In this video the host talks about how most doctors suggest coming into the office for a physical each year.  The host talks about how you may not need to go to the doctor, instead you can buy a lot of your own equipment and do a lot of the tests yourself.  This will help you save on co-pays.  Of course, you need to go to the doctor if you find that something is wrong through your own testing.  You can take your own blood pressure, check your own urine, and even check your pupils, and heart rate. 

The host goes onto talk about what you can look for and what you should do when you do find that you do have some warning signals.  This is a truly insightful video about when you need to go to the doctor and when you can treat yourself.
