Thank you, for "Lordy, it can get complicated! :)"
Sometimes it is almost understandable (?) why people go to Drs. to have some of their 'stuff' (innards) worked on, altered or removed. But not me! Live or die, I'm doing it MY Way. Of course that's after a while of doing it THEIR Way. Friends often say to me "You're going to die!"
That's when I remind them of some we know who went the Medical Way like 'normal' people and died. Life and health are serious matters, but 'do it yourselfers' are saving travel and waiting time as well as enjoying the adventure of learning and having more control over their lives in a positive way.
A sense of humor, an apple a day and a song in your heart help too.
