His exercise treated the "warning symptoms" but not the problem.


It's possible that exercise masks rather than treats warning symptoms. In any event, it appears that additional diagnostic testing is recommended for some of us. Which of us remains to be figured out.

Many diseases progress without symptoms. Which is why we have mammograms, pap smears, prostate tests, and so forth. Go get 'em!


Which is exactly what our doctors are doing when they prescribe stains/diuretics. Masking/treating the symptom and leaving the "problem" not only untouched, but added to.

As to mammograms, I'm waiting for the sonogram one to get to at least within an hour of me. My mother has large, dense breasts and goes. But, I've read where mammograms aren't effective in reading large, dense breasts and you get sent for a sonogram anyway. Not to mention I've also read where getting radiated like that once a year may actually cause breast cancer. I'm like a 34/36F.
