HEALTH

In a world consumed by image, we often concentrate on
how we look on the outside and seldom forget what we
look like on the inside. Recently I had the opportunity
to get a complete ultrasound health screening at ClearPix
Ultrasound. I walked in with complete confidence that
the ultrasound would show nothing was wrong with me,
because I hadn’t been experienceing any pain or anything.
Unbeknownst to me, not only did I have one issue, not even
two issues, but THREE issues that needed to be addressed
by my general practioner. After taking my ultrasound
readings to my doctor, my issues turned out to be minor,
but did require additional testing and medication, along
with a complete lifestyle change. If I had not caught these
issues, they could have turned into a major illness down
the road. What’s my point? Easy. Be proactive with your
health. We have so many resources available to us to be
screened for our health and it takes so little time to have it
done. I was in and out of ClearPix within 45 minutes and
prevented something drastic from occuring just by being
proactive in my health. You owe it to yourself to take care
of yourself!
