Like death bed!! I don't even have a primary care, I usually just go to a clinic and get in and out. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/at-what-point-do-you-go-to-your-doctors-office#post-254498 Fri, 10 Aug 2012 10:39:52 +0000 DillonLion 254498@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Usually after like 4-5 days...but it is rare that I have anything that lasts that long with zero improvements. 2 weeks is a long time to be suffering! I hope you get to a doctor soon and they give you some relief. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/at-what-point-do-you-go-to-your-doctors-office#post-254495 Fri, 10 Aug 2012 10:38:24 +0000 ladyfingers 254495@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I would go, certainly after 2 weeks. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/at-what-point-do-you-go-to-your-doctors-office#post-254117 Fri, 10 Aug 2012 06:38:02 +0000 anonysquire 254117@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I haven't been to a doctor since my pediatric stopped seeing me at like 19 lol. (pathetic I know!) I just have a fear of doctors. I think this weekend I'm going to play around with my diet and see if that helps. I dont want to go in to find out its gas or something silly lol. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/at-what-point-do-you-go-to-your-doctors-office#post-254110 Fri, 10 Aug 2012 06:31:13 +0000 Shimmer 254110@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@anonysquire: oh hey fellow nurse! Ha, yeah I get why you wouldn't want to go in. That's why (before I moved) I had a doc that I was friendly with and he would ask me what I thought I needed when I came in lol. Any chance you can go to a doc that doesn't know you professionally? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/at-what-point-do-you-go-to-your-doctors-office#post-254098 Fri, 10 Aug 2012 06:27:03 +0000 anonysquire 254098@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Shimmer: hello from a fellow nurse! That is part of the reason I don't want to go in, my coworkers.... Ugh! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/at-what-point-do-you-go-to-your-doctors-office#post-254096 Fri, 10 Aug 2012 06:25:42 +0000 Shimmer 254096@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It depends on what the ailment is! I'm a nurse, and the joke is that nurses only go to the doc when they're dying or mortally injured because everything else we figure out on our own lol.</p> <p>I would go in, though. Your spleen (among other important internal organs) is in your left upper abdomen, and when combined with a fever could indicate a nasty infection. Feel better!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/at-what-point-do-you-go-to-your-doctors-office#post-254071 Fri, 10 Aug 2012 06:11:46 +0000 chopsuey 254071@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I usually go to the doctor or call my dad if I don't get better within 10 days? Go see someone! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/at-what-point-do-you-go-to-your-doctors-office#post-254066 Fri, 10 Aug 2012 05:59:18 +0000 anonysquire 254066@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm trying to decide if I should go to my doctor. I really hate going to the doctor and have severe anxiety attacks whenever I do, so I try an avoid them at all costs. I have been sick for 2 weeks with left upper abdomen pain, nausea and a low grade fever.</p> <p>At what point do you go to your doctor? How many days do you have to be sickto justify going? </p>
