Before now I thought when I have to take care of myself, visit the hospital or need a medical attention is when am sick, not until I got a job in a pharmacy as s health personnel and now have knowledge on healthcare and having a healthy living.
I always have this severe headache that comes everyday, that made me to depend anaesthetic for a relief and survival, am this careless that i don't bother visiting the hospital for check inorder to know health status, in my mind am not sick to the point of dieing and there's no need of knowing my wellbeing and in my naive mind i thought only people that are sick are only might to visit the hospital.
Not until after having a knowledge about health, I came to know that, ateast I have to visit the hospital twice or more in year to know about my health status. Most especially women we need to be more concern about our health. Some women will be having illness like cancer, fibroid or fertility issues due to lack of care and not visiting the hospital to know their wellbeing, something that would have been given little medical care and advice will then lead to surgery or even more complicated.
Now i take it upon myself to always visit the hospital, i don't need to be sick before I i visit the hospital, like today I went to the hospital to have a checkup, to know my health status. I checked my blood pressure and cholesterol and other things. Knowing what I eat is paramount, I don't just eat anything because am hungry, am always mindful of what I eat. As one advanced in age, I try as much as possible to keep everything in check and balance and as well to eat healthy and eat more of heathy fruit and vegetables, less carbohydrates and calories. I take more of supplements than drugs and lastly I don't joke or skip exercising daily to keep fit and also having a good quality sleep.
There's this saying that says health is wealth and no doubt about that, so ever since i started taking good care of myself and keeping a healthy environment, I feel more save in health wise, mentally and emotionally.
