Medical friends here advise against the modern day trend of getting lots of tests "just in case" - even routine scans in healthy people can flag up unrelated stuff, which then causes stress, and potential for unrequired further tests and invasive procedures.
One chap in the office went in for a well-man scan, ended up thinking he was going to die due to a tangent one doctor took him on (turned out to be a boring congential thing; he was perfectly healthy with it). When you have a problem, sure, get it checked. But, don't go looking for problems and tests for problems! |
