Annual Medical Check-ups...

"If you don't find time for today's fitness, you are saving that time for tomorrow's sickness..."

(Heart Centre, Pantai Hospital)

Hubby and I had our annual medical check-ups done on the same day. As it was the day after a long weekend holidays, the Executive Screening Centre was crowded. We chose our usual screening packages and completed all tests by noon. Our review for the results was scheduled in a week’s time.

Many feel anxious about the results of their medical check-ups. I'm that person who starts worrying about my doctor's appointments days before my scheduled visit. Just thinking about stepping into my doctor’s room make me nervous and my normally healthy blood pressure will shoot up in his presence. And I often worry that my doctor will brush off my concerns and complaints during the review.

Alhamdulillah, our medical check-up results were better than expected. Hubby’s cholesterol was back to normal. He is advised to discontinue his cholesterol pills. I still have to take my calcium pills supplement daily for my osteoporosis.

Our next follow-up with the specialist will be in three months.
