[quote=Anonymous]This is a nice list for someone who has no actual health problems. For those of us with existing chronic health issues, getting a colonoscopy or a Pap smear is not high on the list because we already have to dedicate a lot of our bandwidth to managing health issues, and I'm sorry but I cannot dedicate effort to finding a specialist and scheduling appointments for a preventative procedure for a medical issue I don't even have any symptoms for. I get why it makes sense to do it, but I've already had surgery twice in the last 5 years. I don't want to have to go under general anesthesia again for a colonoscopy. I want people to leave my body the eff alone. Also, admittedly, part of me is scared that some of those tests would come back positive and I'd have to deal with another thing. I do make sure to go to the dentist regularly and I exercise religiously when I can physically do so.[/quote]
