I give myself a chance.
As for those who curse me here due to my medical plight due to past disagreement over various issues ....it says alot about the vindictive nature and character of some of the people here.
As your doctor suggested, may not be something serious.
Around a decade agao ganna this result suddely, before that never found any thing on this from the usual annual health check. But in that year suddenly the result show that the RBC rating ish found to be higher than normal at 6.X (can't remember ish 6.5 or 6.6), after series of follow-up check and x-rays finally revealed that the cause ish kidney stones, but heng the doctor said the stones are still very tiny, so advised to control diet (the usual less salt less sugar $hit), drink more plain water daily and will eventually 'flush' the stones out. Didn't even give any medication.
But after a year of dieting and maintain daily minimal plain water intake (at least 4~5 cups of plain water a day beside the usual kopi\teh\softdrink, before this usually only take 2~3 cups of plain water nia), the RBC did drop to below 6 again and able to maintain at 5+ yearly till now. A few x-ray later also show the kidney stones problem had sudsided too.
There was a time when the country asked ordinary men to do extraordinary things.
But now, they'll only do it for money.
