Alternative take: lack of accessible, affordable and comprehensive healthcare almost cost me my life.

I'm actually curious. Do you get an annual physical? Does your PCP give you an EKG? That would be the appropriate way to catch this.

I was young back then and was not getting annual physicals. That has changed, along with regular exercise!

Are annual physicals provably worth doing? Or are they the medical profession's version of the polygraph?
