You may be more inclined to talk about your physical ailments, and less inclined to talk about your sex drive. It’s important to tell the doctor everything about you, including stressors like your financial situation. Similarly, if you’re having amazing financial success, that, too, could cause financial pressures that impact your health and relationships. Or they may lead to arguments with your significant other which could cause an impact to your health. If you’re gong through financial difficulty, those financial pressures may be contributing to some of your symptoms. That’s not really anybody else’s business, right? And certainly has nothing to do with your primary care doctor, right? Start talking about these 9 things with your primary care provider right away. If you’re not already having frank conversations with your doctor, some of these might make you blush-especially 3, 4, & 5-but it’s critical to your health to be fully open, honest, and out with your doctor.
