Do you go to the doctors?

    When you're ill or have a health problem, do you go to visit the doctor or do you just live with it and wait for it to go away?
     
    The last time I went to the doctor's was on February 25th. I just wanted drugs so that I didn't have to deal with stomach pains and such that I was having. I typically just go to sleep and hope the problem is gone when I wake up. Unless the problem doesn't go away after a few days, I go get it checked out.
     
    I visit a doctor in most cases. If I find it unnecessary to go visit a doctor, then I won't. I'll just lie in bed with my teddy bear if it's something minor or something I can deal with on my own. C:
    If the illness persists, then yeah.. I get out of my bed right away. I visit the doctor's for checkups and stuff too.
     
    I usually visit the doctor, unless it's something small like a cold, then I just rest and let myself get better.
     
    Yup. Almost every two weeks now. I've been to the hospital about 14 times last month :/
     
    Nope... I really never do. I don't get sick very often though, and when I do it's just a cold/flu.
     
    I put it off for as long as I can because I don't want to waste their time with things that probably aren't a massive problem. If something develops rapidly or is unusually wrong, then I might go instead.
     
    This is probably going to sound horribly arrogant, but I never really get sick enough to need to go to the doctor's. Apart from a hernia operation when I was 8-years-old, I've never been to a hospital for anything. I get colds fairly frequently, but nothing more serious than that... so I haven't been in many years. To be honest, I'm not even sure if I'm still registered with one! x_x
     
    I only go to the doctor every 6 months or every year for my physical or when I need medical records for school or something because both of my parents are in the medical field (my father is a doctor and my mother is a nurse), so I have no need to go to the doctors. I'm never really that sick anyway, to be honest.
     
    I almost never get sick (maybe a minor cold like once a year) and when I do I don't see a point in going to a doctor. Plus doctors cost money I don't have. I did go to one once last summer when I suspected something, but nothing was wrong, and whatever it was ended up resolving itself (I think I was just dehydrated or something). Totally blew a bunch of money for no reason :/
     
    I go to the doctor about once a year for a physical, but that's pretty much it. I have to be really really sick to go to the doctor otherwise, and never go for just a cold or anything.
     
    I don't remember the last time I went to the doctor, meaning that I go to him every once in a while, either for a checkup or for an illness.
     
    It depends on how ill I am. Normally, however, I don't go to the doctor until I'm so ill that I can barely get out of bed. Because honestly, if I went to the doctor every time I wasn't feeling well, I'd be freaking living there.
