RE: Contest: Let's talk about self-medicating
I have the feeling that there is a general tendency not to fix things yourself, but to have them fixed. This tendency also seems to carry over into the field when it comes to your own health. And then it's also the case that you're forced to steal a doctor's time just because you need a sick note for your employer.
Nevertheless, I believe that you can successfully treat many illnesses yourself. Which does not rule out asking a doctor for help.
You can imagine that often we see patient who come and already after searching in Internet have right in their guess of the diagnosis or treatment. I usually listen well to patients because they know their body better and everyone has their sixth sense. Of course, often it is exaggerated but them after listening, examination we have another chat and usually have nice plan either for investigation or treatment. But you are right often many small things can be fixed by ourselves. Of course, "sick note" is something that we need and nobody else can issue it, I believe many doctors know about that too.
