Doctor's are a life threat to athletes !!!!!

1

For a number of years I complained to my doctor about fatigue, lethargy, dizzyness etc.
Family doctor's response, "A man half your age would love to be in the shape you are in " !!!!!
Sept 28 2007, I suffered a heart attack. A simple treadmill test would have shown the problem.

1996:- I was showing all the symptoms of colon cancer. Family doctor did a feces test and declared that there was nothing wrong. Guess I looked too healthy and performing too well !!!
Six months later I was bleeding from the rectum !!!!! Had surgery and am still breathing, no
thanks to the family doctor !!!! A colonoscopy would have shown the problem. NOW I know.

1986:- Confined to bed because of a foot fracture and much swelling.
Noticed a lump, below my sternum, rising up and down, figured hernia and exposed blood vessel, no pain, so perhaps cancer, but cancer does'nt beat, so decided on aneuryism, had three.
Had surgery and am still breathing.

Despite doctor's chest tapping, stethescoping and visual exam, he noticed NOTHING !!!!!

We appear too darn healthy !!!! So if YOU think something is wrong, YOU pursue it.
Actually that goes for everyone.
