A few months ago (April I think) as part of my annual checkup.

Do you donate blood? Does you country have a "national blood bank"?

(Two questions

)

**gadjo_dilo** · 16th September 2014, 22:50

1. No.
2. That's the country of vampires, remember?

Our blood bank is almost empty. Only poor people donate blood for some bonus.

Would you donate your organs in case of clinical death?

**Starter** · 17th September 2014, 00:46

Yes I'm sure some church or orchestra would love them.

Already have. It's an option on your driver's license here to be an organ donor.

When's the last time you had to seek medical help, other than for routine checkups.

**anfield5** · 17th September 2014, 04:50

3 months ago. I started with a common flu virus that migrated to my heart and started interfering with the electrical impulses that make it work - scary stuff. On the plus side I have lost 25kg (55 ibs) in 3 months

do you worry about your health or do you have an "It'll all be alright" attitude?

**gadjo_dilo** · 17th September 2014, 05:54

Generally I'm a healthy person and I'm not very concerned about health problems. Whenever I have a problem it takes a long time until I decide to go to a doctor. I did it yesterday and now I'm scared to death.

Do you have to offfer a ''material attention'' when you visit a doctor?

**Starter** · 17th September 2014, 13:17

No.

What is a ''material attention''?

**gadjo_dilo** · 17th September 2014, 13:33

Money, a package of coffee, a bottle of whiskey, chocolates, flowers, a bunch of bananas, etc.
Depending on the medical service, the doctor and the financial power of the patient..
I always do despite being a serious contributor to health funds.

Are you embarassed to go to a doctor?

**schmenke** · 17th September 2014, 15:33

No.

Why would you be embarrassed to visit a doctor?

**Storm** · 17th September 2014, 15:56

If you had a huge ego about being supremely healthy and fit etc...(not that I do..but I did pride myself in the past on not taking any meds unless I absolutely had to)

Is the cost of medicines too high where you are?

**schmenke** · 17th September 2014, 16:11

I think so, but pretty much all of the prescription meds that our family buys is covered by either my or my wife’s company health insurance plans (for which we each pay a small annual cost).

Do you have to pay when you visit a doctor?
