When going for a checkup do you usually go alone, or along with at least one family member person with you?

I always go alone, I have a genetic condition which demands quarterly doctors checkups and it's been this way all my life.

Most people seem to see doctors right around never, and I really hope that changes as there were times where if I had not gone to the doctor, my condition would've worsened.

And with people getting cancer or heart conditions which could've been prevented with a few visits, I ask that people please get back on health insurance and start seeing your doctors.

To me, going to the doctor is just another task, I see no reason to make my mom go out of her way to come, and she's the only person in my personal life that I desire to spend time with aside from other family.

I definitely wouldn't take my dad, me and him are not doing well together. If I had a girlfriend, I'd take her just so I wouldn't have to spend hours away from her. I'm clingy like that

[SabinaV]

It's true prevention is better than cure. How often do you go for checkups? And it's good you got that in check at least.

[Rangers]

I used to go every month when I was much worse but my condition has improved in a very much night versus day level of magnitude at medical developments.

So now I get bloodwork every month and checkups every 3

[MrChinaski]

I find particular specialists intimidating... a bit of post hospital PTSD, and a bit of them holding large sway over my wellbeing... so sometimes my wife attends with me. GPs and nurses I go alone.

[CupcakeTheDestroyer]

I’m not a child, and I can drive myself, so I usually go alone

[queenofcardio]

I prefer to go alone so I can freely ask questions.

[SabinaV]

Definitely on the questions plus you can concentrate more.

[AviatorTom]

I always go alone. The only exception is when they are doing a test, like a colonoscopy, where I get drugged and they recommend that I don't drive.

[Lliam]

Alone. I don't need assistance or emotional support for a mere checkup.

[Bricealan]

@SabinaV Alone, no family here. Have accompanied a lady friend or rather drove her there and waited for her having a long Stem Cell procedure.

[SabinaV]

@Bricealan Glad you were able to accompany her for bothering to.

[nolabels]

I've had welcome assistance a couple of times in the last few years when visiting doctors.

Usually, though, I'm by myself.

[Telekinetic-Potato]

I'll go alone thanks. Maybe my SO can come if they want to

[WhitneySnow]

At least one family member. I find it comforting.

[AliceGregory]

The only time I brought someone with me to a checkup was my first mammogram.

[lilBigPotato]

Alone. Don't see why I would need anyone else for a checkup.

[genericname85]

as a kid, i'd go with a family member. but as an adult, i go alone.

[SabinaV]

That's not too bad.

[TonyMetal___86]

It depends, sometines alone and sometimes with a family member

[SabinaV]

Yeah same

[LiamS95]

I go alone, don't have any family members to go with me.

[SabinaV]

It's good you get your checkups, is it daily on your end? and how frequent do you get a checkup?

[LiamS95]

At least twice a year.

[KostasKouvalis]

Alone. At my age going with someone would be awkward

[douride2]

Why would I need to take some one with me? I always go alone.

[mrkdvsn]

If and when I would EVER go for a "checkup", it could be either way.

[SabinaV]

Either well as well on my end.

[SabinaV]

Either way as well on my end.

[Sal_Monella]

There is no other member of my family within 100 miles.

[Abbycado]

Always alone.

[SabinaV]

You definitely can inquire about elaborate questions this way.

[Abbycado]

I agree completely in that regard.

[NathanDavis]

I can go by myself

[Nikki1989]

I am always alone.

[OneViewpoint]

Alone. Why would I take someone with me?

[jazzy34]

Since being an adult, by myself. 😊

[Anonymous]

Alone. Ain't nobody got time for that.

[SabinaV]

That's fine too.

[Jeff51]

My wife has been going with me.

[Anonymous]

[Agape93]
