A friend of mine thinks she may be having hypoglycemic episodes (passing out) so I am gonna test her blood sugar for her. This got me thinking, Too many of my friends and family avoid going to the doctors. There are always excuses, no insurance, no time, just hating it, and I can sympathize. I waited close to four years before my recent trips. I have been to one doctor or another over then ten times since January and it is really wearing thin on me. with that said, thank goodness I went.
